Jeweler and agency win advertising award

Lily & Co. Jewelers and marketing, advertising and public relations firm Spiro & Associates won an award from the Florida Press Association 2008 Advertising Contest.

The ad, entitled "May All Your Holiday Wishes Come True," won a firstplace award for Best Use of Color in a paper with a circulation of under 7,000. The ad was submitted

by the Island

Sun on Sanibel.

"We have always known that the work done for us by Spiro & Associates is top notch," said Dan Schuyler, co-owner of Lily & Co. "It's just nice to win an award that recognizes their efforts to help us bring a unique and fun atmosphere to our island jewelry gallery."

Lily & Co. is Sanibel's first jewelry gallery, combining fine jewelry and an art gallery in one location.

"It is so great to do work for a client who enjoys pushing the envelope," said Spiro & Associates creative director and vice president, Steve Martin. "Lily & Co. allows us to flex our creative

muscle and incorporate

their dogs and high-end jewelry into ads that are both funny and compelling."
