Green Amethyst

I enjoy reading about different stones that I use. Sometimes the light basics and other times its interesting how they form and what they are used for. My recent favorite stone has been green amethyst. I always thought that amethyst was just purple, so I started to do some research (which means google it). Green amethyst is also called parsiolite, or green citrine. Just like citrine and amethyst its part of the quartz family of minerals. Just a little fun fact. Or fun for me, don't forget I'm a science nerd.

Girl party follow up.

The "Girl Party" went well today. We had a fair turn out and raised a bit of money for JDRF. Yea!!

So what is next, its time to start shopping for Christmas! I had a wise customer today that is making a wish list for her husband. Its a great way to make sure you get just what you want under the tree this year.

Fall Fav's

Well I promised some of my favorite fall pieces so here they are. The dark red muscovite with its shimmering gold tone flecks are a great pick for fall. The necklace to match is just as fab! The next in the line up is olive quartz wrapped in gold. This one is generous on the sparkle! The final pick is smoky quartz and garnets. I love the rich brown color of the quartz. So let your jewelry be inspired by the nip in the air, or what is suppose to be the nip in the air.
