Sanding away surface scratches from your Jewelry

I just can’t live without my sandpaper these days. When I first started I had no idea what grits to use so remove the surface scratches off of my jewelry. So, I thought It might be useful to some to post some of the grades I like to use myself to get the surface scratches off of my sterling silver.

Debt consolidation for America

I think it is safe to say with the last couple of years behind us that all of America needs some serious debt and finance counseling. It has been so long since anyone in America has taught serious debt management, on a wide scale that we’ve forgotten how to get out of debt. We create more debt in an attempt to reclaim what we’ve lost thus perpetuating the cycle

Educational Magazine

I think one of the many things wrong with our educational system today is how under prepared teachers are. Lets face it with Twitter, Facebook, and texting our kids are getting information as fast as the speed of light, so why aren’t our teachers getting up to date relevant information constantly? Scholastic has help for those teachers who are struggling to keep up with their educational magazine teachers can keep up to date with the latest trends, and information on every aspect of education!

January’s Specials!

January’s weather has turned from snow to rain; I can’t wait for more snow! I am working (and have been on the new Spring jewelry for this year, and there’s something about a heavy coating of snow on the ground that is inspirational when it comes to jewelry. Meanwhile, I’ve also been getting ready for Valentine’s Day and working on a special page of earrings! Above are two bracelets featuring the Red Magma colour from Swarovski; I love this colour, a muted orangey red with a deep tone. The first is a silver bangle bracelet with Karen Hill Tribes tube beads and red magma crystals in the cosmic shape

Garnet: The January Birthstone

Did you know that the garnet was named after a fruit? The ancient Greeks thought that garnets looked like the seeds of the pomegranate – thus, garnet! In the Bible, garnet is mentioned fairly often, usually called carbuncle. The Victorians were especially fond of garnets and mixed them often with pearls, opals, coral, cameos, and one of my favorite combinations, turquoise

The Sparkle of Christmas

It is truly the Christmas season! Every year, it creeps up on me, it seems, earlier and earlier. NO, I don’t have my Christmas shopping done; the tree is not yet up (it should arrive by Fedex on Thursday, a nice fresh Fraser fir) and I am as busy as I can be! And it’s only the 7th of December – I can remember when that date would have meant ages and ages until Christmas, but not any more

The Aftermath of Thanksgiving!

I love Thanksgiving; it is my favorite holiday of the year. This year was especially good because we had children at Thanksgiving – my new grand-daughter and a three-year-old guest. What was remarkable was that we managed to have Thanksgiving here in Arlington, in an ill-equipped apartment instead of at home where all the good china, crystal, and pots and pans are

Gleam, Glimmer, Shimmer!

According to Vogue and other important fashion magazines, gold is back in fashion. Of course, I don’t think that it was ever out! I love the gleam of gold, and while I will concede that there are certain gemstones that are best served by sterling silver or white gold, (think rose quartz) I generally prefer my own jewelry to be gold or a mixture of silver and gold. One of my favorite combinations is lapis, carnelian, and turquoise; all of these gemstones look great with silver (although lapis always looks better with gold), but put them all together and you’ve just got to have yellow gold to match the richness of the colours! Above , a unique bracelet with lapis, carnelian, and turquoise accented with 14 karat goldfilled elements (with the exception of the toggle which is vermeil), and below, the matching necklace and dangling earrings

The November Birthstone: Citrine

I’m very fond of citrine, the gemstone ranging from a pale yellow to a dark orange. First, I just love the colour yellow; second, citrine is an extremely versatile gemstone that looks great with many different colours. I wear it often with black because I like the contrast of the yellow against dark colours
