1. Look forward to the pics
How nice to have them in a gallery

I make jewelry myself - nothing worthy of a gallery - and knopw how validating it is when they're sold, or when someone puts in a special order.

30. my dearest friend (like a sister, really) has been doing this for
years. she HAD to get ready for this show and she was pushed for time so, i offered my help and spent the WHOLE 3 and half day week-end at her place. she told me what stones she wanted in the opening and while she worked on some really complicated beautiful stuff, i played around with theses gorgeous gem stones. she liked what happened and so-- into the opening they go!!!

these are truly my very FIRST pieces!!! :blush:

i am BESIDE myself with excitement :bounce:
