Well I received a box from a nice person on the RTH forum. She was kind enough to send a box of leather pieces plus a few gifts. People in the rock hobbies are so kind. I was wanting some of that leather to use to polish boulder opal. I have enough now to last a very, very long time. I’m gonna post some pics. I have also gotten the chance to do a lil cabbing and weaving silver. I have to send a lil thank you, don’t I? 🙂

Well I have finally finished a wrap. I’ve been taking it sorta easy for a few days, due to my lil accident. Its been ok tho, just a little recharging. This is a piece that you will notice in a prior post that just wasn’t finished. The flower is from outside of my house just like the others.
Thanks for coming by!!

Well its been a great few days of cabbing and wrapping silver. Ok a lil shopping added to the mix made for a great little vacation.
I wrapped a few faceted stones and I’m really enjoying the shine they put out. Its almost to the point I want to learn how. Almost because of the price of a faceting machine.
Well here’s a few pics of some cabs. They are pietersite, 2 seraphinite, turtella, moss agate, flourite, a pink botswana agate, and a porcelain jasper. The wraps are peridot, garnet, and blue green tourmaline.
As for the shopping I upgraded my Iphone. I had wanted to since the new 3gs was unveiled, but every time I had visited the Apple store or AT&T store they were out. Not this time, yay! I like the camera and have had no issues, but I really hadn’t expected any. On my last one I was pushing the limit on memory space, so with the upgrade I have lots more room. My husband was still using his 2g so he got the hand me down 3g and was happy with that. His 2g will be a nice itouch or back up phone if its ever needed. Still love my Iphone. 🙂
Until next time…
