A
few weeks back, my birthday week to be exact, I received the best gift ever.
Mother Nature gave me her finest. Taking my regular route mid-morning, I headed
out to Dundee to meet with my hairstylist for a cut and color and some fun girl
chat. A few blocks from home everything seemed to look quite different than is
usual for this time of year. I pulled my Jeep off road to get a closer look of
the white bark birch trees that line the property where I had stopped. The bare
branches and trunks were covered in frost; not glistening ice, but soft
shimmery frost. The sky was white and soft. It was magical – I felt as if I was
standing in the middle of the best snow globe ever.

Gemstones in the Rough
Wow -- it seems like all the spring "books" are highlighting jewelry pieces that incorporate rough or raw gemstones in their designs. I sometimes forget that being small potatoes has it benefits. In this case, I can respond with new items on the turn of a dime. Last year when I found some gorgeous and intriguing raw crystal quartz while I was rummaging through the thousands and thousands of gemstones in Tucson, it didn't take me long to get the news to all of you. In fact, not to toot my own horn; but two days after I was back in the studio I had new pieces posted and for sale on my site. (Toot, toot!)
