Fall's Fashion Gemstones...

Fall's Fashion Gemstones
With the colors of falling leaves, gemstones that include rich red garnets, golden quartz, soft green peridot, beautiful aquamarine, rich yellow citrine, ivory pearls, rich browns and greys in freshwater pearls and darker garnets and the fabulous multi shaded, dark hunter greens and wonderful mauves of tourmalines, make the season one to enjoy and show off natures true natural gems.  I love this time of year and when designing new pieces I always seek out the natural shades of the season.  Working with natural stones, along with beautiful gold and sterling silver accents, make it tough to walk away from the work table each day.  How wonderful it is to be able to work at what makes you so happy.  It has a way of taking away the stress of our crazy world even if it is only for a few hours a day. Whether you work with gemstones, take beautiful photos, cook yummy foods or be a wonderful Mommy, enjoy each moment and forget about the craziness, if just for a few minutes a day.  Stress is so bad for all of us so whatever your passion, live it a little everyday and it will show in everything else you do.  Don't forget, coming out this week is the photos of my Fall Giveaway. Don't forget to check back often for all the details. Here's a hint - it was from my favorite thing to do!
