      I am a gemstone cabochon addict….lol. Lately, I find myself delving deep into the land of gemstones. I’m so amazed at these beautiful stones that have been forged by the earth and polished by man. I get so excited to use each one in a new piece of jewelry.

      The pieces above are rutilated quartz cabochons….ooh la la!!!

      The ring above is also rutilated quartz. It is the most incredible stone. Take a good look at the thin shots of gold color…..swoon!!!

      Australian Chrysoprase

      This is an Australian Chrysoprase. I’m not really attracted to the perfect stone. I love the imperfect with a lot of variation. This stone fits that bill.

      Prehnite

      These are my prehnite cabs. I have so many cabochons that are the bluish color so it’s nice to mix it up a bit.

      This sterling silver ring houses a large golden prehnite. It’s already gone to a new home but I wanted to show how pretty that stone was.

      My man, Rob, is such a doll. He often gifts me with gemstone cabochons that he finds. He also came with me to the Gem and Mineral show in Tucson and another show yesterday. He found these stones for me. They are *Good Day* chrysocolla. Love them!!! My pic does not do them justice!!

      Bisbee turquoise and Morenci turquoise rings

      For months I have been playing with WordPress on my own. I was able to do some things but getting pretty frustrated about others. A friend of mine suggested a professional….yeah!!! So here is the new website design!!! Thank you so much, Eileen!!!!

      I’ve been busy since I last posted. I’ve made a lot of new pieces so I’ll only post a few today.

      The rings above are turquoise. The one on the left was a commissioned Bisbee piece and the other is a stunning Morenci turquoise. That blue is out of this world.

      I made this silver leaf pendant last week. The back has *I AM* stamped on it. You can fill in the blanks……I AM…..strong, fearless, brave, a warrior……you get the drift.

      Sterling earrings

      Simple sterling earring. Love these babies. They’ve already gone to a new home.

      When I saw this crazy lace agate it reminded me of the earth. I added moons and the sun to it and the quote….The earth turns to gold in the hands of the wise. What a beautiful saying. I’m really quite pleased with how this turned out.

      Every single time I open my boxes to see the turquoise I’m still shocked how amazing each piece is. I took this large Bisbee for this bracelet. I’ve added extra links so that it can fit a large or small size.
