When working with gems, one first has to decide whether to fit a gem into a particular design or built around the gem that catches your eye. There are numerous colors to select from. I lean in several directions....red being one of them....however, more often than not I reach for the ocean, the sky, the blues. I can not even pick a favorite among the pales and deep blues. I can build a wondrous item just from a glance at those beauties. My daughter's birth and death were both in September, as well as the birth of my beloved husband, perhaps lending a hand to my obsession.
I must admit to having pep talks with myself.....filled with reminders that I am creating to "sell" and therefor must branch out from all I hold dear.
But don't misunderstand, this girl never turns down a diamond (or topaz for that matter)! They come in blue too, you know!
