The perfect gift from Estonia
My honey came home from a trip in Estonia (the Baltic region). He said he bought me the perfect gift - an amber heart pendant with sterling silver finding. So sweet of him! :-) He told me that the heart is made of genuine stone and not imitated amber. I asked him how he knew it was real amber. Honey said he asked the shop assistant to prove that the pendant is made of genuine amber. First, she showed him by testing that the amber heart float on salt water. Second, she showed him amber that rubs against clothes get electric.

Course in gemstones and minerals
For a couple of months ago, I applied for an evening course in gemstones and minerals at university. Last week, I received a mail with the message that I have been accepted to attend the course. Yeah! :-) I am really looking forward to learn more about gemstones. The course starts in September.

Secret beader gift 6 finished
Yesterday, I spent a couple of hours to make a jewellery set for my secret beader in the Secret beader gift exchange. A bracelet and a pair of earrings made in her favourite colours red (different shades), green and copper. I have not sent it to her yet, but I will post a picture of the jewellery set after she has received the gift.
