Lol. I don't chat enough to really get very high up the list. I might not even make it past you.

I'm just dumping them there, hopefully there will be a prize for the top ten?
I've slowed down on my chatting. But I am really enjoying the people I have met here. I'm a bit heartbroken about Syn, but after Ernya...

[Kaderin Triste]

I don't know about top 10, but I think the announcement said something about there being a prize for everyone who donates to the bucket.

Yeah. Everyone here is pretty cool. I just struggle to get to being comfortable chatting with new people...but that will come with time.

WEll you know me, I just dive in and try not to irritate people. Honestly at night I get so tired that sometimes I can barely get out what I want to say and my sentences are so oddly phrased. Oh well ... hahaha

[Kaderin Triste]

Haha...yeah you are pretty good at just diving in and meeting/chatting with people!
Ah...I should probably be working on crafts right now. I actually kind of want to try learning a new chainmaille weave even though I have other projects to make still...

I need to get in there and do some more jewelry. I saw a woman the other day had a beautiful pendant on, she told me how much she loved it and how she felt it was helping (it was a Kambaba Jasper) and I had made it, she bought it at my friends shop and I sell jewelry there.

[Kaderin Triste]

Oh wow, that's really cool!
How amazing it must feel to have someone be that excited about something you made...

[Moonshadow]

It was actually very validating. Because I make the stuff and I don't charge a lot, because I want people to get a benefit from the stones I make the jewelry out of.

[Kaderin Triste]

That is really cool.
I actually have a couple gemstone pendants, but I'm not sure what stones a couple of them are.

[Moonshadow]

If you take pics and let me see I could probably tell you.
I love stones, and know quite a bit about them.

O vO;; I just like the colors. What do they actually do?

[Moonshadow]

Different stones help with different things. I sleep with Lapis Lazuli next to me, because it calms and balances my chakras.
Also amethyst helps you concentrate on spiritual things and helps you to sleep.

[Kaderin Triste]

I will do that!
I also have some stones that aren't pendants that I will photograph. I want to eventually have them made into pendants somehow.

[Moonshadow]

Making pendants is so easy actually.
I have bales and sometimes I just glue the bale to the back of a pretty "worry" stone. The Stones are about $3, if I bought it made into a pendant it would be $35-50! The price of silver has gone up crazy.

[Kaderin Triste]

A lot of the stones I have are rough shapes, but I know that if I can find the right size and style of bale, most should be pretty easy to turn into pendants.
I photographed them (though my phone doesn't take the best quality of pics) and will upload tomorrow at work so I can share it with you.
I think (but could be wrong) that most or all of the purple stones I have are amethyst. And I know that one of the stones is tiger's eye and one is rose quartz.

All great stones. I get a lot of my pendants on eBay from India, they are so cheap, its free shipping and they are incredibly honest. I got sent the wrong size once (I took a pick w/ a ring dildo -that's what I call the sizer) and they said sorry, just keep the ring and we will refund the money.
