Meredith, I'm going to the International Gem & Jewelry Trade Show today with my girlfriends. This is something we do a couple of times a year. We are jewelry hounds. I was making beaded jewelry for a while, but not lately. Personally, I like cut stones. Love things that sparkle. Haven't gone to the show in over a year. I guess I just fell off the wagon: Not really anything I want to buy or need, but jewelry is never a need, just an obsession. I don't buy beads and findings anymore, just whatever catches my eye. (that I can afford). Maybe I'll pick up a few Christmas gifts today for my nieces and then won't feel so guilty.
