HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011

A new year and I have a part time job at the college. That helps my family and gives me more money for my interest. I'm going to try and buy Quartz crystals and Amethyst this year.
As far as my coins go the goal is 1921 D a very hard year to get, good grade will just have to do
Proud to see silver in the $30 range though I would collect them even if they had no value. Beautiful coin and it makes an impressive circulated set. Plenty of yarn for Barbies and afghans, and new shawls and jackets. I have plans for learning new things this year.

NEW CRYSTALS





03/25/10 I have to say this is the most beautiful crystals I have seen yet.
These were iron oxiode encrusted. I used Iron Out as Rodney Moore
suggests. I run them through a dishwasher and sonic cleaner. Most comes out like the pictures above. There is skeletal. :O I find myself wondering what the crystals went through. Everything about them says something huge happened. I long for fossilized Venus clam shells. I can see the imprints of the dog tooth calcite. There is Hematite looks like quicksilver
in the cracks and crevices. These have sharp clear lines and great clarity. I am going to make some wraps. I think I will try putting groups of crystals together for the wedding groups. I may try my hand as some crochet gloves as well.
