Hi Everyone and I hope this blog finds you well. All the buying has been done and it's now all packed up and winging it's way back to OZ. I'm sad to leave Bangkok but looking forward to coming home as well.
I missed the last two shows for health reasons so it was lovely to get back to such a wide variety of beautiful stones to choose from, and I think I chose well. With 80 shelves of Jewellery in the shop it looked pretty full when I left - but it was fun filling in all the gaps I knew were there and I managed to spend too much, as usual.
There weren't any mind blowing 'new stones' that I'd never seen before but I found a lovely range of well made rings and earrings with small but perfect gems that are very affordable. Sadly everything has increased in price once again, but with some good deals and a smaller margin I'm glad to say that I don't think you'll see much difference in price, but an improvement in quality.
This will all take until Christmas to upload properly but I do want them to be available to you ASAP so once again I've priced it all in its' bag and I'm offering a 15% discount if you buy direct from the new stock. A bonus for you and it saves me uploading describing and pricing. it takes so much time to photograph, measure, upload and describe each piece but because I love each one I can't allow myself to take short cuts. So if you can get into the shop, don't forget to ask for the new stock.
Oh I also put in some of my stones to be set for next time. Covid disrupted that just as I was getting started and it's so good to get back into that routine again.
I'm happy to say that I've also recovered a lot of health and strength, working out most mornings and sticking to my Ketovore diet ( except for a well deserved scotch or two or three ) There'll still be some on going treatment but the worst part is over now.
Well that's all for now. Love from the Hearts as Always.
