Hi Everyone hope is all going well and special commiserations to those experiencing wild weather over the last week. We had our own experience Friday Night ~ Thunderstorms, cloudburst, the rain so heavy it flooded the front of the shop. On one of our busiest nights of the year, half of our lights and EFTPOS were down. Happily I did lots of electronics at Uni so was able to isolate the damaged circuits and restore primary functions. Haha I remember changing a light bulb for mum when I was 7 yo. and sticking my finger into the socket just to see what electricity felt like. Maybe that was my f...

Sorry to shout, but hold on to your Reindeers, that silly season is here ! I've hardly been lazy the last few months but suddenly the red light is on and I've still got so much new Jewellery to share, so I've been madly uploading and this will continue. Keep you eyes on the Latest Jewellery Uploads page, there's a lot of awesome and unique gems to come ! Of note, those beautiful Champagne Argyle Diamonds in 14 Kt Gold. I've never been a fan of Diamonds ~ there's too much hype about them ~ but these ones have Soul ~ and thanks to Paul's astute buying the prices are very reasonable. There's a...

Hi Everyone Wow it's the 25th of November ~ it'll be Christmas before we know it and I've still got a massive amount of Jewellery to upload ! Trouble is everything happened late this year. This week has been a fantastically busy week buying the last of our pre Christmas stock.  On Tuesday 6 hours buying crystals so we're really well stocked now ~ especially with shapely Amethyst Clusters that have cut bases so they stand up. Starting from $29.95 these are great pressies. As natural works of Art they look good anywhere, and energetically Amethyst is Purifying, balancing and calming. Amethyst...

Hi Everyone and hope you're all well ~ if not, making the best of it ! You know, I had a little laugh to myself as they were wheeling me out of Bangkok Hospital after the cortisone shot in my knee because hey, that's something you associate with professional sports people who push themselves to the extremes ! You'd think running a nice New Age Crystal and Jewellery Store would be the opposite, but it's not. At least, not at the Heart !!! The shop is physically big, and sometimes we just get slammed for a 3 or 4 hour stretch so you're running around and twisting, bending and stretching and t...

This Blog really is more like the confessions of a gemstone addict, 'cos I just can't stop buying :-) You may remember I got an unexpected early shipment from Paul back in July, telling myself that I'd spend less at the overseas gem show, but I spent double my budget there ..... oh well, I thought, I don't need to spend so much with Paul on his annual November run ........... but yes, I just spent another massive amount. I just can't say no to beautiful Gems, and Paul is a special case ! Why ? First because he's a fellow addict of beautiful stones. Secondly because he goes the extra furlong...

Well that's my clever title because I have to apologise for sending out an email with the wrong Title ! It should have been " Tantalising Taurus " because it was full of great info about the Taurus Full Moon just passing and how it was complicated by Venus Retrograde. I guess we all got a bit tired coping with that so mistakes are made. "The latest competition" was the title of the template we used ~ and we were so engrossed in the content we didn't even see it. Ouch. Sorry.  Though when I think about it, handling those celestial challenges was the latest competition for us here at the Hear...
