Well it's a cold wet windy winter evening here in Melbourne. I just can sense all those creative writers huddling round the heaters, pens or laptops in hand, striving to sublimate the atmospherics into their words. Well I've got an overdue Blog to write, that'll do me :-)
So Hi ! How are you ? I sincerely hope you are all doing well because it seems to have been a stressful energy last month ! All of us at the Heart have been tested with various stresses. Thankfully we've survived. So condolences and congratulations to you all for surviving and hopefully prospering.
Had a visit from Marco D...
Hi Everyone and hope you all had a good week. It's been pretty intense here at the Heart with everything happening at once ~ I don't know what's been happening in the Stars but the whole World seems to have been going a little more crazy than usual. All I can say is I'm glad it's all over and we've survived !
Can't help wondering whether that extra hit of Tanzanite had something to do with all this because I certainly feel more evolved ! Hey, I even managed the first mail out since Christmas !
Anyway, between all the dramas I've certainly been on a creative high. Product descriptions have i...
Hi Everyone and hope you're all keeping well. It's another Saturday night ! The shop has just closed but I'm not ready to leave the party yet :-)
Tonight Tanzanite is on my mind. Here's a pic of the largest crystal ever found ~ 3.37 Kgs ! It's called the Mawenzie, and apologies to whoever owns it for not asking permission.
Tanzanite has become one of my favourite stones. I'm sure it's no coincidence that this stone arrived in my life as I was wanting to perfect my business and website. See my write up here, heading the Tanzanite Collection.
Loving this stone and unable to find any read...
Today I learned a new expression. To swallow the frog ! By which I mean an alive, slimy, probably kicking member of the Animal Kingdom. Not something you really want to do. But last night and today I swallowed the frog that is the AMETHYST COLLECTION
Over the years I've tried different approaches and finally decided that each piece should be defined first by stone then by style ( Pendant, Earring etc ) then by form ~ cab or cut.
That meant a lot of work because the Amethyst collection had become a melange of any different systems ~ but it's now all organised. I've been avoiding this particu...
Hi Everyone
Well as you can see from Latest Jewellery Uploads I've been working hard since the last blog. Mind you, we're really only just over half way. Trouble is I love the stones so much that I have to give them the full attention with photography and description that they deserve.
Jess was kind enough to pick up on this with some of my Moonstone uploads and devote a Facebook post to the poetry of my descriptions. Wow. Thanks Jess ! Really I feel I'm just describing what I see in the Stones but hey, I did devote a fair part of my earlier life to writing poetry, so it's nice that some...
Well it's been another crazy week. For some reason none of us have slept well. It's not only the weather that's changing. Change always brings up attachments that try to stop us moving on. Case in point ~ although it's terribly convenient for me to live over the Shop, I've long wanted to move out so I can have an actual life. A big obstacle has been my attachment to all the stuff I've accumulated living here. Last night I had a massive insight. Just leave it all ! ( OK not the crystals ! ) That's what I did when I left UK to arrive here in Australia with just one hold-all.
So now I feel the...
