"Petal" ring - sterling, pink chalcedony Listing HERE
I got a bunch of 10 mm round rose cut stones in pink, blue and aqua chalcedony and labradorite. Now trying to think up new designs to use them. I never used "rose cut" stones before - rose cut means a cabochon shape (flat on the bottom and rounded on top) but it has facets all over the top.
Today was Gabe's birthday - 16 years old! He choose a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. It tasted like death by chocolate. Even the kids couldn't finish eating their pieces. I figure the thing to do would be scrape off the icing and cover the cake with milk and it might then be toned down enough for me to eat a piece.
