my happiest place on earth

that's right, the Gem & Jewelry show came around again this weekend...and you'd all be proud of me...I didn't load up on tons of gemstones (of which I am way overstocked...) I just went in for chain and necklaces, and I picked up a few new and interesting pieces...like...

these awesome jade beads- they look like jelly beans!















cute little flower pendants















more gold and silver dipped leaves















and of course, loads and loads of chain :) from a vendor who is located in Old Bridge, NJ!















now time to be productive...spring craft show applications are being completed as we speak!

gem & jewelry show loot

as always, it was a good one...

I finally got around to organizing my finds, with Jack's help of course :)

I had no idea though, just how amazing it is to be back in the wholesale section...it's a whole new world for me...and I am so glad to finally be on the right track!





























just look at these GIANT labradorites!! how fab are they??

a little bit obsessed...

okay, I'll admit it, I love stocking up on supplies...and my good friends on etsy have helped support that habit ;)

I wanted to give a shout out to some of my favorite shops...
