It has been storming most of the weekend & then another shower today & all I can think is that the weather does something to my head because for the life of me I couldn't seem to do anything right today! @ our class I finished these Black Alaskin Diamond Earrings. I'm sorry it is not a good picture it is the best I could do. The silver & red tiny beads are Swavarski crystals & the teardrop is Actually Black Alaskin Diamonds. The picture does not do them justice they are very beautiful really. I could not get the tiny circle to lock into place so I had to redo it 4 times. While others were faster & made a bracelet to match. But I am very happy with the finished earrings. Just one of those days I guess. Also sterling Sliver hooks

Wow! Loralye, you never cease to amaze me with all the things you do at your Brain Injury classes. These look fabulous, I've never heard of Black Alaskan Diamonds, but they sure do sparkle! Love Chris

You may know it as hematite
they were very popular back in the 60's & are making a comeback now & they are quite a beautiful & shiny smooth stone. Next we do cards & then we do more etching on a picture frame so always learning something new.
they have something 3 times a week but I often can only go once or twice depends on how well I feel, but I do try to go to the jewellery making as it is something totally new for me & so pretty too
Aha! Yes, I know Hematite! Thanks Bev.
They are beautiful Loralye, I am so impressed with your progresss and all that you do. Love Chris

They are beautiful. I hope you wear them often and show them off with pride. I like to blame a lot of my pain on barometric pressure. So you may be right that the stormy days affected you. But you persevered and that is what is important.
