Charmed, I’m Sure

I can’t get enough of Charmco, it’s sucking the hours out of my day. Bien sur, my always-in-the-know sisters and their besties all have antique charm bracelets fully-loaded with sentiment, while pauvre moi can only stand idly by and ogle as gold prices skyrocket.

How sweet on a simple chain necklace or delicate wisp of a bracelet as a ‘maid gift or wedding day surcee?

So I like anything with an understated HINT of gold in it, on it, around it. Fool’s gold, gold-dipped glassware, edible gold glitter on a cupcake, and on and on…

Given this fact, it’s no surprise that I’m drawn to a type of gemstone called reticulated quartz.

I like to call it confetti quartz. Check out the photo below and you’ll understand why.

And, ta da! Behold how this gorgeous gift from Mother Nature translates into the ultimate bridesmaid baubles:

I Need

Anything with a bow on it. Put a bow on it. Sounds like a children’s hair cuttery- “Bangles and Bows”, but seriously . . . a bangle with the perfect Audrey Hepburnish bow on it? Sign me up- thanks, Kate.
