Bored senseless... let's chat about upcoming projects.

@Daisys and Diamonds i do love the combination with the rose quartz beads. The pink provides a nice perky contrast to the jet.
I think you can call it your Blackpink necklace!
(I know you are a Bruce Springsteen fan)

The green beads look interesting too. I get what you mean re: winter - having some colourful things certainly lifts my mood. We wouldn’t mind some of the cold. Singapore is very warm these days.

The answer is, with difficulty! That is why Singapore’s late Prime Minister opined that the most important invention for Singapore was air conditioning.
For me, it’s breathable clothing, ventilation, water, tea, and sunscreen.
Malachite has a special place in Chinese culture, it is called the peacock stone. Such a pretty name!

it sounds odd not to have winter
i could give you a few days of it then you could give it back

I got this star sapphire- it's still a victorian pin - and thinking of making it a ring.

Found a very cool rare stone called grandiderite and promptly ordered a 4.43 carat untreated pear. Not sure in the slightest how to set it. It’s a 7-7.5 on the MOHs scale so it’s good enough for jewelry.
