Your ring, bracelet and earrings are such beautiful pieces and the stories behind them are lovelier again.
Fantastic news about the continued NED diagnosis and I hope that continues. Wear it all in health and happiness.

Thanks so much, @Tigerlilyrosepetal :))

That made me laugh! Thanks, @hathalove!

Thank you, @tyty333. Truth be told, not good health as such - my Crohn's is crashing and it's giving me issues with my heart. but it SO GOOD that I get to deal with those things - without having to also carry issues from previous problems. There's a limit, y'know?

Hi there, @canuk-gal. I knew you'd love the enamel bracelet - it didn't occur to me that you'd like the pearls! I'm glad you do, tho - they're something a little special. :))

Thanks so much, @rcjtraveler! I aspire to bigger and better when I reach the point where I decide to get serious about the world of blue pearls. But my hands are full right now, so these are an excellent compromise and very, very wearable.

Thank you for those lovely words, @derbygal. :wavey:

@Mlh - "little treasures" - this, exactly. Thank you. <3

Hey there, @Polabowla! Yes, we felt mightily screwed over when we realized what had happened to our ring! We were very young at the time (fiance then was 19!) - and we just didn't know to check. Pretty sure the jeweler was counting on that. Very happy with where I am now, tho, when it comes to jewelry and MORE than happy to be where I am with my cancer diagnosis! Hugs to you! I know you have battles of your own in the land of AI, and I think of you often. ox

Hi @GeorgieQ :wavey: I wish I could capture the serene blue of the earrings - but it's just beyond my photographic skills. The more light I add, being as reflective as they are, the more they just look white. Suffice to say, tho - I love them!

Thank you so much, @Dancing Fire :)) I appreciate the kind words.

@Mreader - yes, I think each appt gets harder, because you feel as tho you only get so many free passes and that, as time goes on, you get closer and closer to the time it will recur...if it's going to. Which it may not. But it may. And you don't know which one it will be. Horrible, horrible process. But for now - we celebrate!

@bright&shiny - thank you! I love the idea of life being a tapestry. I'm trying hard to make mine as beautiful as I can. <3

Thank you, @caf! Yes, DKJ did a terrific job on all the pieces. The earrings are, in my opinion, granted, eye-catching. Very wearable - but a cut above the common. I love them!

Hi @Slick1 :wavey: I swear, I'm trying my level best! I'm glad you like my baubles - I think the remakes were totally worth it!

Aaaahhhhh - @HollyC - "new memories"! What wonderful promise there is in those words! Thank you so much!

Thank you for that, @Kim N. :)) I do hope to reach a place, tho, where I can get a beautiful piece of jewelry...just because I feel like it! Sometimes I wish my pieces were tad less...significant!

Thank you, @kathley :wavey:

@CRYSTAL24K!! I've missed you! Welcome back! I have to say, I think a lot of people who might not normally like pearls could still love blue pearls. If you like color, they appeal to the eye in a different way to normal, white pearls. They're like a pale blue gemstone - delicious! And thank you for your kind wishes. Now stick around, please!! :bigsmile:

Thank you so much, @Diamond Girl 21! Will do!

Hi @diamondseeker2006 :wavey: This time of year is always jewelry project time for me, as March is bonus time! So I always have a little run of it. Still have a couple to go - which is awesome - then a much slower pace for the rest of the year. Phew!

Thank you, @JPie. :bigsmile: In all truthfulness, despite some difficult experiences over recent years, I consider myself hugely lucky and beyond blessed! There are millions of people in this country alone who would give up all the jewelry they've ever owned to hear those three glorious letters - and who never do. Every time I get a good result, I think of them and wish them my good fortune.

Thank you, @MamaBee. Yes - having one's deceased mother's engagement diamond stolen is the epitome of what scares so many of us re jewelry projects. It's interesting that people are generally nervous about working with online jewelers, but I've never once had a dishonesty issue with ANY jeweler I have worked with online. On the other hand, I've had 3 significant issues with brick and mortar store jewelers. Just an interesting thought.... And thank you for your very kind words about my projects - I've been following yours with interest! ox

Thank you so much, @Daisys and Diamonds - yes, the e-ring situation was a tough pill to swallow, but I have to say - it's hard not to love where I ended up when it comes to e-rings!! :mrgreen: Thank you for your kind words - I do love my new pieces!

@Alex T - bless you, my friend, for your kind words. :)) Nothing else to say - just - thanks. ox

I love what DK did with your ring. I love the ring with the exceptional pearl and I think the bracelet and ring look lovely together. i think the jeweler was a scumbag. The pearl and diamond earrings are absolutely beyond gorgeous........and you know what I think of your WSS pearl earrings! But.....

N.E.D. Is by far the very best news you could have heard. I understand that you are having a hard time with other health issues, ( and I am not minimizing these by any means), but, having a resolution to the big C is such a relief and allows you to concentrate on these other issues.

Bravo!

Thank you, @Bron357. <3 Not many people on this planet know more about blinging on than you! Your collection never fails to amaze me! Gorgeous! Thank you for your good wishes -and, yes: onwards and upwards!!

Thanks so much, @foxinsox! I agree - jewelry is nice. Reasons for jewelry - way nicer! Thanks for your kind words. :))

I shall indeed go on with my bad self, @ItsMainelyYou! I'm not entirely sure what that means, but I'm pretty sure it's something I should be doing!! By the way, I should have my rubellite ring in about 2 weeks. I was so inspired by yours, and even tho I decided to go a different way in the end (after a LOOOOOOT of thinking!) - I'll still link you to the thread when the time comes, as you were pivotal in the upcoming piece. Thanks so much!!

I was so pleased to hear that you are cancer free but sorry to hear that you are still suffering from ill health. I hope things make a turn for the better soon.
