I totally get that! There are lots of stones I see out there that intrigue me that I don't really have an interest in acquiring. I get paid on Wednesday so I've been mulling over some other stones to purchase.... the balance between trying to save up money and also get stones I like before someone else does is such a tricky one!
When I was looking for some more gems to share with you last night my boyfriend just looked over and said "more stones, huh?"

he seems supportive of my new interest so far but we'll see how that fares with time!
Seriously don't worry about it! It's not like you could have read my mind, after all! I think I might ask for a pic or video of it on a hand just to see how it looks there as opposed to the plain bright background. The fact that it's 30% off is also hard to ignore... the fact that it was like $250 before was a big deterrent but having it under $200 now has me reconsidering! My economics degree
knows that is just a fun mental trick - most people are more likely to get something that is priced as $199 vs. $200. Yes even that one cent can make a difference! (it's why lots of stuff is usually priced at $xx.99 vs $xx.00) But despite knowing that, I am tempted... I'll definitely let you all know if I end up going for it!
Oh my goodness, what I pretty sapphire... I love seeing that rutile silk! If that stone makes you happy to look at, then I definitely think you should reset it! Think of how much more you will love it once it's out of that ugly setting!
Woohoo!! That was one knockout spinel... can't WAIT to see it once you have it in your hands!!
