Ugh, so much that I need to have done, between repairs, re-sizing, and re-setting.
- Resize CvB set. I was lucky to acquire a gorgeous pre-loved Spring Gulch with a matching Afterglow band, but alas, they are just too small. Resizing the Spring Gulch will be easy, as the shank is plain, but the Afterglow has Caysie's signature foliate engraving, which I fear will not be adjustable, so I may end up having to sell it.

- Repair
1)
WF diamond flower pendant. One of the melee came loose in my ultrasonic, so I would like to get that repaired.
WF wanted an arm and a leg to reset one tiny stone, so I'll have to have it done elsewhere.

2) I accidentally ripped a diamond out of one of my favorite bands while pulling a cookie sheet out of the storage drawer on my oven. The prongs don't look too mangled, so hopefully that will be an easy repair.
- Reset
1) Reset solitaire diamond into a pendant. I've been hemming and hawing about this, but I think I'm finally ready to commit. I just need to figure out how I want it set, basket or bezel. And then I will sell the old setting.
2) Reset diamonds from an old band. 1 diamond is cracked, and 1 has come loose from the setting, so it's time to scrap that band entirely. The stones are about 2.8mm, and I'm hoping to do something that sits a bit lower.
