@stracci2000, thanks honey, I do love a good sapphire eternity. Now I have to work on selling the baguette one.

How is work going?

I love those colorful eternity bands. I have a skinny channel set sapphire that just doesn't have very much presence. I need to get a better one. The stones are nice and sparkly, but the ring is just too dainty.
Work is OK, wearing mask and gloves. Many people are not wearing either in the stores. It's making me really mad, and shows that they just don't care.

I love how blue the sapphires are in your band, so often they look black!

They really should be wearing masks and gloves, come on we all know what we are supposed to be doing,

My neighbor made the husband a mask and of course I said I wanted one too. Well I had no idea what the mask would look like so.....

LOVE the ring box!! That is so beautiful.

@StephanieLynn does your neighbor have a 3D printer?

Depending on where you live masks may be hard to get. we now have a mandate but fabric stores are closed. We’ve tried to order online but they get confiscated by the government during shipping (not N95’s or even ones rated for medical use). I’m fortunate to be able to sew but I literally ran out of thread! I am using donated materials and I’m not selling the masks but short of cutting up a T-shirt to wrap around your face, if you don’t know someone who can sew one it is very difficult to get a mask here. we have family in another state was able to order the same ones online so maybe our state is not allowing them to be shipped here. I know some are available on etsy but a lot of older people wouldn’t know where to start with getting one. My husband’s manufacturing plant with access to supply chain resources can’t get masks! I am making masks for his department this weekend because they need them by Monday...cutting up a new duvet cover for fabric. It’s very crazy!!
And yes sadly, some people just won’t wear one anyway.

@1ofakind, he does have a 3D printer, two or three huge ones I think. This mask probably took the better part of 2 days just to print and then he spray painted them.

Is your husband's mask blue so he could be your subzero?

And do you tell him "get over here!"

You are in the know! Yes he is subzero and I am scorpion apparently which is appropriate because I do say that to him frequently lol!

Sorry I just saw your post! I will ask, he has a shop on Etsy but I don't know if he is doing the masks, last time my husband suggested he sell them he said he wasn't going to be getting into masks, maybe he has changed his mind.

@Nikki1415, he is selling them
For $50 shipped but you would have to paint it. Here is the link to his Etsy shop, if you're interested I would send him a message there:

Here's an eBay find, $42.00
An antique ladies watch, for my small collection.
The bow pin is .900 silver and the watch is .800 silver. There's a little enamel loss on the bow and a bit missing from the case, but I don't mind. Maybe I'll restore it with blue nail polish. It runs a while, then stops. If I tap it, it runs again.
Inside it says 'Fauvette'

'
hey @Bron357 ,I don't think you saw my 'new-old' watch!
I fixed the bow with blue nail polish.

Hey folks, Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there!

Some of you may have seen that I recently bought a Lightbox pink diamond that I decided to reset because it was too close to my skin tone and I figured some diamonds would help that effect.

Well in looking for the perfect vintage setting I came across this wedding set, the diamonds are not huge but I just love the look AND it has the matching band AND it's already my size. I made a 15% off (it was already on sale) and it was accepted!!!

So that is my Mother's Day gift and the pink diamond necklace will be my SIL's Christmas gift since I know she loves rose gold and it will look amazing on her skin tone.

Anyone else find something for themselves or have some little EBay trinkets to share?
