A few things.

First, my husband is really smart.

Second, about a week ago I sold this ring to a very nice woman in the UK:

The cool thing about this particular sale was that she was recently engaged, but she and her fiance had some big expenses coming up and he couldn’t afford to get an engagement ring at the moment.  They both agreed she should have something in the interim however, and she chose my ring as her temporary engagement ring.  That makes me happy.

Third, I now have a page on Facebook specifically for my jewelry.  If you’re a member of Facebook and you like my jewelry, I’d sure like it if you became a fan by clicking the “Become a Fan” link on the page.

Finally, I was recently tagged by Candace, a very talented jewelry designer who sells on Etsy and also blogs.  She has some lovely pieces, so please check her out!
