Crystal Jewelry Source?
I am looking for a HS graduation gift for my DD. Probably jewelry, which she likes. I just got her a ring for her birthday. She doesn't wear a ton of earrings, so I am thinking "necklace" She is really into crystals. Is there jewelry that uses crystals (probably quartz or rose quartz), that is not "junk?" Ideally i'd like to spend up to $500. I've already looked at Alex and Ani, Saks, NM, Anthro, and Etsy.
I want the crystal shape. I'm mostly finding stuff that is totally fake or, a few pieces like this one, which is too much.
Like this but its fake
This doesn't seem to lay right

Comments (5)Thanks for the info-- I put my images on the front (opposite of yours I think) so the finish would come into contact with stuff. Is the finish on Envirotex hard? The 3d lacquer 'feels' hard to the touch but if you would stick your finger nail in it, it would leave an indentation that is why I'm wondering if it is the product or whatever. If I tried envirotex, could I use it on the front of the bottle cap? The 3d lacquer is premade and comes in a squeezeable bottle. Thanks for your help-- your botle cap tags are pretty cool....See MoreMore Jewelry From Spoons
Comments (5)Wow! I love them all, they are beautiful, I usually have a favorite but hard to do that this time,you did a great job on them. When DH passed away I had a Secret Sister at church & continued giving her things until June of the next year when we had the luncheon & she got to find out who I was. I was the surprised 1 she said she loved all the things I gave her so much that she had to make me a bracelet at her jewelry store. It was in a green velvet box,cultured pearls & gold & I cried.That was so sweet to get a gift made just for me. So I think I'd have to go with 1st 1 as my favorite & I love the silver part of it, very elegant. I've always liked white gold & platinum better than yellow gold so that is what my wedding rings were. Like Mexican silver too as it has such a warm look to it. You should sell them on Itsy or else you have your Christmas gifts ready for the women in your family!!Oh, Zach is such a cutie & what a smile, I want to give him a hug!!Do it for me!!

Comments (57)My paternal grandmothers china was foisted on me. Its sitting in a closet in a spare bedroom,where it will remain, I hate to say it, until my father passes and I can toss it without guilt. I dont hate it,its boring. But I will never use it. I have relinquished any claim to the china,crystal or silver that my parents have and never use anymore. Our family has grown too large to have a sit down dinner with everyone anyway. My sisters want the china and silver and all that, for sentimental purposes. I only want the tacky ceramic bowl with giant blue daisies on it. But to each their own. I will say that in the past 5 years or so I have had maybe a dozen acquaintances who have gotten married. I think only one registry had china. Only one had silver. The rest just had everyday flatware and plates and drinkware and stuff. And in those cases,I dont think it was a money thing,because also on those registries were other very expensive items. More expensive than the China or silver on the other ones. I never wanted china or silver of my own. It never even occurred to me. I only want Christmas dishes and flatware. I have the dishes, (not china) and I am searching for the flatware. Maybe less people are buying such things because they are being handed them down from parents or grandparents. I have some tablecloths and cloth napkins from my maternal grandmother. I will also never use those. My mom brought them to me because they are pink. She knows I will not use them,but thought i would appreciate them, if only for the color. And I do! And not only because my grandma HATED pink and it makes me giggle to think that she bought them because pink was the "feminine" thing to have. She had good taste though, something I will never claim to have. :)...See More

Both look smaller than the rose quartz above and are stunning...a little more $$ and a little more unusual than the rose quartz.

In the meantime,apropos of nothing, and pour MOI, i came across this line and I've totally fallen in love with these paillette pieces from Chanticler. To wear in my dining room I guess.
Isn't this fun?!
