So for my show and tell today I'm showing a pendant I bought for myself earlier this week. I had seen this about a month ago in a little store I had went to that has many fantastic things and I loved it. I didn't buy it because I don't wear
necklaces often but I then went home and spent the next month thinking about it and wanting it. So I finally went back and got it. I think instead of putting it on a chain (I usually dislike necklaces since the chain pulls at my hair on my neck) I am going to put this on a black velvet or silk ribbon at least at first to see if that works, I may have to adjust later. Anyways the stone is a ruby which is one of my favorite stones although I've never seen one like this before.
Also I wanted some earrings to go with it and the pair on the right match even though you can't tell very well from this picture. These were actually pendants also but the guy at the shop converted them into earrings for me that matched my necklace. The others were just pretty and so I got them too.

Those are beautiful! That pendant will look so pretty on a black velvet ribbon.
It's a good thing when you do something really nice for yourself. And the jewelry is beautiful.
Wonderful idea using silk or velvet. Please post a picture when you do...
They are beautiful.
I know what you mean about mulling over it afterwards, and then finally having to go back for it. I've had jewelry pull me in like that before too.
Very pretty - I really like the earrings too!
Stringing it on a ribbon should help. Mostly it is the clasp that snags and catches though. Instead of a traditional closure you might try a toggle or barrel style?
Such a beautiful deep red. Enjoy wearing them!
That is a gorgeous pendant. It would look great on a velvet choker.
They're gorgeous! The pendant would look great with anything.
Wow the ruby is gorgeous!! It's my favorite stone too...take pictures of you wearing it!!! :)
Gorgeous! A black velvet choker would be perfect!

Those are really pretty - and I just love rubies, they're my July birthstone. Hope you're having a great weekend!
Beautiful! Good for you for going back to get them.
Very beautiful! Glad you got them!
That's a simply stunning stone and would look fantastic on a black velvet ribbon. Pity I live so far away or I'd be asking for the store names so I could pay it a visit.
Taking care of our selves is soooo key! Congrats for acting on it!
You have terrific taste.
These are beautiful stones, and now I'm wondering what their energetic qualities are.
Off to look it up...
