What Is a Gemstone

What is a gemstone? It’s a chapter of Mother Earth’s autobiography. She bakes her creations deep within her womb; by the time they leave the nest, they are her beautiful memories. Some gems are painters; presenting life’s scenes; they paint themselves scenic; these imitators will become precious art works. Some reflect the colors of light’s spectrum; refracting light plays out in captivating scenes. Others merely glow with colors of life; they love to be displayed upon a stage of skin; complemented by like fashions. Wear them as proudly as they wear you.

Intriguing, and quite educational for a non-fashionista like myself. ~ gw

To be honest, I'm also a non-fashionista but, I like to wear a little something when I go out, so when I was around 12, my Aunt taught me how to make beaded jewelry and I've enjoyed making gifts and some I've sold, ever since. Thanks again.

Mine isn't expensive either, but I do make semi-precious gemstone jewelry for the fun of it. Thanks for dropping by again and congrats on that contest.

I have often thought the gemstone was wearing me, and I have been told by some that certain gemstones show off their owner, which I do believe. Thank you for the reminder.
