PICTURES!!!!  

Friday, January 9, 2009

First off I must apologize to those of you in Europe. This post was meant to be up much earlier, but alas, I had approximately 600 pics on my camera and my computer didn't take too kindly to uploading them.

Anyway, here are various pics of items I acquired on my recent vacation in Costa Rica. The first picture is a Chess board that uses Mayan characters on the left and Spanish Conquestadors on the right. The second picture is of a coral necklace and a jade necklace I acquired in Manuel Antonio, a beautiful town with an incredible National Park and astoundingly beautiful beach. The third is a picture of a ring made from a Tagua nut. It is some kind of palm nut. Very creative isn't it? But the creativity goes up a notch with the next two items. The fourth picture is a necklace/earring set made of beans (yes, edible beans painted red) and the tagua nut in the center. The minute I saw this, I thought of my mother. Not so sure what she will think about wearing beans around her neck and ears, though. lol! The final picture is another ingenious piece of jewelry. The necklace and matching earrings are made from pumpkin seeds which have been dyed and treated so as to preserve them. I could not walk away from this. I feel that this piece will be an excellent addition to my growing collection of unique jewelry and antique jewelry and gemstones.

Hope you like the pics. I have another pic I wanted to add of the stunt Bomboy pulled at the Miami airport while we waited to fly to Washington D.C. but I think I will save that for another day. Anyway, have a blessed weekend!
