Ok, two posts in one! I see a lot of people talking about logging in from a phone. This tutorial applies to ANY website. In the web development world, they have to design sites for computers, tablets AND phones. Often pages will not show correctly if they try a one and done code. Coding is almost al...

I remember as a young adult, happening upon JTV and their lilac colored tanzanite. At the time that's the only color I knew, and saw, and sure enough the only color sold by jewelers I ran across. It was still very pretty. From what I've read, there is SO MUCH ROUGH gem quality material right now tha...

Bless you Gypsy for all you do for your feline community, you are truly a blessing. A SHOUT out to all of you, Blossom, Rolltide ,William, Hot4tener, Honey and BostonIrish nice to see you all posting! Thank you Bella 😻 I love all animals, but do have a special place in my heart for all the little s...

Hellooooo William I hope you and the people that you gifted, and anyone else here at the forum that recognize having like charger, are never harmed. Thanks for the warning Gypsy.

Rolltide I'm not sure what the deal is unless they are not coating them in rhodium or platinum. But for "high end sterling" it's a bit shocking.

The other day I hosted a fun "dress-up event" for a few teen daughters of my friends (they needed dresses for the school dance and could not afford one - my teen daughters left all theirs b...

With gold over, it depends on what TYPE of gold over. vermeil is the better option, as it lays down a thicker coat of gold (18k) and holds up best over time. regular gold plating will rub off quickly. I had a 14K gold over ring from SLC. The gold lasted exactly 1 day, and then I had a silver ring. B...

This just seems all the more distracting when you are trying to figure out if it's something you want to buy or not. Especially when items have a limited presentation time.

So I was just quoted prices on silver casting. $2.30 per penny weight (the unit they use), and the ring I had them cast is 3.35pw, so in material it's $12.70. This was for a basic prong setting. The designer settings I'm having cast I don't yet have a weight for, but it's going to be quite solid and...
