The Last Person to Post in This Thread Wins

I doubt it'll ever happen. They've been getting on my nerves for nearly 30 years and they are still there, lol.

Once crystals are there they are there for life babe true

I used to use them at work but that just stressed me out even more.

Bad vibes from the computer,

Yessssssss. getting it, i keep them far away from any device or electronics, absolutely a must to me. but Black Tourmaline and Hematite can absorb EMF

trying to make sure other people didn't touch them,

Yes exactly -i get that , yeah too true

taking them home every night so they don't get swept aside by the cleaner.

They require some attention i know babe!

It was just easier to keep them at home!

They are alive babe that is how i think of each one

um, mebbe!

Great ! consider it maybe lol she aint convinced hahahahahhaha

They are all nicely wrapped up in silk hankies.

yes

So it's all good. Some of them are in little Chinese silk pouches,

others are in silk scarves.

I did used to think I could at least reduce the number.

haha i ... making me laugh babe , talking about it so causally funny

I've got 6 or 7 blue lace agate, for example. Why not ditch a few?

I would 'miss' some of mine, they go when they go kinda , Blue Lace AGATE - BEAutiful !

But I'd get them out and bond with all of them

YES this

bc, of course, they are all different.

spot on babe.

Back into the tins, lol.

back to their beddie byes ! [ honestly i am BIG on this stuff i shall shut up right here. LOL

I used to think maybe I'd do a nice mandala bc I've got so many repeats of certain gems or certain colours.

Right...

But that never took hold.

right

sorry i got ooh , bit zapped then ! dont call me mystic meg for gawd sake girls haha

Talking about amber reminded me of this place.

 

[zinniabooklover]

As a kid, I was COMPLETELY fascinated by displays of insects petrified in amber!! So awesome!

If I ever do get an amber necklace mine will not have dead insects in it. I get the whole 'fossilised' thing but I'm not having it. No siree!

Also, as a kid, I doubted amber was real valuable because it feels like and is light like a lump of molten plastic. lol

It can feel weirdly plasticky, can't it? I don't think it would ever be one that I would love for its texture. A lot of my crystals - which are mostly cheap tumble stones - are loved by me just for the texture alone. I have a lot of unpolished ones which I prefer.

 

[wendijane]

No offence but I never bought that crap. The fkr just fkd off, I doubt it's 'gone' to someone who needed it more.


Mm, maybe this is why the fkr fkd off. Don't like pomegranates, don't like January. It's not going well, is it?

I do love my red jaspers. I've got a few.

I think I've got something from all the colour categories.

Same!

good grief! That was intense!

Really interesting, though!

 

[wendijane]

What's so special about liking it Really didn't get it)))))

I think she's just getting over-excited, tbh.

that will be it ! you know me well zin !

 

[wendijane]

yes, I have a box of pink sequins!

Ah! Thanx for confirming !

I had a dream (probably as a result of spending all night stitching those sequins!)

ah ...haha i get it

that I have Michael's glove and it is supposed to have stones or gems or something but mine had sequins!

I love that . ha ! @Hiker you were ok the other night ? ...

 

[wendijane]

The colors and shapes attract me the most. Mine are mostly cheap and "self found". Some really do remember me of my childhood or the places where I found them.

Some of the best memories are when we found some feldspar (Feldspat) or even pyrite glimmer hidden in a plain looking stone.

Yes, most of my gems I bought for the shape and / or colour. I've got some chunky ones but nothing ginormous.

Mine are mostly cheap and "self found".

I've always lived in cities so 'self-found' = found 'em in the woo woo shop.

I never did any of that 'oh, let your hand hover over them and wait until you feel the bond'. oh fgs, just pick one and buy it!

Some really do remember me of my childhood or the places where I found them.

That's so nice. All of mine come from shops or museums but I do love them even though they annoy me intensely, lol. Funnily enough I can remember which shop I bought each one from even where I have several the same.

Some of the best memories are when we found some feldspar (Feldspat)

Ah, feldspar, that's another one I don't have.

or even pyrite glimmer hidden in a plain looking stone.

I have some pyrite which I adore. Pyrite is so cool.

A German word for it is "Katzengold" = cats gold

See, I've got enough to be able to do this sort of thing but I just can't be arsed. I never know where to put them and am I supposed to dust them and am I supposed to pay attention to them or are they going to sulk? I don't like ornaments and I don't like 'things'. I like to bond with my gems just by handling them every now and then and then putting them away. I don't seem to want them on display. But this is really beautiful. I like photos of mandalas but I don't want to do them. I'm not very artistic, really. It's probably that.

Lapis Lazuli is probably my favourite gem stone! Love them polished and unpolished

 

[wendijane]

I used to love rose quartz. since 2015I tend to use alot of tourmaline , jasper, moonstone , amth , agate ,
Recently I the 'blue' stones speak to me.

I think I've only got one piece of lapis. I need to go and check, lol. Beautiful colour. Mine is smooth rather than polished.

I need to do the same. I know I have a little geode but can't remember what type.

 

[zinniabooklover]

I may be some time. Here's a Courtney Love quote, nothing to do with crystals, I just like it.

"I'm a shite guitar player. I have a sound ... I can write a song, I just can't execute it so well."
