Finding Your Passion 24hrMom talks with Christine Haynes of Fezelry Jewlery designs

I was invited to be a guest on The 24hrmom Online Radio Show with host Luva Alverez, on the show we discussed finding your passion.  For several years, I have been cultivating my passion into a business while also balancing being a wife and mother working several "day jobs" and at one time being a full time student.  During the interview I share how my passion found me, and how a sponsorship from a very dear friend jump started it all.  I share my story, of how I started selling my handmade jewelry creations out of a messenger bag and how small steps took my jewelry from the messenger bag to magazines, and celebrities. I offer real advice for others looking to take that step and start a business. Special thank you to 24hr Mom and show host Luva Alverez for having me on the show it was a pleasure!

Gemstone Inclusions= Beauty&Value:

Did you know? Gemstone Inclusions= Beauty&Value: 

Although some may think inclusions are imperfections that detract from a gems beauty some gems are more beautiful and valuable because of the inclusions they contain. Two examples are Amber and Demantoid Garnet, natural amber will almost always have some type of inclusion trapped within, every now and then you may even find a bug trapped inside! Another beautiful example is a Demantoid Garnet, Demantoid’s contain what are referred to as horsetail inclusions these look like radiating needles within the stone this is a telltale signature of this rare stone.

             Amber                         Demantoid Garnet

 Next time you look at a gemstone appreciate the beauty the inclusions and imperfections can bring give them some love <3.

Did you Know?

Did you know? I am sure you know that gemstones come in every color you can possibly imagine, but did you know that one gem variety can have many different hues? Hue, is another term for color variery. An example of a gem with a variety of different hues is the Sapphire, most people think of sapphire they think blue however, there is also pink sapphire, yellow sapphire, white, even orange! We refer to these as "fancy."
