Oh My, Tourmaline

All of these are tourmaline.

Here we see a lot of watermelon tourmaline.

Can you tell I'm a bit obsessed?

Some of these strands are 100s of dollars.

Some of these things I never knew even were tourmaline.

The pieces w/multiple colors being the most expensive and desirable.

But there's such a variety of color.

And those black ones are in a couple of Sparrow's pieces.

I'm mad over the heishi below. (Those strands are like $70.)

But I truly love these earthy rustic little buttons, though they're some of the least expensive tourmaline available on etsy. 
(Sorry for yelling, I couldn't see the sentences between all that tourmaline tumult.) I purchased a strand which I used here:

And though I'm drowning in supplies, I keep wanting to get more of this stuff!
Oh- I changed everything in the shop over to Priority Shipping. Decided not to do confirmation b/c it's a pain if you're at work.  I've been making packs and it's so easy and nice- I don't have to worry about padding b/c the boxes are sturdy, and I can drop them in the mailbox across the street! That's the best.  No more procrastinating going to the post office! No more post office lines on my rushed way to work!   I had to purchase and install a new printer, though, and getting the computer to realize it was there had me so very, very close to tears.  And that can only mean one thing: PMS. (DUM-DUM-DUUUUM!)
