Switching It Up A Bit

I'm trying a new thing...

I've purchased some gold filled wire and findings

and also some gold plated over sterling silver chain 

It has a gold layer that is 1 micron thick which

apparently is 40 times thicker than most gold plated jewelry

I will be adding some gold pieces

to my Etsy shop 

to give extra options for my customers

Butterfly Necklace With Crystals and Pearls On A Gold Chain

This is the first piece I have added to my Etsy shop

I am planning to make

some gold wire wrapped crystal pendant necklaces

and some gold wire wrapped crystal earrings

in plenty of time

for the upcoming festive season.

Do you have a preference for either gold or sterling silver jewelry or do you wear both?

Which is your favorite?

 I'm writing this post from my perspective 

as a Chemotherapy nurse

I am just wanting to call your attention to

Breast Cancer Awareness 

and also want to encourage you to examine your breasts

on a regular basis and have your mammograms and

other diagnostic tests as prescribed by your

health care provider

Again this year I am including the link to an article from

Canadian Living Magazine

This article provides information about breast health

and instructs on how to do a proper breast self exam

Please familiarize yourselves with your breasts and learn 

to properly examine your breasts. 

You owe it to yourself to take the 

best care of yourself
