Through the kitchen window all I see is a cotton candy cloud of pink jasmine. I've been waiting for this all winter long, such a joyful smell, a balloon for your heart...

The ring is somewhere around a size 10, need to get a better exact measurement, but my hands are weary - soon enough :)

RESERVED AS WELL!!!
For the wee of finger, I have crafted a chrysoprase copper blossom with sterling water droplets:
it looks so Irish!!
I think it came about from all of the Irish Breakfast Tea I'm drinking in the morning and the fact that I miss Liane, Seamus and Jimmy so much:
everyone needs a little brogue in their life!
This ring is right around a size 5.75.

Both have a heavy patina and gorgeous satin shine - There is so much heart in them, mine and the earth's.
