Woo-Hoo - the ''Hardware'' Party in Providence, RI!

[Dee*Jay]

Great pics of great bling!!! And LOL on the lemon cheesecake!

 

[hlmr]

Yummy, yum, yum!

Great pix and love the stacked rings pic! (on the finger laying down)

I wanna know more about the gorgeous green too?! Love that colour.

Widget, you''re the eagle eye! LOL

The peridot is mine - I''m an August baby. I wasn''t a fan of peridot when I was younger, but as I found nice examples of it, it''s really grown on me. Here are more shots of it......

I owned the ring first, and then I found these earrings which went perfectly with it.

But you're right, Widge......I am definitely a diamond gal first and foremost.....

LOVE how crisp the faceted girdle is on this shot.

These are photos I got in the sun yesterday afternoon when I got home from Providence. Being with my newfound fellow diamond psychos inspired me! LOL

[marvel]

WOW!!! Thanks for all the bling shots

It's like getting a fix

Alj, I'm an August baby too...those peridot earings are just FAB

I think I need a peridot stone in a halo setting now

Alj did an awesome job at summing up the day! We did have SOOO much fun. I can''t wait to do it again!!

I highly recommend to all PS''ers to do a local GTG! There is nothing like meeting people who have the crazy obsessions as yourself!

Shay and Alj are wonderful people! They both are so kind and sweet and a wealth of knowledge to a cut rock like myself. Time just flew right by talking about all sorts of things. It was truly an amazing day!

Alj is a great with the camera. Thank you so much for all the beautiful pics of my treasures! It was so much fun to share and see other georgeous jewelry.

[Ellen]

LOL! Looks like you guys had a great time! It all looks fabulous and I admit I''m a bit jealous!! Be so much fun to have a GTG here

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

Awww, I live in the Providence area too. I wish I had known you gals were getting together. Glad you had fun though!

 

[Shay37]

Hiker, and HH that would be cool.

Meanwhile, I have to sneak in a comment before DH commandeers the comp again. His days off, I just get a sniff of it.

Tomorrow I will be able to post at length

What a fun thread to read! Thanks for sharing and I love all of it (especially the peridot! I know...diamond sacrilege!)

Canuk-gal, Kimberly, Crown, FG, Tacori, Kaleigh, Mrs. S., Kcourselle, Irish, hlmr, Madam B, Ellen, starry: So glad you all enjoyed the pics!

Skippy: You were so quick to the draw that you beat me to mentioning which belonged to whom!

Just Julia: We DID have way too much fun – and I can’t wait to do it again!

Sumbride: Same here – had NO idea how much detail was in the B. pendant. Swoonable! I want one of them now, too!

Hiker and HH: The more the merrier! Hope you can make it next time.

Beacon….I loved the bracelet too! Ktn is a Baaaaaaaad influence! LOL

Dee: Yeah, all I could think of was “gee, this cheesecake has GOT to be more lethal than the 9 PB cups!”

Rising sun and Cehra: Hee ….good jealousy is a good thing. Seriously, if you ever have opportunity, I highly recommend a GTG like this. Truly amazing to sit with folks who “get it” like we do!

Marvel: woo-hoo for the August babies! The peridot earrings are my favorite wardrobe item besides my diamonds.

TG: I love the peridot, too. Didn’t really appreciate them much when I was younger, but with age and better quality peridots, they’ve really grown on me.

Thanks for the peridot pics, Alj! They''re BEAUTIFUL!!

I was the same...didn''t appreciate peridot when I was younger, probably because I never saw the good stuff. Those earrings are TDF...
