**ORDER GIFT CERTIFICATES HERE**
**If you live in the EU or UK please contact me before ordering. I will have to create a custom order for you in my Etsy shop due to the VAT requirements that the EU and UK have put in place.**
** Sorry due to updates to the "Packaging Act" I am unable to ship to Germany. **
We started the day at the Kino show where I went in search of my Starbucks reusable cup. It was nowhere to be found - ah well! But I did do a bit more shopping with Jennifer at World Bead Mine. I got these little pretties!
And I saw the CUTEST carved gemstone armadillo sitting on Jennifer's table. I asked if I could by it and found out she bought it from another vendor at Kino. So her hubby took me out to booth B-7, PapaChacra Minerals (@ph.ll.psouth on Instagram) so I could buy my own. And I did! Actually I bought 2 along with a larger piece of polished aragonite since I just love the colors in the stone. Here are some critters that were still available for purchase when I left. Aren't they soooo cute?!
I didn't get any pictures of vendors or venues today, so all you get to see are the goodies that I bought. I did a little shopping with Bali Designs and then took a lunch break. I just LOVE the Sunny Daze Cafe so we had lunch there.
After lunch we zoomed over to Holidome/Gem Mall and I started shopping with one of my favorite vendors Taj. They were having a closeout on bead strands so, of course, I had to help clear them out.
Then I had to do some shopping for my friend Annette, who lives in Australia. She likes the gem pairs from Best In Gem so we do a Facebook share as I shop for her. I'll leave it to her to share what she got with her customers. I got these pretties for my customers. Gorgeous charoite and blue pietersite.
My next stop was the Intrinsic booth in Holidome, where I did some shopping, then back to the Intrinsic booth in Gem Mall, where I did more shopping. In the end I came out with all these beauties.
I got some beautiful pairs in so many gemstones, fabulous and faceted fluorite cubes, soothing blue chalcedony and so much more!
Our last stop was with a vendor from India who had more beautiful gemstones. Here is the selection I got from him - blue opal, dendritic opal, moss opal, moss agate and aquamarine.
And the day ended with this fabulous sunset ...
