Magic Fairy Dust

Piece #1 of 100 When Shoey and I got together for the first time to rummage through the twenty-pound box of jewelry I had brought from home (funny story about getting it through airport security to be told at another time ), we had a fun afternoon going through the pieces, and looking up the […]
