Gothic Arch Challenge ~ Favorite Stone


What do you do when one of those stretchy bracelets break? Either fix it or recycle it. I happen to like Peridot. And I do like to recycle. The Lady I freelance for passed this broken bracelet on on to me. And now I think I have put it to good use.

Thank You all for your comments,

No... I passed on taking ballet. My Mom asked me when I was little if I wanted to. I said no way. I was going through a tom boy phase. I regret the choice now. I would of liked to have more decipline and I think I would of learned it through dance.
