Summer is not for Semiprecious Stones

The weather is not too good in this period. It's too hot. We suffer not only the elevated temperatures but humidity maybe more. Everybody claims the sun activity but than rememberes that we are never content with it. Well, here, in Italy we have more "spring" months than in other places, so we have only survive July and August.

Why I write it here, in a blog about the semiprecious stones and hand-made jewelry? It's simple. It's unpossible to wear stones when you sweat every minute and you are bathed in it every minute even if you have the possibility to take bath every time you want.

Not only it's not pleasant, to have something sticked to the skin. The problem is for the stones too. They absorb sweat and become opaque.



What can we do with it? I think nothing. I personally avoid to wear anything except my wooden mala, and even them I do not like on the wrist. Patience is virtue, they say. We have to wait till August, 16. After "Ferragosto", the Italiasn feast of the middle of the August, air is not too hot more. And, if we speak about our stones, we finally can wear what we like.

Till that period I have to make different bracelets for my friends. Everybody loves them. One moment... I'll find the address... Here, Garnet Red. I even have to make one for me because my friend asked me to gift her MY bracelet and earrings from ametyst. So, I have much to do this summer. :-)))

I hope, you can go to swimm. Do it for me too, because I can't, sea is far from here. I could swimm only once else...
