Rings & Things Trunk Show

Today was a day I have been waiting for. The Rings & Things trunk show was in the Boston area, so off I went. If you are not familiar with this trunk show, they rent out a a hotel ballroom and fill it with pearls, gemstones and jewelry-making supplies. You need to have your business license or an invitation to attend. I often buy supplies online, but it is nice to be able to pick out stones myself. Of course, I wanted about twice as much as I bought! Here are some pictures of my goodies.
