Dizzy Chick Lori Z says:Love Charoite! I like your choice of the Imperial Jasper with it!

movie chick aka susan says:cool pick!…the charoite is kinda pricey in my book, I have not purchased any, how about y’all?
On May 16, 2009 at 11:07 pm #
DOG Chick aka Angela says:This is beautiful. I have not purchased the charoite but would love to see it too.

Southern Chick says:Thanks Lori! And finally here is the pic of the scarab necklace. I felt my Charoite pick needed just a bunch of red. Thank you again for your comment.

Dizzy Chick Lori Z says:I have some of the 10×8 ovals, and they are pretty! They have a soft luster that reminds me of a pearl nail polish being swirled around. Some have a golden cast to them & would look nice with ametrine or citrine, or the right shade of rutilated quartz.
The larger sizes would be nice to have, but not in my budget.

Southern Chick says:Maybe now you can see that picture…
On May 16, 2009 at 11:25 pm #
movie chick aka susan says:Yes, I can see it and can I just say ‘WOW’…I really like it!
On May 16, 2009 at 11:27 pm #
Dizzy Chick Lori Z says:Woo Hoo!!! You did it!!!
That’s a GREAT necklace, thanks for working so hard to share it! That’s a keeper, right?

Southern Chick says:The charoite that I saw today was $67 per strand. Lb’s prices are much better on the ones that I saw today.
On May 16, 2009 at 11:28 pm #
movie chick aka susan says:good gravy…that’s alot dough for one strand!
On May 16, 2009 at 11:33 pm #
Southern Chick says:It really was obscene for a strand of beads! I didn’t buy any, needless to say
On May 16, 2009 at 11:34 pm #
Southern Chick says:Dizzy, I hope that its a keeper..I can’t just go and find the scarabs again…so I think that I’d better say no to selling this one. I did get a little smarter today. I bought doubles of everything, so I can sell one and keep one…
On May 16, 2009 at 11:38 pm #
Dizzy Chick Lori Z says:That is insane $$$ for beads! Lima’s prices are sooo much better than anyone I know of. I have expensive taste, too. Their prices for Charoite, Seraphinite & Ocean Jasper can’t be beat! (all those beads that are limited in supply)
On May 16, 2009 at 11:39 pm #
Dizzy Chick Lori Z says:Oh, you are getting in deep, Southern Chick! I hope you have lots of storage space! I have done the same thing, and boy has my inventory grown!
On May 16, 2009 at 11:42 pm #
Southern Chick says:Well, thanks for the “Chick Chat”. I have to go to sleep now. I’m beat! Have a great one y’all!
On May 16, 2009 at 11:43 pm #
Dizzy Chick Lori Z says:Me too! Night! (I actually said bye 15 min. ago to Smoky Rose)

ChickyD aka Debra says:Mmmmm, BEAUTIFUL necklace, Southern Chick! I love it!
On May 17, 2009 at 12:47 am #
Smoky Rose says:I’m sorry, Lori – been busy beadin’… sorry I missed that and you.

Southern Chick says:Thanks for the comment on my scarabs Chicky D…I was in bed last night before I saw your comment. How are things going in the big state of T this am?
On May 27, 2009 at 10:31 pm #
DOG Chick aka Angela says:Ok, I bought a strand of the Charoite and it is OMG gorgeous!
On May 27, 2009 at 10:46 pm #
Elaine aka Belly Chick says:Oohhh…Southern Chick…I love your scarab necklace! I have seen something like those blue scarabs on another site (eBay?) but didn’t buy because I had no idea what to do with them. But you have given me some delicious ideas with your picture! Thanks!
I have admired the Charoite too but have been shy about it, but maybe soon because of this pick!

Vee aka Dream Chickie says:I’m crazy for charoite too! I love the purple and green combo with a touch of red. Very cool!
