Vee aka Dream Chickie says:Awww… Thanks Lynn!!! I missed you too!! It’s good to be back. I hope to post more designs soon.
I have seen magnetic wraps online and in stores but not very many with gemstones, usually glass or plastic beads only. So I decided to make my own lol.
I made this one a few months ago and wear it all the time!

Yes, I deactivated it for a bit. noticed how I was spending way too much zombie time on facebook so it had to go for a while lol. Now I am getting more done like posting jewelry here lol. How are you? how was your trip?
