This Easter was very quiet as we didn't do any huge family lunch with family Olympics that normally ends up in A DISCUSSION about wheter the points for the dart should we weighted or not. As if they are no weighted and you have a person in your team that is good at darts you are more likely to win. And winning is what matters.
So we didn't have that, which was both sad and good. No discussion but also none of the nice Easter food and no awesome Swedish Easter eggs. Our eggs are made of paper and filled with sweeties and sometimes if you are lucky money and presents. Here the eggs are made of chocolate and there are only so much chocolate you can eat. Approx one chocolate egg a day, if it's a Cherry Ripe egg. I would suggest buying them on the Monday as they are half price then but still full price tasty.
As the Easter was quiet I was able to finish this ring, that I have had as a custom order for one of mother in law T:s friend. It's a 9 ct gold ring with a huge, I'm talking MASSIVE faceted moonstone. Moonstones are not often faceted as they are quite a soft stone so I was a bit concerned when I was setting the stone that it could get damaged.
But it's done and dusted now and I'm bringing it with me when we go up for Anzac day in the end of April.
Unfortunately I seem to have picked up some form of bug today as I'm knackered and have spent the afternoon sleeping. I will take it very easy tonight and hopefully I will return to full strenght tomorrow and work on the other custom rings that is on my order list.
sicken snygg ring! Verkligen stor sten, bling bling liksom.
ReplyDeletesjälv jobbade jag på påsken, men jag hann sakna att gå upp tidigt och dra på sig vinterjackan över pyjamasen och gå ut och leta ägg som påskharen gömt. Det saknade jag faktiskt...
Hej på er!! Som gammal pilkastare och äggömmare kan jag bara säga: Spar era vackra minnen oavsett vad ni tyckte om dom när det begav sig. Jag tror vi alla saknar sportgrenar som "kast med liten plastelefant i hink" och de många granlaga och högljudda systerdiskusioner som följde poängsamman räkningen. Halvpåklädda barn rusande ruynt tomten saknar jag absolut!!
ReplyDeleteFantastisk ring Maria, håller med om lite bling blin som Lovisa säger men ändå, skitsnygg! Kast med liten plastelefant i hink tror jag var en av våra allra bästa påsktävlingar, det roliga med dessa minnen är ju att i alla fall jag glömmer bort vem som vann; inte var det väl mamma ett år? Vet att hon och Vera spelade pingisfinalen...Saknar också allt detta, det var fantastiskt kul och ofta ganska blött. Alltså av snö och smält snö, inget annat.
