dirtygreatknifeI recieved my gift on Friday--not one, but TWO! I was so surprised and very grateful. It's been a difficult three months here, so this was a very welcome and appreciated surprise.
The first packet I opened was fromelwinfortuna and WOW. It's a set of five pieces of handmade jewellery that are Babylon 5 themed. I've loved that show from the first time it aired, and to have this unique collection of stunning pieces really thrilled me. The photo really doesn't do it justice, and I did take several shots to try and get a photo that would do all the amazing pieces justice, so you'll just have to imagine it's a million times better in real life than in this photo. I did chuckle at the Drazi necklace--"He who takes green is green leader, he who takes purple is purple leader," so like Ivanova in the episode, as I have both, I'm now leader of both, which is a win. I love the bracelet which is themed to the episode "Deconstruction of Falling Stars," one of my favourites in the show, along with "Sleeping in Light" which got its own necklace, and "Shadow Dancing" which are the earrings. I love the choice of stones in the "Born to the Purple" necklace, they're so unique and perfect for that episode. It's like Amy read my mind! Thank you so much, I love, love, love it all, and I can't wait to be able to go somewhere that I can wear these pieces.

The second packet was fromyourlibrarian and contained eight various necklaces made in different themes from my list of likes. I particularly liked the colour choices and stones used, and the art deco ones are gorgeous with their shiny pieces and beads. As with the first set, the photo does not do these pieces justice, and so you'll have to imagine them looking a million times better in real life, which, like the first set, I know is hard to do. Again, I look forward to being able to go out somewhere when restrictions are lifted here so I can wear these pieces. Thank you so much for all of these, I love them all so much, and thank you for your generosity in making so many, I have so much to choose from!
