8/20/04 - Hi Shirley,  - My package arrived today. The pieces are just gorgeous, even prettier than the pictures. I know this is probably a trade secret but how do you make those perfect "S" swirls on the bracelet and necklace?? I am in awe.  Thanks again for such beautiful work. I am going to have lunch with an old friend today and I think I'll show them off. Can't wait to see what she says.

Sincerely, Yuki C

6/11/2004  -  Shirley~ - The earrings arrived today. Thanks so much - I'm thrilled with them, and I'm sure my friend will be, too, since they're a birthday present for her. Looking forward to doing more business with you!  Sincerely,     ...........   Stephanie

**********************************

6/09/2004  -  Shirley:   I received my Abundance Bookmark today and was thrilled.  Also, I love the circle (I forget what it is called) to go in my change purse.  I need to see what you would charge to make another one for my husband to put in our bank deposit bag at our office? I like this one so well, I want to keep it for myself and put it in my billfold.  Also, when I spoke to you on the phone you mentioned an Abundance Bracelet.  At the time, I declined because I have a Victorian Slide Bracelet that has an amethyst and Peridot, but when I opened my package today from you I could really feel the energy and think maybe your bracelet would be more beneficial to me for what I need now.   I think you are right when you told me about the abundance bracelet benefiting you when it is right next to your skin.

Your work is beautiful.   I am so thankful that I found you.

Many blessings, ...........   Dottie

**********************************

6/05/2004  -  Dear Shirley,    Your pretty earrings arrived today.  I especially like the crystal and citrine carved leaves.  I'd really love a pair of earrings made of each, with 4 leaves dangling on the ends of 4 gold color chains of  varying lengths...from 3 inches and shorter.  Would that be possible?

Ziona

(Ziona,  Your wish is my command, lol!!  We aim to please.  Let me get right back to you and send you a picture when they are done.  And thank you very much!    Shirley)

**********************************

Dear Shirley, - That sounds so beautiful!!!  I am truly grateful to have you make this bracelet.  I'm sure I will be ordering again in the future from you, and will send others your way.  You're a Godsend!

Love, ...........   Kaira

Kiara and Melissa,
A quick note to let you know that your bracelets are finished. I made it a little daintier than the copper one shown in the picture, so that the citrine would not be overpowered by the form of the bracelet itself.   I put the center citrine crystal between to tiny faceted quartz crystals to amplify the energy of the citrine for you.  Quartz is a Universal healer and power stone, balances and aligns all chakras.  Please let me know when it arrives at its new home  :)   Blessings,

Shirley

5/23/2004  -  Hello Shirley,  I checked out your sobriety stones site and see I will spending some time there. I have always been drawn to crystals, incense, aromatherapy, and similar items. I am a nurse and work in a neonatal intensive care. I recently took a Healing Touch class which I found fascinating and useful. It is rare to find someone "mystical" who also makes sense as you do. I have always loved jewelry and lately have become interested in taking some classes. I'm not sure where you are located, I am in Sacramento, CA. Would love to meet you sometime. Sent in an order and am quite sure will place another before long. Take care.   ...........  Susan

 

**********************************

4/23/04  -  Shirley , Thanks ever so much. Like I said, I'm not really bothered about the shipping; I can't think that it would be a bank breaking amount. I absolutely fell in love with these bookmarks. It would be great if you could ship them; this is what all my friends are getting for their birthdays this year.    Many Thanks,  Emily

**********************************

3/15/2004 -  Shirley, I received the earrings today thank you they are totally beautiful, even more so than in the pictures! Maybe they will bring some extra peace and joy into my essence. ...........  Lucinda  www.cindyblack.com

(If the earrings are half as pretty as they look on the computer I'll be very happy. I was looking for jade earrings to wear, since I had a dream that was quite significantly telling me I should put some jade into my life.)

 

**********************************

I came across your website and was very impressed with your work. I have a question regarding the bookmarks. I am interested in the friendship bookmark, however, since this will be a gift to a friend celebrating our 30th year of friendship, I wonder if you can incorporate a pearl or two (representing 30th anniversary) to the bookmark. Also, do you include with the bookmark what each stone, etc. represents?? Please let me know if adding the pearls is ok as well as any addition costs in doing so.  Thank you,  ...........    Kelly

(Kelly, I would be glad to do that for you, at no extra cost!  Your bookmark shipped today!)

**********************************

3/02/04  -  Shirley,    I LOVE THEM! Just wanted you to know that. :) Thank you so much. They're simply wonderful!    ...........   Heather

 

  (On your site you mention that you will make custom  "career" bookmarks  and I'm interested in getting a couple made. They  would actually be a  matching set, both with the same stones. The stones  desired are red  tigers eye, Smokey quartz, rainbow moonstone and  rainbow fluorite. Is  this possible? If so, please let me know. They are  for myself and my  boyfriend.)

**********************************

2/25/2004  -  Hi Shirley!

I just wanted to let you know again that my wrist measurement is 5 3/4 inches. Was my understanding correct that this bracelet is going to be custom made? That's great because being a small person I often find that a lot of things are too large, including rings and bracelets.

I'm really looking forward to receiving my GORGEOUS bracelet :-)  I'm SO excited about getting this bracelet. I love the design.

 

and...

 

2/28/2004 - Hi Shirley!

I just got my bracelet and I absolutely love it! It's every bit as pretty as I'd hoped, and it fits perfectly. Thank you so much!

Thank you too for the wonderful customer service! I'll definitely be recommending your web site and jewelry.  Thank you again!  ...........  Leesa

I?ve enjoyed doing business with you and I will definitely keep you in mind for future purchases. I?ll let you know when the necklace arrives, and I know it will be beautiful.  ...........  Scott

 

2/17/2004  -   Shirley,    I cant believe how accommodating you have been!  Don't worry about making it bigger. It's actually for my mom and she has smaller wrists than I do, so 7 inches should be perfect. Thank you so much for working with me on this, I really appreciate it!

I received it today. It is VERY nice, I am very pleasantly surprised!!! I haven't had a chance to give it to my mom yet, but I'm sure she will love it, and the meaning behind it is beautiful as well!!!! Thank you so much, I will defiantly tell everyone I know about your website and I will continue to shop with you! Thanks again so much!!!  ...........  Stephanie

**********************************

Shirley, - Wow. That was a quick reply! I am thinking of buying the amethyst and rose quartz sterling silver necklace?Pen12. I am intrigued by all of the properties associated with the stones. Does your jewelry come with a card or brochure that explains the symbolism and the spiritual attributes of the stones? My friend would be very interested in it, I?m sure. I will order it within the week. If I order through the website, will I still get the card, or shall I just e-mail you with my credit card information and address? This is great customer service, by the way.

I just placed an order for another necklace. I look forward to receiving the necklace and the card. Thanks again for such good, personal service. I really appreciate it, and I will be sure to mention your website to others.    ...........  Scott P

**********************************

Shirley,  - Thank you sooooo much for your promptness, I truly appreciate it.  I'm relocating across the country and I have so many things on my mind!!! Thanks again!!!!

2/16/2004  - WOW WOW - JUST SUPERB!!!  I have found this website before and used it for the meanings of crystals.

And then low and behold when I get to this site today I find you now have special Sobriety jewelry - and it is gorgeous!!!!

I think you should consider using Sodalite in the range as well. Looking forward to "Keeping coming Back" to drool over your creations.

Many sunny smiles from me to you    ODAAT - ...........  Karen J

1/21/2003  -  Shirley:  My mom will be celebrating one year of sobriety on 1/31, and I have been searching and searching for a meaningful gift. Thankfully, I found your website. I would like to get her the sobriety bookmark, but I just wanted to make sure that if I order it now it will be here prior to 1/31. Also, the descriptions of the stones and how they relate to sobriety are amazing....does something with those descriptions come with the bookmark so she will understand the significance of the stones?

 Thanks so much. Your products are beautiful.  ...........  Jess C.

**********************************

Shirley,
I want to thank you so much for the bracelet... It's BEAUTIFUL!!!

She's very proud to have it.   ...........  Leah H., MA

Shirley, - The bookmark arrived today and it is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous. I don't know how on Earth I can part with it...except that it is going to my best friend in the whole world, so I know I can visit it anytime. I LOVE it, and I hope to be back for more.

Once again, thank you SO much for such an amazing work of art ............  Jan H -
