Autumn Gems
Topaz and citrine are the birthstones of the month of November. No wonder they make me think fall. Let's also take a look at another warm stone: smoky quartz. What exactly is the difference between these semi precious stones? It can get tricky, but here goes...
Yellow or golden quartz is called citrine. Brownish yellow quartz may be called champagne citrine and bright pumpkin orange to dark orangish red in color usually go by the name madeira citrine. But the skinny is this, citrine is quartz which is warm toned (ie: yellow, orange, brown, red) For comparison, amethyst is purple quartz. Quartz is a common stone with a hardness of 7. It occurs naturally in many, many colors and may be treated to change its color too. Various quartz crystals can form together (usually amethyst or smoky and citrine) to form bi-colored quartz.

What do you do when your hair color ends up a disaster? Can it be fixed at home? Should I save a few dollars by dying my hair at home by myself?Website of the Day: More Cloth
I'm a total DIY freak, and appreciate websites that help me reach my crafting goals. Take my last DIY project: the charging station I made from an Ikea shelving unit. Now if I wanted to take that a step further, I could add some decorative fabric to the back panels and really make the shelf pop.

Nail Polish Haulage and a few NOTD(s)
Ladies, I have a confession to make. I have been witholding items from my fellow beauty junkies, but before you right me off it's due to just not being satisfied with my cameras performance when taking pictures as of late. I don't know what it is, but the pics just aren't cutting it for me anymore so I am looking into purchasing me a new one for the holidays.
