Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving is creeping up quickly on us. and now is the time to give thanks for all the things in life we have to be grateful for most notably family and friends. Giving a card is a very simple gesture, but often a handmade card goes a long way in someone's heart. Here are some handmade paper goodies to pass along to one of those we love and give thanks for.

Citrine

Citrine is November's birthstone. It is a variety of quartz with colors ranging from pale yellow to brown. It's nearly impossible to tell cut citrine from yellow topaz visibly. Citrine has ferric impurities and is rarely found naturally. In fact most commercial citrine is artificially heated. Here are some citrine/citrine inspired handmade items.

Chocolate Candies

It's nearing that time of season where all the goodies come out and we can get started on eating the night away (and day for that matter) -- so my suggestion is to start with some yummy chocolates, I mean who can resist chocolate?
