Hi Janet,

    That sounds familiar! I went to a trade show a couple of weeks ago
    with the intention of buying lots of cabs in order to make jewellery
    to sell. What I actually ended up with were beautiful cabs and slabs
    of rhodochrosite, ocean jasper and boulder opal for myself - stones
    I couldn't resist! 

    I did end up buying some beautiful pearls and a couple of strings of
    flat beads that I can set as cabs, but not quite the outcome I'd
    hoped for. However, if the circumstances that have happened recently
    are anything to go by, me wearing these pieces may well turn into
    business. I'm finding myself in the position where I am going to
    have to start selling, as I am getting orders from people and being
    asked to provide quotations for pieces. I have had so many people ask
    me for my website address too but as yet, it doesn't exist so I'm
    losing business before I've even begun. I've had my second definite
    order and a request for a quotation for some corporate cufflinks made
    with the company's logo! 

    I need to get organised!
