Re: Did anyone order any of the items featuring gemstones from CP's treasure chest?

Hi Everyone!!

I am new to this forum but I am glad to be here with all of you! I did a lot of damage this 4th of July weekend and I am still deciding if I want to order a few more pieces.

I ordered the 36 inch turquoise necklace, the triangle turquoise earrings and I am on advance order for the three stone ring and cuff (don't know if they are treasure pieces)

I also ordered the jasper and turquoise feather necklace and the OTO silver ring (not treasures).

And I am on advance order of the OTO cuff and the 17 inch coral necklace and the 17 inch onyx necklace (not treasures).

Wow! Writing it all out makes me realize that I did order soooooooo much lol

But having many of the pieces not shipping until October makes the credit card feel a little better.

I am so super bummed I missed out on the turquoise and coral cuff, the multi gem flower cuff and the squash blossom turquoise single stone enhancer.

I wanted to know from you all if anyone ordered the north/south turquoise enhancer? Since that is still available and I missed out on the single turq squash blossom one I was thinking of getting it. What do you all think?

Thanks for listening!!

Welcome Jenbisous, and congrats on all those pretties . . can't wait to hear all about them - especially the turq triangle earrings . . niiiice! I think that north/south turq enhancer is sweet, but if you liked the squash blossom one better - you should go on waitlist. It is a new piece, so it most likely will come back. I really love the earrings that match that sq bl enhancer . . price a little high though, so I may wait for them to go on sale.

Hi Azcowgirl - any goodies coming today?!

Re: Did anyone order any of the items featuring gemstones from CP's treasure chest?

I ordered quite a bit, but then I did last July 4th and didn't regret a single purchase. So I planned to go down in a blaze of glory on this one. I love my turquoise and I love the way Carolyn and Bill work with it. I worked in a jewelry store 25 years ago that sold hand-crafted jewelry and have been hooked on jewelry, Native American jewelry and turquoise every since.

Of the treasures, I ordered the green turquoise and leather toggle bracelet, the coral and turquoise cuff (on waitlist), and the turquoise 36" necklace (on waitlist). I wish I could have gotten the single squash blossom enhancer and earrings.

I also got the red coral naja (that was #1 on my list for the show), the red coral 17 - 22" necklace, the red coral bead and leather memory wire bracelet, the leather memory wire charm bracelet (I have her leather necklaces and the leather magnetic necklace and want these to wear with them) and the TSV cuff and the Kingman magnetic enhancer. I was going to pass on those but thought I'd give the TSV a try and then when I saw the Kingman I had to have it (I have the leather toggle necklace and loved them together on the show).

Frankly, I could have bought more but my blaze of glory pocketbook could only go so far. I do want to retire one day... Although, I am considering that coral ring to wear with my red coral naja.{#emotions_dlg.devil2}

I thought they'd get delivered yesterday but no. I have warned my husband so he doesn't pass out when all these little QVC packages arrive. Oh, how I wish they'd box them together! I will report back on my haul when it arrives.

{#emotions_dlg.laugh} Qualia...a woman after my heart! LOL! All the ladies on this porch who have been meeting here for a while do understand exactly! (You didn't mention the gardenia enhancer I encouraged you into and necklace that were on sale. And since I didn't have THAT one, I decided to get it as well. It's a pure white unlike my magnesite one which has a few lines of dark matrix.) Enjoy all your goodies. Can't wait to hear how you like them in person.

My coral naja should arrive today or tomorrow. The ring was shipped later. That "funky and interesting" leather pendant is on waitlist, thank goodness.

Qulia - wow - you are starting to remind me of fthe ""old me"" - LOL- it's really hard to resist her pieces - and they are so well made - I had to quit buying so much in the past few months because it just got too crazy - but you definitely are welcome to our ""porch"" - we love anyone who appreciates what Carolyn & Bill are doing - incredible work with a lifetime warranty!! and made in the USA - what could be better.

Sisters - I am finally going to make my Alb./Santa Fe trip in the Spring - finally found the perfect person to go with me - we are planing for the first week in May and are driving - so exciting --Kachina - are you listening? Maybe we can finally hook up and hit that ""Turquoise Museum"" and get a tour of Relios studio? It's all in the planing stage - want to hit it on the first Friday of the month because that's when CP's outlet store has their special events - I think - like I said - still in the planing stage but we are determined to go!!

LOL! I did, indeed, get the gardenia pieces and the necklace has shipped but the enhancer is still pending. Go figure. I ordered the enhancer first and went back and got the necklace. Now I'm as bad as my two dogs sitting at the window waiting for the mailman.

Cooking Lady, my purchase come in waves (that seem to coincide with Carolyn's shows). When the monsoon comes in I get all swept up, but when it subsides my head clears up. But I do get a great deal of joy wearing my pieces. Wore the super nova naja on Monday on the leather cord with a black Logo t-shirt and khaki crop pants and Born black sandals. Added the sleeping beauty coil leather coil bracelet from last year and I felt so bold.

Hey, I think your trip sounds awesome and I look forward to hearing about it. A few years ago I went to a conference at the Gaylord Texan. There was a Sincerely Southwest store there. This was retail so I only purchased a few small charms as gifts but I was like a kid in a candy store seeing all the gorgeous pieces I'd seen on QVC and on her website in person. It was sensory overload! I can only imagine if I could get to the outlet. They'd have to carry me out on a stretcher. {#emotions_dlg.tt1}

Thank you all for the warm welcome!!

I can't wait to get my pieces and I will let you know when they arrive.

So, do you girls think that the waitlist treasures will come back into stock? I was worried because the hosts kept saying that when it is gone its gone Smiley Sad
