@Alex B how long have you been collecting jade? Just wondering how you amassed your bangle selection. Do you have rings or pendants too? Sorry if you’ve shown them before, I often forget. Were you the one with the large carved handheld pendants and the purple palm stone? Or maybe that was moneymeister.

Happy Friday everyone!
 
I've got Jade fever and I've got it bad. However, my wallet doesn't. So in the interest of saving my money, I dredged up all my bangles, (nephrite and jadeite) to try to make my brain understand that I HAVE ENOUGH. Help me decide which new bangle I should wear for the beginning of 2023.
What a great collection! I'm hoping to get my butt in gear to lose enough weight so I can swap my bangles out again. Last year I got close a few times, but then I would get distracted. I'm going year 3 with my black bat.
Ooooh it’s so hard though. There’s a bangle I found on Etsy that’s carved to look like a snake. My Slytherin heart is obsessed with it.
This very unique looking. If you love it, get it. My largest and smallest carved bangles were heart-purchases rather than for practical bangle wearing. Better to have it and love it or figure out it's not what you thought and can sell it than be left wondering forever!
Hi, Alex B!
I must say that I like Cotton Candy very much.

Wearing my Yukon bangle from Allan day and night.

What do all of you think of this phoenix one?
Hi Uli!

Gojade has some great carved bangles right now. I'm watching a dragon bangle that looks like a sister of the phoenix you posted. I don't need it and it's too big and I don't want to spend money on it, but I still think it would be awesome to have. I think your wrist would look great with a phoenix on it!

Junkenpo you are right. Also life is too short to not get what we like at least some of the time. We all work so hard. I was trying to save Alex B some money but at the end of the day, money can be made again.

Hi, Junkenpo! I was deciding between the dragon and phoenix one! They are both oval, so I hope it will fit me....
What do you think about the jade itself ? It reminds me of Guatemalan jade.
