@crabapples Thanks- i love your bangle- I would like to buy a better jade bangle in the proper size. Is it common to have a bangle feel off like I do?
Thank you and yes. I feel energies from my bangles too and I will swap them (once the others arrive maybe tomorrow) according to how I’m feeling. I never thought I would have more than one bangle but it definitely gives off different vibes for me too.

My hand is much bigger then my wrist and isn't nimble. I bought a bracelet in my actual size and got it on after losing weight. Wore it for months and it started feeling hot and wrong. Wanted it off and nothing worked, so I had to destroy it to get it off.

Does this ever happen to anyone? I have 5 bracelets that I wear individually and then eventually swap out. At some point, they just don't feel right.

I loved the look of the smaller bangle but don't want yo destroy another beautiful piece of jade.
I definitely switch mine out often as well. Sometimes I feel drawn to one. I’m currently wearing cookies n’ cream. The nephrite just feels so smooth and creamy. And I’ve always loved white in accessories. But next week, I’ll probably have a different bangle.

I love having S’more on my left permanently. She’s white so she will go with any bangle I wear on my right!
You have a beautiful collection, Alex. Now we are both wearing somewhat white coloured bangles. Cookies n’ cream sounds good!

I think with the new bangles I will wear Lila first. I was going to wear Spring but who knows. I need her lovely green energy.

Almost to Friday!

Yay, happy almost Friday to you too! And I like wearing my bangles on my left too. I find that wearing bangles on my right is cumbersome, since I write so much. I’m gonna have to get used to it though since I’m getting an Apple Watch soon, and don’t want to wear the watch and bangle on the same hand lol. 78D00E69-9C61-42E4-BB8C-42D9975C89A9.jpeg
And here is cookies n’ cream.

I’ve been wearing a bangle on my right hand for the same reason. I wear a watch on my left. I tried to wear my watch on the right but it annoyed me so much and just did not look or feel right. I’ve gotten used to wearing Skye on my right hand and S’more is safe on my left. Love cookies n’ cream. Where did you buy her again?

I am going to pick up the UJ bangles tonight. Pics will be posted!

I purchased this pendant from Jade Rabbit Gems on Etsy. It was advertised as “no visible stone vein and no rough surface”. However, the pendant has a crack in it so I will be returning this to the seller and have asked them to cover the return shipping costs as this is misrepresented. Two for two in terms of buying from new shops and that’s it. I’ve learned my lesson. I’ll just stick to UJ and Allan from now on.

Can’t recommend this shop due to lack of flaws disclosure.

Oh spring is so pretty! It’s like a creamy green. I like the band. I was hoping to look through UJ jadeite but I noticed that she’s in vacation. Here are some of my pendants. I didn’t take a picture of all of them because I’m too tired. These are the ones I wear the most.

I got this one from UJ, w/ a twisted gold bail. It’s a pretty Chonky pendant. I love wearing it. It looks greener in some lighting. It’s got great texture. My favorite jadeite pendant.

I also got this one from ultimate jadeite. I got it because it looked like a cucumber lol. I also thought the green was super pretty. Like a gold green. The texture is good, but not as good as my leaf pendant.

I got this one from Mason Kay Jade. It’s a carved dragon. I really like it, but there are some areas that are not polished as well. I didn’t mind that, but one day I dropped it, and I got the feeling it got scratched in one corner. I thought I could file down the roughness; I was wrong. Now I kinda messed up a corner of it. I don’t wear it as much anymore because of that. I can’t believe i did that to it, ugh. And again, I don’t want to send it to get polished due to mail being unreliable.
