On Saturday I posted about the Local Jewellery Fundraiser for Haiti – here’s a quick update in case readers haven’t seen Desiree commenting with current bids:
As of Saturday the highest bid was $200, then $225, then $250 and now a whopping $300!
To quote Desiree, she is ‘over the moon’ at the generosity of others, and wants to remind everyone that bidding will be open until Wednesday, January 20th at 5pm Pacific time.

OMG!! It just crossed my mind that my birthday is in September, so my birthstone is (you guessed it) Sapphire…. so maybe it’s my husband bidding on this gorgeous SAPPHIRE ring? He had my wedding rings designed with sapphires integrated, so wouldn’t this pretty little bobble look fantastic on my middle finger next to my wedding set? I think so!
But if he’s not one of the bidders….hmmm – I think I shall show him my middle finger anyway!
