A while ago, my daughter and I were browsing through the annual gem show held at our local auditorium.  One never knows what will catch the eye and tucked into a little corner surrounded by all kinds of oddball items, sat a woman sorting out various pieces from a paper bag.  Hanging on a rack by her side was this absolute clump of necklaces, and I do mean "CLUMP".  We watched as she shook the pile and extracted a single strand from the group and that is how we were introduced to magnetic hematite jewelry and the strange and wonderful things you could do with a single strand.  So we bought two simple strands of black hematite beads interspersed with crystals.  We discovered that they could be looped around the neck, wrapped around the wrist or ankle, and sometimes, they may even decide to change their configuration on their own.  I was so intriqued that I started to do some research and we began to look around until we found classier versions of jewelry using hematite; jewelry that could be worn anywhere - except maybe going through airport security.

I just love the Miss Army Knife.  Every woman should own one.  It has a nail file, perfume bottle, mirror, corkscrew, tweezers, needle and thread and other items, but of course there are a few essentials that the manufacturer failed to include, such as a comb and lipstick holder, but I guess in this imperfect world, we can't have everything.
