THE BEADING GEM'S JOURNAL

Posted: 12 Aug 2011 04:00 AM PDT

What do you do when you fall for and are about to marry a nerd? You give him his very own USB or thumb drive style wedding ring. Ray Arifianto, who works on the XBox Platform team at Microsoft, received it from his decidedly un-nerdy fiance.

She clearly had no qualms about marrying a nerd and proved it with her chosen design. And as her cleverly chosen engraving says, she hoped "For a lifetime of memories". Get it?

However, you don't need to be getting married to get a USB ring. The Japanese made MemoRing is cool as it really works as an USB!

It'll be hard to misplace this 2GB USB drive - "You can be with your sweet memories at any time." The MemoRing works for both Win and Mac.

The plastic ring comes in 3 colors including a transparent version. One size only - Japanese size 11 which is equivalent to US size 6 according to this ring size conversion chart . It costs ¥3,000 or about US$37.

Blue is a Popular Color for Earrings!

Posted: 11 Aug 2011 03:00 PM PDT

Blue is a very popular color indeed. It's one color which covers a broad spectrum of emotions - from sad all the way to happy. We are always happy to see blue skies and appreciate the beauty of the sea's hue.So it is no surprise when more than one beader chooses to make blue earrings on a single afternoon.

Carol used diamond metal findings to frame part of her rich blue earrings above. Whereas Erica teamed turquoise gemstones with matte white beads and vintage brass findings.

Karen who was visiting from England designed and took home not one, but two pairs of blue earrings! Little did she know that she would be spending such a fun afternoon when she came to Nova Scotia to visit her best friend from way back when.
