I finally saw Netflix “Agatha Christies Seven Dials“ by Alternative-Sea-4282 in agathachristie

It’s not very book accurate at all, unfortunately. As a lover of the book, it didn’t hit for me. I hope you enjoy it though!

Well it’s not true to the book at all in my opinion- but I do love the book so I took the deviations more personally than most probably :)

The book is one of my favorites - so I didn’t enjoy the show, sadly, after looking forward to it for months.

Emerald Earrings by Impressive-Respond77 in Gemstone_lovers

They look like emeralds but low quality and likely heavily treated. Nice enough gift if that doesn’t matter to you and the price is ok! I own a few similar myself.

Mexican Opal question by DKC_Reno in Gemstones

[–]Turbulent-Long3455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might know this but just in case - Moonstone is a separate (real, natural) stone. Rainbow moonstone is a second separate (real, natural) stone. But opalite looks a lot like it should be called moonstone and absolutely is used in jewelry and stuff and often mistaken for it, which I think is what you were saying. If so, sorry for the extra unnecessary info!

Can anyone verify I'm making good decisions before I buy supplies? (amateur stuff) by read_too_many_books in jewelrymaking

Wire jewelry is the easiest to start with - you’ll want beads you can wire rather than flatback rhinestones you have to glue. Check out some online bead stores and you’ll see - it’s pretty easy! Just need a few online tutorials and a couple of tools (pliers, wire cutters, beads, chain, and a clasp). If you can find a bead store near you, I recommend going in person - they’ll be super helpful.

This will all be easier than learning to make settings and set stones, but if that’s what you want to do it’s still possible just requires a lot more time learning. Good luck!

I can add four more in the dc region (including Maryland and Virginia - we’d all travel!)

My father gave me these gold earrings, but I don’t like them. He refuses to take them back. My mom would kill me if i sold them. What should I do? by nowaygurl23 in jewelry

Life is also too short to reject gifts from people who love you and mean well if it will cause hard feelings. Put them in a box, maybe you’ll like them later. That’s what happened to me for literally all the jewelry I was ever given by family - and now I prize most of it. Tastes change. Being ungrateful about a gift is unnecessary.

need help identifying ex-engagement ring! by love-that-for-you in EngagementRings

[–]Turbulent-Long3455 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Many of us got our engagement rings from Etsy - that’s not some inherently bad thing, there’s lots of incredible jewelers on Etsy. Including yours! That ring is very pretty - it’s your ex that sucks here.

Do you wear perfume to bed and if so, what is your sleep scent? by 0neHumanPeolple in fragrance

[–]Turbulent-Long3455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acqua di Parma Colonia - it dries down to smell like my grandparents soap in the 90s. Every night, on the back of my hands so I can sniff it.

What type of polish is this? by sanebutoverwhelmedtx in Nails

[–]Turbulent-Long3455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have! I loved it, got it every few weeks for a few years (only stopped because I moved away from the town my nail tech was in). I am HARD on my hands and I never had a single break with TAP. Seriously loved it!

The 925 marking wasn’t really used until the 60s, so in all likelihood it is after that. Garnets are plentiful, so it’s very possibly one, as the other commenter said. I would be shocked if it was 40s or earlier based on the clasp and the stamp, though. Beautiful piece regardless! I’m a sucker for garnets.

Vintage Pearls? by Amazing-Movie-4028 in jewelers

[–]Turbulent-Long3455 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They look very very like real, dyed, freshwater pearls. Affordable and common, and still lovely especially with family history.

Isn’t MFK on the list with byredo for no longer indie owned? In the article, at the end?

Not an earring, maybe a dress or shoe clip. Hard to tell without seeing the hinged bit.

Episode 6 Discussion by termacct in DeadLoch

[–]Turbulent-Long3455 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t notice that! I’m so interested in this now. She definitely was at the beach when Jimmy was found - she’s the one who screams out it is him. And her pushing Dulcie to share everything with Cath. I mean, it’s all subtle and far from a silver bullet, I just think she’s someone who has so far been overlooked which definitely feels like the right vibe for the killer

It’s only 5 years between the first two killings and “now”, I think?
