I've been working hard getting new cabs & jewelry ready for the Grand junction Gem & Mineral show this Mother's Day weekend. Anyone planning to be there, as a vendor or spender? Here are 3 double-sided cabs that are from Utah material - 2 Holt Canyon jasp/agates & 1 Indian Blanket jasper from close to where the Holt material is found. The Holts will be strung on waxed cotton cords with magnetic clasps. The IBJ is top-drilled & has a bail made of half-round sterling wire glued in. Lynn

Nope not vending or spending. Really nice cabs, just don't like the drilled holes. But I always do crazy old style things with my cabs ( i.e silversmith, and wire wrap), which is not considered cool anymore. Putting a jump ring through it is the new cool thing, so you'll sell a ton of these, depending on pricing for the cabs. The milenials love these, if their priced cheaply enough. Good luck at your show.

Those are really nice cabs. I like the material a lot. The 3rd one really catches my eye. Lots of contrast.

Great colors and cabs. I'm OK with the drilled holes. People, like rocks, are all different.

Beautiful material and excellent craftsmanship! I think they'll be a hit. Lots of people liking drilled stones these days. Yours are a bonus- double sided.

Beautiful cabs! The material is first class and the finish is not a bit less than this.

The show was good, but not as good a the Moab Rock club show. Moab is a tourist town. I'll probably do it again next year, though. Lynn
