I am off to read about the Luminists. <br /><br />I want to thank you for featuring Tali's beautiful treasury and my vintage amethyst German rough-cut rondels. I have been collecting beads since I was a very young girl, and I feel my little roughcuts are outstanding because of their depth of color. <br /><br />Amethyst is the February birth stone and is also considered the stone of sobriety. It is supposed to be calming and soothing, leading to clear insight.Little Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543882404305526764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205826728456790774.post-26100064658002404752012-02-06T13:57:10.063-05:002012-02-06T13:57:10.063-05:00Nice article on the MMOA.

My purple neck scarf included in the treasury would be a lovely addition to a person's wardrobe for these cold winter days. Deep purple leaves run the length of the scarf and is very striking.Twisted Stickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06866312304416383471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205826728456790774.post-19473104705674902542012-02-06T12:55:57.820-05:002012-02-06T12:55:57.820-05:00Purple for centuries has been the color most assoc...Purple for centuries has been the color most associated to royalty. This is due to the fact that when using natural dyes,in Europe before the discovery of the New World, purple was one of the colors which was difficult to produce as a fiber and fabric dye. The main source was from a type of marine mollusk, which made the dye very expensive, thus the color of royalty.<br /><br />The appropriateness of the color purple for February comes from the tradition that Amethyst is the birth stone for this month.<br /><br />The inclusion of our Purple Multicolor Colonial Wool Roving, that is used to spin yarn and ultimately produce a fabric, as one of the representations of the color purple for February , is perfect.<br />It relates both to the historical use as a color in fibers, fabric, and clothing plus it represents the color itself, the last color in the Rainbow.<br /><br />Thank you for including the Treasury that featured our product in an article that points out the artistic use of the color.Brush Creek Wool Workshttp://www.brushcreekwoolworks.etsy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205826728456790774.post-81640529269430423642012-02-06T12:38:51.683-05:002012-02-06T12:38:51.683-05:00Beautiful paintings, great blog article and wonder...Beautiful paintings, great blog article and wonderful treasury.

My amethyst nugget cluster bracelet is featured in the treasury.<br /><br />I love all the birthstone colors, but amethyst is one of my favorites because purple is such a beautiful color. Because amethyst is the birthstone that represents February, my bracelet would make a wonderful birthday gift for any female birthday baby.<br /><br />Thanks again for featuring my treasury.<br /><br />TaliTalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350431112658976820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205826728456790774.post-42173557480845517062012-02-06T12:25:19.842-05:002012-02-06T12:25:19.842-05:00Absolutely wonderful article and the paintings you...Absolutely wonderful article and the paintings you have shown are just stunning.
