Title: I hung um cause they cain't spell malakite
Post by: wampidy on May 09, 2015, 04:03:49 PM

Malakite, malakite, malakite there is no chu in malakite.

Sold the first one for fifty bucks. Don't have a clue if that is good or bad. She sucked in a little air then said yes. I let out a little air and kept my mouth shut. My interior was saying YES so I guess we are both happy.
Here they hang.

I chose the wrong damn animal again. I said fish facing left and my son said bird facing right. HUH what bird? The eye with the beak pointing right dummy. HUH? I have been working on this this this damn thing for all this time and I was so fishy I did not see the bird. Same story different rock.

Fish? Bird? It's a pretty green rock and let the buyer define it, nice work whatever animule it is. Good to know that folks will fork over that money for your work isn't it? :WEEEE:

No matter how you say it, spell it or define it, in the end they are very pretty stones that someone was willing to pay for.  Ain't life grand?   :icon_sunny:
