http://www.TerrisTreasures.biz Where To Buy The Best Lapidary Jewelry In Florida.? There is an easy answer to this question hands down. Terri's Treasures!
At Terri’s Treasures she offers unique and affordable gemstone jewelry; Terri saws, cut, and polish the gemstones herself, then she wraps sterling silver or 14ktgf wire around them, therefore, each piece is completely handcrafted, and truly a “one-of-a-kind”.
Each piece is “tagged” with its own identification number, because no two pieces are exactly alike. Pieces are subject to availability. With a wide price range and a large selection of materials, there is sure to be a treasure for
everyone!
It all started in the third grade with a chapter on “rocks and minerals”, in science. The class took a field trip to to a local “rockhound’s” workshop. He explained the tumble polish method and showed us his vast collection of gems. On the way out we each got to choose a polished stone to keep; Terri still has hers.

9. That was it, Terri was hooked! On her
next report card she got straight “A”s
and was rewarded with her first (of
many) real rock tumbler! Her Dad built
a workshop in the basement; and
stones have been her passion ever
since.

11. Terri got older, and moved out of her
parents home, so she packed up her
workshop and stored most of it in the
basement. Terri still displayed her
collection, and stayed interested, but
stopped actively tumbling.
12. Terri started a family, and had a job;
life was good, but something was
missing. Shortly after her second child
was born, Terri really felt like she
needed something for her. A
conversation with a neighbor about her
new agate slice wind chime brought it
all back, and Terri realized what she
was missing.
13. It is difficult to explain why we are
drawn to certain things? Why these
hobbies, or passions make us feel so
happy inside? It could be the beauty
of the gemstones, or the fact that
they are a part of nature; something
so incredible created in the earth, in
the dirt!
14. Nature is amazing. Terri states that
"she is not sure why she feels like a
child at Christmas, or a kid in a candy
store every time she attends a gem
show or rock shop.
15. Terri can’t really explain to you why
she has always felt such a strong
connection to crystals and gemstones.
But what she does know is that she is
truly grateful to have something she is
so passionate about, and so happy that
she gets to share that passion with
you!

of her beautiful pieces of
jewelry!
