Hi everyone! We are up to the letter J in The A-Z Blogging Challenge. J for jewelry. That is another area I am all set with. I don’t own a lot of jewelry. I have a few nice pieces that my hubby gave me when we were dating and several rings one of my neighbors gave me before she passed away in 2005. The rest is costume jewelry, mainly from those stupid Lia Sophia parties I used to get invited to years ago. Did any of you ever attend those parties?
And now, please caption this:

My caption is Double stretch yoga then sleep
Cute. π XO
Playing is hard work…time to rest and recharge for the next session!
And I have never heard of those jewellery parties…
That would be a hard thing for me to de-clutter…it fits many categories, here…inherited things, sentimental items. Valuable things, things I have made myself, and junk (LOL). My dad was a gemologist/jeweler and a watchmaker/clock-maker with his own business…that is the catch here; and my undoing for de-cluttering all the various items.
Consider yourself lucky. How cool that your dad was a watchmaker and gemologist. I bet you have a lot of nice pieces. XO
Exactly. π XO
“Will you please stop talking I am trying sleep” π
Have a captiontastic week π
MOL! π
I clean out my jewelry box about once a year…..lots of “junk” went by the wayside last year and right now all I really have are things that are important to me. Never heard of Lia Sophia but sounds like it must have been one of those parties where you’re supposed to/expected to buy something even if you don’t need it!!!!
Hugs, Pam
You are wise to go through every year. Yes, that is how the parties were. XO
Two diamonds in the rough on a sea of emeralds.
MOL! Tuffy is definitely a diamond in the rough. I wish he would let me brush him. XO
“Yes you did!”
“I did NOT!”
“Did too!”
“I did not”
“Did!”
” Not!”
LOL!
Cute. π XO
MOL! π
Want to know about the parties! Like Tupperware or. Avon, haha?
Yes, like a Tupperware party and just as boring. XO
I never heard of Lia Sophia! I only ever went (or was invited) to one jewelry party. I bought the cheapest earrings which promptly tarnished. Sigh. At least with Tupperware, you got something more useful.
I should go through my jewelry as it is probably tarnished too. π XO
caption – I’ve been photo bombed by one of the pesky orange cats and I don’t like it!
I don’t wear much jewelry but I have several nice pieces from my hubby.
MOL! π XO
I’ve never been a big jewelry person so I haven’t been to those parties. That picture is so sweet.
I am not a jewelry person, but got suckered into the parties. XO
I’ve never been to any of these parties and wouldn’t go. The only jewelry I wear is my wedding band. That’s it.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. Scritches to all the kitties and a big hug to you. β₯
I rarely even wear my wedding band. π XO
Those parties sound like tupperware, but with jewelry.
“This seat is taken. Please find somewhere else to sit.”
Exactly- and just as boring. Good caption. π XO
Furry foot warmer! Hmm, jewelry
I wore clip- on ear rings for awhile, then became allergic to them. I need to give those away or donate ’em. XO
MOL! π One of my holes closed so I never wear earrings now. I should get it re-pierced. XO
Brody, not enough room for you up here! I can’t think of anything after reading Carole’s caption… Hahahah! I have never heard of Lia Sophia. I never went to any of those parties for buying stuff… just the introvert in me.
I am an introvert and it troubled me greatly, but my niece and her boyfriend’s mom had them before she was married. XO
I have a lot of junk jewellery from years back. I also have good necklaces and rings that Ivor bought me and I only wear them on cruises. I have antique bracelets and brooches my gran gave me and would never part with them even though I don’t wear them.
I would be afraid to wear them as I lose things. XO

Proof that Hell has frozen over!
I wear earrings, but not much else anymore, although I have a goodly sized collection of costume necklaces and bracelets.
MOL! π These 2 are good friends. I never wear earrings because one of my holes closed. XO
Mom went to Premier parties years ago.
I haven’t heard of Premier. These were Lia Sophia.
Iβve never been to a jewelry party. Cute photo.
Caption: βDid I say you could sleep on my chair?β
Consider yourself lucky. π Cute caption. XO
Brody: A little more to the left please!
MOL! π
I used to have a stash I bought on eBay, but I never wear any jewelry anymore.
CAPTION: When the eyes of the guy behind you on the couch turn DAYGLOW ORANGE, it’s time to get a little FLOOR-ESSENCE of your own!
You are so clever with words. XO

Yes, very good caption. π That is a lot of rings at once. I don’t even wear my wedding ring most of the time. π XO
Not much in the way of jewelry here, either. We had other parties, the Christmas stuff is one i remember.
Caption: Babysitting is for the birds. If he’s taking a nap, I’m taking a nap.
Cute caption. I would have liked a party with Christmas stuff. XO
“I’m running out of room!”
Time to add on. π XO
Same with me for jewelry. I don’t have much, so there’s no need to go through it. xo
I am glad there are some areas I don’t have a lot of stuff. XO
I just came from Brian’s Home where three kitties there were doing a thing called, “Coughing”. Is this what these two are doing, too? I’m really going to have to get in on this action (or lack of)! πΈ
I have a few nice pieces of jewelry other than my engagement ring & wedding band DH has gotten me over the years. I don’t wear those things much, though. I really like them so whenever we go out I try to wear a pretty necklace or bracelet that he got me. π
Keep going on the A2Zing and decluttering!
Thank you. My engagement ring and original wedding ring no longer fit. π
I donated most of my jewellery a couple of years ago to the Princess Project — I don’t wear a lot of jewellery and found that giving it away made me a lot happier than having it sit in a drawer.
