This short from Ted Ed is a fantastic introduction to crystals. It talks about how crystals form, and their internal structure. I must admit it took me back to GCSE chemistry lessons😅😂 however, it is well worth a watch. ☺️❤️

Hello crystal community, I hope you all had a lovely weekend. ☺️

Before we get into this weeks Star of The Post, I'd like to take a second to thank everyone for the lovely comments on my recent Fun Fact Friday. I really love creating content for you all, and getting positive comments helps me want to make each video better than the last. ☺️❤️

Now that the Thank Yous have been said, lets get straight into Star of The Post. This week we have a diverse mixture of perfect palmstones, and sublime spheres.

🥇This was an extremely difficult choice, but I have decided to go for the Fire Hematite Quartz Palmstone. The Hematite inside the Quartz really does look like flames! 🔥🧡

🥈This next crystal was so close to getting first place...second place has gone to the Yellow Fluorite Sphere, purely because I love how clear and bright the colour is.

🥉Even third place could have come first this week...In third place is the UV reactive Mangano Calcite Palmstone. Mangano Calcite has become one of my favourite crystals, because it always has super clear UV reactive properties.

Thats it for this weeks Star of The Post. Remember you can find all the other palmstones and spheres by clicking the link below which will take you to the new arrivals section of our website. 👇💜

Because we love our loyal CrystalsnGems community so much, here is a quick post to give you a taste of this Fridays Fun Fact Friday...🤓💜

This Friday is all about Moonstone. Renowned designers like René Lalique used Moonstone to create ethereal, nature inspired jewellery. He designed Jewellery for french jewellers such as Cartier and Boucheron. He was part of the Art Nouveau movement that was extremely popular between 1890 and 1910. Before my research for this Fridays Fun Fact Friday I had no idea who he was! 🤯

Thats just a taster of what you can expect to learn this Friday. Make sure you don't miss this weeks edition, its gonna be a good one!
