 Valentines Day is an opportunity to take time out to show a loved one that you care. This can be a small gesture or a special gift of a card, flowers, chocolates, or jewelry. Whichever you choose, remember its the thought that counts.

Some say the holiday of Valentines Day originates from the story of St.Valentine. Those less romantic may say that Valentines Day is a made up holiday. Either way, February 14th is an opportunity to take time out to show a loved one that you care. This can be a small gesture like simply pausing to say i love you, or making breakfast in bed. But, more often than not, Valentines Day equals gifts; the National Retail Federation estimates that total spending on this day is over $16.9 billion! So what are people buying their Valentines? Cards, flowers, chocolates, and jewelry. Whichever you choose, remember its the thought that counts. According to the American Greeting Card Association, an estimated 190 million greeting cards are exchanged each Valentines Day. Picking up a card is easy, but with such a wide selection available, the hard part is picking out the right one. You should be able to find a card that expresses exactly what you want to say, or better yet, choose a blank one and write a custom message. These days, its not uncommon to send an online greeting, and you can choose from funny, romantic, or even sexy cards to send to your Valentine. Flowers are a Valentines classic, and its easy to find inexpensive, high-quality flowers online. Around Valentines Day there is always a large selection of beautiful arrangements to choose from. Roses are traditional; red roses symbolize i love you whereas yellow symbolizes friendship. In fact, each flower has a different meaning and a little research can mean a lot. For example, red chrysanthemums also symbolize love and make a more unusual arrangement. If you want to get something sweet for your sweetie, chocolate is another popular Valentines gift. Chocolates delivered in a heart-shaped box is always a great idea, but you could also think outside the box. How about a cookie bouquet? If you arent familiar, these are cookies (and chocolate-covered fruit if you wish) mounted on sticks to resemble a bouquet of flowers. If you want to personalize your chocolate, M&Ms now offers the opportunity to print a photo or short message on each piece of candy. While flowers and chocolates are always well received, these items only last so long. You want your Valentine to know your love is never-ending, thus jewelry is always extra special. This year, instead of simply selecting the latest promotion at the jewelry store, consider something different. Jewelry stores always offer a wide selection, but hand-crafted items offer something truly unique. JewelryJohn.com offers inspirational jewelry hand-crafted from sterling silver with remarkable artistry and craftsmanship. Each piece of custom silver jewelry imparts a message that will touch people’s lives. The Love Bell pendant and earring set, for example, is perfect for your Valentine. Each delicate silver piece is intricately designed around the theme of love and comes with story card that reads: Love is a word of many different meanings, to feel affection for, to adore, to be in love with, to be devoted, to care for, to find irresistible, to be fond of! But whatever form of love, it is felt with affection, adoration, friendship, tenderness and fondness. When you hear the Love Bell gently ring, let it be a reminder of how dear you are to me. Jewelry Johns sterling silver jewelry is designed around many themes such as faith, family, and friendship, allowing you to choose the perfect sentiment you want to convey with your gift. Cards, flowers, chocolate, or jewelrythere are many traditional gifts to honor your Valentine, and the ambitious few may give one of each. But, whether its a personalized chocolate or inspirational jewelry, you should put thought behind any Valentines gesture to make it exceptional.

One of the first things to think about before you get a body piercing is what type of piercing you should get. There are many different types of body piercings hitting the waves today that it sometimes makes picking out the perfect one for you a big problem. One thing to consider is how active you are and the chance of your piercing getting pulled out or damaged. It does happen - for example, they can get snagged on clothing or tugged on during contact sports.

Another area to think about is exactly where you will be getting the piercing and if is in a practical place for you. You should think about the places you go in your daily life and should also take into consideration whether or not if you feel it is appropriate to show your piercing or if you want to keep it hidden for private eyes only.

The next step to a good body piercing is knowing the best way to prevent body piercing infections before they happen. A great tip is to prepare yourself for your piercing ahead of time. You should think about the clothing you will be wearing, they should be loose and easy to remove after the piercing. You should clean the area as good as possible even though the piercer will do it before piercing you.

When getting an oral piercing it’s a good idea to rinse with mouthwash after brushing your teeth. Mouth wash is great at killing leftover germs and the piercer will thank you for it. Some people might get a little stressed out during their piercing and could possible even feel dizzy or faint. A good way to avoid this is by going in to the piercing studio feeling at ease and it helps to have a friend with you too. Make sure you are well hydrated and bring a sports drink with you to keep your electrolytes up.

After you get your body piercing there are a few good tips to remember to avoid body piercing infections and speed up the healing process of your body piercing. Most piercers will give you antiseptic to use on your piercing as well as information on caring for a piercing. It is important to keep your new piercing clean and to avoid touching it with dirty hands. By not getting germs on the piercing site the body piercing healing can be as short as a couple of weeks.

If you decide to get an oral piercing make sure to take extra good care of your dental hygiene and rinse with mouthwash several times a day. The mouth heals really quick if you take care of it right. Try to avoid sharp, crunchy and spicy foods until your piercing is completely healed.

 The lost-wax method is a method of casting metal that has been in use for six thousand years. Virtually unchanged since used by the ancients, the method is used today to create such pieces as bronze sculptures, custom silver jewelry, dental work, or even auto parts. Cire perdue, or lost-wax, is a method of casting metal that has been in use for over six thousand years. In essence, it involves the pouring of metal into a mold created from wax, resulting in complex forms otherwise impossible to create. The lost-wax method is used today to create such pieces as bronze sculptures, a silver pendant, a gold dental crown, or even an alloy auto part. The lost-wax method is the best way to create intricate designs in metal, it is commonly used for making elaborate custom jewelry. Technology and tools have advanced of course, but the method is essentially the same as it was when used in Ancient Egypt. The artist will first sculpt his masterpiece out of clay, wax, or another malleable material. Then, the model is encased in plaster or fiber-glass to create a mold. An inner mold will often be created at this time as well, by pouring liquid rubber around the model. This preserves the finest of details, important because when the plaster is broken apart, the original model is usually destroyed. When the two halves are placed back together, the result is the master mold. Inside is empty space, a negative of the original. Hot wax is then poured into the space to coat the sides. Depending on how large the piece, a number of coatings may be needed. The hollow wax copy, an almost perfect replica of the original, is then removed (multiple copies can be created at this time). The wax copy is then chased using heated tools to remove the seams where the mold came together. Each copy is carefully dressed to hide any remaining imperfections. Next, sprues are attached to the piece, which are basically small wax rods that will ultimately result in tiny tubes for metal to flow in, and air to flow out. The wax replica is then coated in ceramic material and fired. At this point, the wax melts out, thus the term lost-wax. Negative space now remains (as well as the small pathways left by the sprues). Finally, molten hot metal can be poured into the mold into the exact shape of the original model. The metal piece is also chased to remove any marks left by casting, and detailed to perfection. If in fact a bronze sculpture, this is when the final act of adding the color occurs. The lost-wax method can be used with any material that will disappear (melt or burn away) and leave an empty mold. For example, some automakers make engine-block models out of a synthetic foam which will vaporize when heated. This complex process allows for the most minute detail to be fashioned into the most delicate of metals. This makes it ideal for custom jewelry. When working with small pieces like jewelry the process slightly differs in that metal cannot just be poured into a such a tiny mold. Instead, liquid metal is injected into the limited space by centrifugal casting (a machine that uses centrifugal force) or vacuum casting (uses atmospheric pressure). Artisans like Jewelry John use the lost-wax method to etch inspiration into their heirloom jewelry. They specialize in hand-crafted silver bells and silver pendants, and with intricate detail they convey emotion in beautiful custom silver jewelry. Such complex designs would not be possible without this ancient casting method.

 Wherever you travel, you need to take your precious jewels with you. The problem is that you are addicted to wearing all that jewelry and feel constrained if you dont have enough of it on your body. Also you cant really wear the same old jewelry every day. You need change and wear different jewelry with different clothes. The solution to all your problems lies in buying a jewelry travel roll or a jewelry case travel. You can easily lug it along with your baggage. Both these pieces of luggage are different but have the same basic use they care for your luggage on your travels. They are handy apart from looking trendy and chic.

Imagine a situation when you have planned to go on a month long cruise with all your friends. You have packed all your clothes and you also know that the month long tour will have lots of formal occasions where you will be required to wear dresses and ballroom gowns along with all your expensive and stunning jewelry. How will you carry all those jewels with you in the tour? The solution is that you carry along another piece of luggage, the jewelry case travel. This case is useful as it is big enough. It will not only contain all your jewelry but once you are onto the cruiser, you can actually set it beside your dressing table for further use.

A jewelry travel roll on the other hand is a smaller version of the case. It is shaped like a pouch with various compartments, some of which also have a zip, inside. You can keep your rings, in the zipped part and your bracelet in the other compartments of the pouch. A typical jewelry travel roll, made of leather or silk can have up to 7 compartments. A jewelry travel roll is useful to store and care for all your expensive jewelry, but since it is compact and small, it can be fitted easily inside your handbag or luggage. This roll is especially helpful when the size of the luggage with you is more.

Both the jewelry travel roll and jewelry case travel are useful pieces of luggage but as we have seen above what you decide to buy should depend more on what you need rather than the looks or the expense. In fact both these baggage are worth every penny of your money, since they are used to care for your exorbitantly costly jewelry. A loss of a single jewel will cover the cost of many such bags. So do not get guided by the price factor but by the factor of requirement.

Finally, before you decide to buy either the jewelry travel roll or the jewelry case travel, check them to see if they are perfect to fulfill your needs (according to the type and quantity of jewelry you own). Therefore ensure whether they are big enough to hold all your jewels and small enough to fit into your bag. Buy the piece of your choice, only when you are completely convinced.

 So, you’re thinking about getting a body piercing. I don’t know if you’ve really thought about it or not but getting a body piercing is a very big decision. There are a lot of things to consider before hand, and it’s a very big responsibility so please, please, please think before you do it. You’ll be happy if you do this - believe me.

The very first thing you must do before actually getting any kind of piercing is to decide what kind of piercing is best for you. In today’s society body piercings are still not accepted among many work places so you need to take this into consideration too. If you plan to get a job, especially in the professional world, a facial piercing such as a nose piercing for example, would not be your best option.

Health wise, there are a lot of issues to seriously take into consideration as well. If you seriously plan to get pregnant, or if you are currently pregnant then a naval piercing, a private piercing, or a nipple piercing would certainly not be an appropriate choice for you. Just common sense don’t you think? It’s just that simple.

After deciding on the kind of body piercing you want, its very important that you (please) make sure you go to a professional piercer. If your piercer does not wear gloves and/or a facial mask, then please get out of there before anything happens. If the needle is not wrapped, or of he does not clean off the place on your body that is going to be pierced, then, same thing, get up, and go somewhere else!

Once you have been pierced, please carefully listen to the instructions from your piercer. And if you have questions, now is the time to ask! It is very important that your piercing is cleaned properly. An infection is a horrible feeling, and you will probably end up with a big medical bill too. This is an easy thing to avoid. If you clean it 3 times a day with the appropriate cleanser, and don’t play with it you will have far less problems! It is also very important to leave your piercing in. The length of time for this depends on exactly what type of piercing you got in the first place. Your piercer should inform you of this too. So. before you run out and get a body piercing without planning, do your research first. Make sure that this is the right piercing for you, and that you are responsible enough to take care of it once you get it!

 Ear piercing is one of the oldest forms of body modifications known to man. The Persians, Egyptians, and Romans all wore earrings for a variety of reasons protection, medicinal purposes, or decoration. They have been a symbol of slavery, or of status, and worn by both sexes throughout history.

Today, the most common reason for ear piercing is simply for decoration. Individuals can pierce almost every part of the ear, but the earlobe is the most traditional. From modern custom silver jewelry to gold heirloom pieces, earrings can be crafted in a variety of styles to be worn in this part of the ear:

Studs. The stud is perhaps the most common type of earring worn. Piercing studs or starter studs are often used to make an initial piercing. A stud consists of the earring with a post that goes through the earlobe, held in place by a clutch. This backing is usually metal but can also be rubber too. Often earrings that contain valuable gemstones will have a back that literally screws on.

Hoops. A hoop earring is just as it sounds a loop of metal or plastic that hoops through the ear. The hoop is often hollow, allowing the thinner portion that slips through the earlobe to slide inside the back to close. A hoop earring may also not loop all the way around and instead have a post with a clutch closure.

Huggies. A huggy earring is a type of hoop earring that hugs the ear. Essentially, it is a hoop that loops snugly around the earlobe. This is common with designers using gemstones as they can be channel set within the circle.

Cuff. An ear cuff, although often worn on the cartilage of the ear, can also be worn on the earlobe. This design is a small C-shaped earring that pinches closed on the ear.

Bajoran. Also called a slave earring, this type of earring is a stud with some sort of chain that attaches to an ear cuff placed upwards on the ear.

Dangle. A dangle earring actually dangles down from the ear, either a short distance or all the way to the shoulders. They are usually attached with a thin wire that clasps to itself after being threaded through the ear. The French hook design simply hooks through the ear and by design will not fall out (often, they will still have a small rubber stopper that is placed at the end of the hook). Dangle earrings offer jewelry designers the most freedom and is often the preferred design by custom silver jewelry makers.

Ear thread. A thread is a usually a thin chain narrow enough to thread through the piercing and dangles on either side. Some earrings are actually studs that achieve the same look by having dangles on either side of the post.

Needle. A needle earring or stick earring is anything that essentially sticks through the piercing similar to a stud post but does not have a clasp on the back. It is able to stay put because it is slightly bigger than the piercing. Larger versions are called plugs, which the wearer achieves by stretching the piercing hole over time.
