I have the same birthstone as you. So, you must be a January kid. Right? I don't care for the garnet either, as I feel it is too dark. I really like the topaz and pink ice pale colors, but, January is garnet, so that's what I have. I have some ear rings and rings to match.

Amethyst is beautiful. I just bought some earrings to match my purple top. I love that color, lucky you. I am garnet, yuk. Too dark.

My birthstone is Aquamarine. I don't really like it at all. It usually looks like some cloudy diamond. They are almost never blue enough. My old boss made me a ring for my birthday when I still worked there and he found an aquamarine that was a perfect blue color. Its the only one I have ever liked.

Mine is an opal. I love it. They can be so beautiful. Problem is they are very expensive. So I usually have to go with the cheaper version for my birth stone which is a pink sapphire. It's ok but not as nice as the opal. My sister's in garnet though and she loves hers. She has several things with the garnet in it.

I was born in May and my birthstone is an emerald. I love it I think its beautiful, I love the deep green color that it posseses.
My daughter on the otherhand was born in November and she has that yellow citrine birthstone I dont care too much for that and I'm hoping that I will never get a mothers ring!!
I know shame on me right???

My birthstone is the diamond.It's okay.I don't see what the big fuss is over diamonds,they seem kind of plain to me. I prefer gems with color like sapphires,rubies,etc although I do prefer pearls over gemstones.

thanks so much for noticing that I have not been here much. a few weeks ago I was having trouble with the icons, photos, etc. loading here. I had to email mylot a few times but now it is working. I have been not on mylot much ever since. I will try and get here more often. I think the peridot is nice. it`s kind of like a lime green.
