What should I do if the moving company people have stolen some of my things?

I just moved from CT to Colorado, and the moving company has been giving us a really hard time. They brought half of our things almost a week late, and still haven’t delivered the remainder.

One of my boxes that contained an antique jewelry box (with a lot of my jewelry in it) looked like it had been opened. The jewelry box inside was smashed, and three of my necklaces are missing. One natural pearl, one gold and diamond heart (both sent from my Oma in Germany), and one heart of silver and gold (given to me by… Continue reading What should I do if the moving company people have stolen some of my things?

Polymer clay (jewelry box) questions?

I’m planning to make a tiny jewelry box for a school project. So I’ve decided to make it with polymer clay, I’ve already bought the materials though I’m not sure if they’re the ones I should be using to achieve the design for my jewelry box.
My planned design is highly detailed with a lot of ornaments and embossed decoration on..

Something like these styles..

Christmas gift for my boyfriend's dad?

So I need to find a Christmas gift for my boyfriends dad. His parents both work from home so they travel almost every weekend. They’re both into antiques, so I found an antique jewelry box for his mom, and I’m going to see if I can find some earrings that she might like to put in the jewelry box. I’m stuck on his dad though. He plays tennis, and he runs a tennis team, but he recently blew out his knee so he can’t play tennis right now (if ever again….) I’m not sure if its insensitive to get him… Continue reading Christmas gift for my boyfriend's dad?

Old Vintage/Antique ring question? (Mostly about the metal used in it)?

While cleaning out my grams apartment, I found a ring, that was hidden in a jewelry box in paper.(She was put into a nursing home, and I’m supposed to get all her old jewelry) I was given the box no one knowing what was in it. It looked similar to this: http://www.jewelryexpert.com/catalog/graphics/Antique-Diamond-Ring-5.gif

The metal on it though was tarnished severly. The picture is almost an exact match. The only thing is the band was almost black in color and tarnished. Can white gold tarnish that bad if it is not taken care of for years? (All her other wedding… Continue reading Old Vintage/Antique ring question? (Mostly about the metal used in it)?
