Orange is such an appealing color! It makes me always feel like getting an instant boost if I look at it. And here in the Netherlands, the color orange is a very important color. It is even our national color and this Saturday we will be holding the first Kings day. It was for lots of decades Queens day.  But since last year we have a king and we will celebrate his birthday on the 26^th of April. Even if his birthday is on the 27^th, but tradition rules and Kings day nor Queens day is ever held on a Sunday.

Amethyst is one of my favourite stones. I love the intense purple colour and I like it just as much combined with gold as with silver. If people choose this stone I always get the idea of them being a bit of a creative type, or a bit of fashionista. People that dare to be bold.
