klaudia-me asked: I absolutely love your tumblr! I think that minerals are way too much better than diamonds :)

So crazy you said that! Just 15 minutes ago I met some of my boyfriend’s friends and one of them was saying how he needs to give me a diamond soon. I responded by saying how I wouldn’t even want a diamond. I’d rather have a mineral in its natural form. :) :) :)

For those inquiring about cleaning minerals,

archcarrier-deactivated20121023 asked: My knowledge about minerals is extremely limited, but I really enjoy your blog. So many gorgeous pictures to look at.

My knowledge is pretty limited too, actually. I’m getting pretty good at identifying them, however I don’t know all the “science” behind it! Thank you so much.
