Midnight Sun...

I first read the term 'midnight sun' when I started in on the Twilight series and Stephenie Meyer's website had that book on it, the leak of it already having happened and the uproar died down.  What is the midnight sun, I thought to myself?  To me, the midnight sun is a full moon, that is so bright in the sky it lights up the world.  I don't know if that's what it is to anyone else.  When I've seen moonstone, with it's brilliant blue flashes, this reminds me of the midnight sun, or that brightest of full moons.  So that is what I named this necklace...

I am terrible at photographing moonstone and translating the blue flash of the stone into pictures.
Besides the Stephenie Meyer novel, I love the song by The Killers, Dustland Fairytale.  In that song there are gorgeous lyrics, one part in particular that I love -


Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one 
In the of the cadence in the young mans eyes
And were the dreams all hide.

These moonstones are gorgeous and let me tell you - I stumbled onto this cut a couple of months ago and picked up a half strand.  I fell in love, and tried to get my hands on more.  None of my suppliers could find them.  Finally, one came through and got me another strand.  But that's all she can find right now, so until these little babies run out, I hope you like these midnight suns :)
