Sapphire


Lucky you September babies! Sapphire is the birthstone this month! The stone’s brilliance, beauty, and durability makes it the perfect alternative engagement ring. In fact, ancients believed that the Ten Commandments were written on a sapphire tablet, and marriage partners believed its luster was indicative of faithfulness within the union. Though sapphires are traditionally a magnificent deep blue, this gem is available in every color except for red. With careful cleaning and caution against sharp blows, your Sapphire is sure to last many lifetimes

PLACES TO GO : Rock Hunt

 
Have you spotted any painted rocks around Raleigh and wondered what they’re for? 919 Rocks is a fun new outdoor trend moving across the Triangle. If you want to get involved, the concept is easy! Paint a rock, hide a rock, and spread the joy of art and community for everyone. When you find a rock you can either keep it or hide it again for someone else to find! Some rocks act like coupons when you bring them to the store that hid them. We’ve spotted rocks everywhere from parks to cemeteries and hospitals, so keep your eyes peeled and happy hunting!
