WHAT'S HAPPENING AT DIANE'S DESIGNS!
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. We salute the courage of everyone who has dealt with this disease; you are an inspiration!
The month of October gives you a choice between two birthstones: opal and pink tourmaline. Opal’s name is thought be based on the Sanskrit word upala, meaning “precious stone.” It is composed of hydrated silicon dioxide and is mostly known as a white mineraloid with a rainbow shimmer, though it can come in a variety of colors. Pink tourmaline can vary from pink to dark red and often contains another color, most familiarly green in watermelon tourmaline. Tourmaline’s name comes from the Sinhalese word turmali, which means “a mixed color precious stone.” Stop by Diane’s Designs all through the month of October for the perfect opal or pink tourmaline gift.
