Guest Author - Susan DorlingSusan's Passion for Jewelry (SPJ)at www.susanspassionforjewelry.com is a celebration of wearable art and the people who create it. It is a new and growing website that aspires to become a favorite jewelry shopping resource and buying guide for jewelry lovers around the world in the near future. Originally created to serve as a reference companion for my BellaOnline articles, my collection of memos and ideas over the last couple of years has formed the basic foundation of SPJ. For over 200 beautiful gift ideas this holiday season, I invite you to check out the wonderful designers in our Designers Showcase and International Jewelry Designers Directory.
I am involved with jewelry in some fashion every day. Whether I am stringing beads, looking for designers to write articles about or a new addition to my gemstone collection, I regularly search the Internet to find information about jewelry and gemstones. I try to write at least two new articles every week to share with my visitors at BellaOnline, and will be writing articles exclusively for SPJ as well.

From its historical importance in cultures throughout the world to the ultimate personal adornment and means of self-expression, jewelry is forever fascinating. With its vast diversity, there seems always to be something new and exciting to learn about it. SPJ's growing Learning Center features in-depth information about gemstones and other jewelry materials, jewelry buying guides, and lots of great articles from my own BellaOnline portfolio and from other jewelry and gemstone experts.
