Creating something...

I've made jewelry for as long as I can remember. I started young with those big plastic beads. In fact, I still have a couple of necklaces. As I got older (and had more money), I started working with semi-precious stones. They aren't cheap to make, but I love how pretty they are. The New Age part of me shines through as well, because you can use stones for healing as well. (Whether the stones actually work, or it's more mind over matter, I'm not quite sure. ;))

For awhile now I've been saying I should open an Etsy shop and sell some things.  Two things are holding me back, (one) I have little time to make pieces and (two) what if no one buys anything?

Whether or not I actually start a shop, I will still make jewelry because nothing makes me happier than wearing something that I created!

Chakra earrings
Red jasper, carnelian, citrine, malachite,
turquoise, lapis lazuli and amethyst

Chakra bracelet with carnelian,
as well as amethyst, lapis lazuli, turquoise, aventurine, citrine, and garnet chips

Carnelian's properties include: Protects the user from all negative emotions. Wonderful protective energy over rage, resentment, bad tempers, and anger in self and from others.   It helps one banish sorrow or depression.  Grounds energy and attention into the present. Healing for kidneys, which is one of the reasons I wear it.

Chakra jewelry helps to realign and balance the energy fields of each specific chakra, aligning and harmonizing mind, body and soul. Each color represents a specific part of the body and soul.


Rose quartz necklace

Rose quartz brings peacefulness and harmony to the wearer.
It helps balance emotions and heal emotional wounds and traumas,
even grief, bringing peace and calm.

Book Review...and a Giveaway!!!

I was lucky enough to win an ARC of When the Rogue Returns  from Sabrina Jeffries herself! I couldn't wait to read it.  After reading the first book in The Duke's Men series, What the Duke Desires , I was excited to see that this next book was about Victor Cale. In  When the Rogue Returns , Victor Cale is headed to Scotland to investigate a woman, Sofie Franke.  He has his suspicions that this woman is actually Isabella, his wife who disappeared on him ten years before.  He has spent the last decade searching to bring her to justice after she stole the royal jewels and left him to behind to deal with the authorities.  Isabella Cale, now known as Sofie Franke, has built a new life for herself and her ten-year old daughter after her husband ran off with the royal jewels. Are you intrigued yet? Victor and Isa's first meeting was great! Both blame the other for the missing jewels, and both are greatly suspicious of the other's motives.  Despite their renewed feel

Enjoy the little things...

The music filled my head as I drove my car along the winding river road on that dark and snowy night.  I had just left my grandpa's wake and was headed home... alone.....  My husband had the stomach flu, we had moved into our new house the day before my grandpa passed, and I was 5 1/2 months pregnant.  The baby boy inside me kicked along with the song, as I cried and listened to the words.

Don't live too fast, Troubles will come and they will pass. Go find a woman and you'll find love, And don't forget son, There is someone up above. I've always found comfort in songs... the words of the artists resonating with me through even my darkest times. Lynyrd Skynyrd's Simple Man is one of those songs that just happens to play on the radio at the precise moment that I need a remind

It's the most wonderful time of the year....

The countdown to Hallowe'en begins! Please note this is not the actual number of days until Hallowe'en. The picture was taken two days ago. The house is totally decorated, although I still could use a few more things ;) One of the cool new decorations I bought this year are these Halloween Pumpkin Wall Decals from Kohls.  I love them!  My structured, OCD self feels the mantle is too cluttered, but the spooky side of me just doesn't care. ;) How do you decorate for Hallowe'en?
