I too have a Nickel allergy! So I have made sure that everything I use in my jewelry is nickel free. I wear my own work everyday, and I can say with certainty that both the wire and necklace chains I use are absolutely nickel-free.

Each pendent comes with an 18 inch long 2mm thick chain necklace. Depending on the piece, the chain will either be silver or gold plated, with some of the newer pieces being stainless steel. Each necklace is guaranteed nickel free! 

*For custom orders I can also adjust the length of chain from 16 to 36 inches.

Rest assured your gift will NOT be wrapped in an Amazon style gift bag with one lonely piece of tissue paper stuffed inside! I will personally wrap your gift with the utmost care, using seasonally appropriate wrapping paper and color coordinated curled ribbon.  I enjoy wrapping presents and making them into beautiful packages. It seemed only logical to offer it as an Add-On service. 

*Visit my Photo Gallery page to see an example of my gift wrapping.

Yes! I love creating custom pieces for my customers! You can check out the Naked Stones page to see if there is a gemstone you would like me to wrap. If you don't see one you like or If you are looking for a specific gemstone, feel free to email me.  I have hundreds of unwrapped stones, I may very well have what you are looking for! 

I currently do not have a physical store front. This will be changing soon as I will be displaying many of my pieces once again as soon as my new workplace is established. Look for me and my display at Soulful Awakening Massage & Wellness in the very near future!

Yes! So far I have stayed regionally and only done a handful of events in my area. But as it gets closer to the holiday season I expect to be participating in many more!

   Over the course of the last couple years my thoughts and feelings towards the validity of the metaphysical properties of stones and crystals has evolved. 

     To be honest, I used to be flat out nonbeliever. I thought it was all made up nonsense. Oh I still loved rocks and crystals, I just loved them because they were pretty, not because I believed in any special properties of them. Yet I sit here now, compelled to type something up for my website about just that thing. There have been a number of events in my life over the last couple years that has lead me to question many things, one of which is the metaphysical realm. I can no longer call myself a straight "nonbeliever". Yet I hesitate to say that I am fully converted.  

    At this point, I can not call myself an expert by any means. I do not claim to know much about the properties of each stone I wrap. Yet I can no longer deny that there IS something there, something that can not just be ignored or explained away. There is a sort of energy or vibration to the natural substances that I work with that I feel in a very basal sense. I can't explain it in full, nor do I think it needs to be explained. I think it is simply meant to be felt. 

    If you were to ask me which stone is good for arthritis, or which one is best for anxiety, I wouldn't be able to tell you.  I really don't think that I, nor anyone, should be recommending specific stones for specific purposes. I have a feeling that it's all much more complicated than that. I think it is a personal choice. I believe that the right stone for one person may not be the right stone for another. I believe how you connect with the energies of the earth, and by extension the materials of the earth, i.e. gemstones, is highly individual. It is intimate, and in a way, sacred and spiritual. 

     I believe that whatever a piece means to an individual is what it means. Whether that sodalite necklace is a talisman to help an individual communicate better or it's just a pretty stone pendant, all depends on the individual wearing it. What they believe and how it makes them feel is what is right, and neither scenario is wrong.
