Right before Christmas, my daughter informed me she had broken her carnelian bracelet. She is always wearing a single strand, simple, small carnelian bracelet. Carnelian and bloodstone are her favorite. I didn't have any carnelian, so I went to my trusted Firemountain Gems and started poking around. They had a great sale of a 'grab bag' bead mix of agate/carnelian strands. So I bit!
How was I going to make a bracelet for Leigh for Christmas, if I didn't know what I was getting. Not knowing was part of the fun, and added a challenge to the creative process. While this is not the actual bracelet I made for her, I had to make another one similar for my shop :)
Do you like a creative challenge? I would love to hear about some of yours!
And as always, Be peaceful, Be kind.
Remember to explore, create, dream, imagine and discover!
All of my jewelry creations are based on the metaphysical properties of the stones or the colors that are incorporated. Jewelry should be a window to our soul, a protector of our emotions and a companion to our spirit. All of my other creations come directly from my heart in hopes they touch yours as well. Celebrate yourself with healing jewelry, and other gift ideas made with love!
