Inspirational Jewelry and Gifts
Everyday is an adventure here at my little house, in the middle of 4 acres of woods, outside the city of Atlanta. You never know what wildlife will wander through the yard: deer, coyotes, frogs, creepy-crawlies, or even the neighbor’s cow! My black-thumb is gradually turning a very, very dark shade of green.
After spending my first 40 years growing up in the suburbs of Dallas and living and working as an artist in big cities on both the East and West Coasts, I find myself lucky enough to wake up every morning to the sound of chirping birds and filtered sunlight shining through the trees. When I’m not creating stuff for my shop, I spend my afternoons tending to the never-ending yard work that I enjoy so much.
My love of nature extends beyond just flora and fauna… I LOVE ROCKS! For almost the past decade, I’ve gathered quite a collection of crystals, gemstones, and rocks. I’ve taught myself some of the finer Lapidary Arts (a fancy term for polishing rocks) and have planned many a road-trip around “rockhounding” detours.
I’m also fascinated with the idea of the metaphysical side of gemstone, color & aroma-therapies. I believe that the energy that surrounds us influences our emotions. If you surround yourself with toxic people or energy, it can easily become contagious. Recognizing these influences is the first step to combating them. I think we all have the ability to define our own State-of-Mind.
Every item in my shop is assigned to 2 of 9 action-motivated words: Believe, Comfort, Endure, Enjoy, Love, Prevail, Protect, Release, or Succeed. My goal is not to “heal” you through the use of crystals, but to maybe help you recognize an aspect of your life that may need some inspiration, then to motivate you to take action all on your own!
