Open your heart and soul the the Great Spirit.
All life is sacred; treat all beings with respect.
Take from the earth what is needed and nothing more.
Do what needs to be done for the good in others.
Give constant thanks to the Great Spirit for each new day.
Speak the truth, but only of the good in others.
Follow the rhythms of nature; rise and retire with the sun.
Enjoy life's journey, but leave no tracks.~

Aventurine



















~Both pieces have been sold. Please contact me for a custom order! ~


This is one of my newest pieces and one of my favorites because of the beautiful dark green aventurine and it's simplicity.
It's crafted out of solid sterling silver, which I've really come to really enjoy working with!
I think the "look" between my copper and my new silver trees is completely different.

Aventurine is excellent for attracting abundance, wealth and opportunity. Aventurine is known as the stone of chance or luck.
Since it is connected to the heart Chakra this is also another stone perfect for easing stress, anxiety,emotional pains, fear and imbalance.
It does this by dissolving the blocks that may be preset in this area.

While I was making this pendant I decide to make a matching necklace to go with it...


It took quite a while due to all the small, detailed work but I think it turned out very pretty! The heart, of course, represents this stones connected Chakra.


You can see both of these pieces, along with more pictures and details in my Etsy shop here:

Blessings to you all,

  1. I love your gemstone tree pendants...there's a lot of silver wire in those ! I know how much time it takes to make the handcrafted chain linked necklaces as I used to do wire wrapping and chain link work. It is really hard on the hands and the fingernails and so many people just don't realize or appreciate the time and the work that goes into them. If I had charged by my time nobody would have bought them as they thought the prices should be the same as something from Wally World. :(
    I always told my friends I'd make more money working as a sales associate in a mall boutique than I would making and selling my sterling wire chain link necklaces. :) Your creations are marvelous and I love your choices of stones and color combinations.
