The benefits of a long chain necklace

wearing colorful striped sweater long silver chain necklace
A simple long chain necklace can't be beat. My Chrissie
necklace is a big size bead ball chain necklace with a
cute ladder design. A necklace like this is great when you
aren't sure what kind of necklace works best. You can
wear with a busy printed top or sweater and it won't compete.
Or wear with solid colors for a cool modern look. Its a fun to
touch touch that chain while wearing too! This long size means
its practically a one size fits all!

       things. Like cheery or calm or pretty. If this blue is your color
       and calling you, youo might want to answer!

Green on green with plants & a necklace

 

green gemstone stick necklace and green plants

Shades of green in a necklace or plants is always soothing
and relaxing. In spiritual terms, the color green implies
beginnings, new growth, vibrant health, and other ideas
connected with life, rebirth, and renewal.
 I get that. I can even feel that.

My gemstone stick necklace has two gorgeous shades of green.
The top stone is more of a yellow green. The botton gemstone strick
feels more like a teal blue-green color. These colors are refreeshing
and tranquil and strongly associated with nature, grass, the forest.

A meaningful gold gemstone necklace

gold chain aquamarine gemstone necklace with charm displayed

I designed this necklace for my daughters 30th birthday!
She was born in March so I included a big aquamarine
birthstone pendant. When You are a jewelry designer
you give a lot of jewelry gifts! I love being able to do that.

See that round gold charm? I stamped 3 circles that each
represent a decade around the Sun.  Thus her 30th. If
you are a fan of mixed chain like I am then you'll this!
One of the benefits is that you can attach the clasp 
at various places on the larger link chain. This will
change the style depending on how high or low you
choose to clasp. Handy dandy!

If you need a gift for a special birthday necklace shoot me a
message. I would be happy to recreate this in silver or gold.
And the numer of decades around the Sun is all up to you.

Pretty blue Swarovski crystal Artisan earrings

 

long gold blue crystal hoop earrings
A splash of pretty and a splash of feminine earrings right here!


Artisan means these earrings have been crafted and made by
my own two hands. Not made by machines or factory workers.
You can see the carefull hammered marks on the gold
elipse hoops. The blue crystals are Swrovski. If you didn't know,
Swarovski is the cadiallac of crystals. They have the
highes degree of precision cuts. Exquisite sparkle.

Below that chain of wired crystals are little gold daggers
to balance it all out. I think it would fun to make these
in a variety of colors.

art chimes are just fun! Playful! So when you want to

of oyster shells. Those chimes would also be very
cute earrings.

An Artisan token necklace that includes a big touchstone

gold token clear gemstone necklace on female
For you, an Artisan style necklace that comes with an
authentic old coin plus it includes big wonderful touch stone!

What is a touch stone you ask? Some call it a 'Worry' stone.
Personally I don't like giving worry such prominence here.
I have a few other ideas about it!
But lets start with the stone itself.
Basically its a big smooth stone. The size and smoothness
allows for your fingers to comfortably touch this stone.

The physical touching can bring some anxiety relief.
Something to do with your fingers.
Give that excess energy a place to go!
Its also a relaxing motion. If you're relaxed then
why not add some good juju to it all?! Dream a little dream.
Send out joy, love and hope. or personal intentions. Reminders.
Imagine if..
The stone belongs to you, so you can choose what is most 
comfortable and needed in your life.
I hope this makes sense to you.
Now you know a little bit more about the meaning and benefit of
having a touchstone necklace!
