A new obsession is born! Working with glass has always been a passion. Check out my new work!

January's birthstone: Garnet

Garnet is a lovely choice for any month, but those born in January get to call it their own...

Garnet is a powerfully energizing and regenerating stone. It revitalizes, purifies, and balances energy, bringing serenity or passion as appropriate.

That said, Here's my most recent necklace:

Garnet and Opalite (Opalite is a man made stone) 2 strand necklace.

Traveling!

It has been a long time since I have written anything here... I've been traveling this year. Lets start from the beginning of the year, I came back from Peru on January 1st 2008.

I brought back some wonderful beads from Peru. Primarily Serpentine, some Cryscolla (Peruvian Turquoise) as well as stones I just picked up off the ground.

Here is a picture of the beads I bought at the base of Machu Picchu:



I'll be turning them into necklaces soon.

Peace!
