We have many traditions that are celebrated in current times around the world. One of the most popular i

Thank you to everyone who stopped by my first Bi-monthly Moon Sale last week. I hope your purchases bring you much empowerment in the weeks and months to come! Yesterday was the New Moon we were planning for. Time to set those intentions for what we want to grow and bring into our lives!

It is always a whirlwind of preparations and endless bead making, that culminates in the coming together of friends from all over the country / world and the connection with the customers whom make it possible for me to do this for a living.
