Hestia - copper bangle bracelet

Hestia is the Greek goddess of the hearth and home. She presides over all domestic life. She represents security and happiness. She is a virgin-goddess and the gentlest, kindest and mildest of all the Olympian Gods. She had no throne but every hearth on Earth is her altar.



This 18 gauge coiled copper wire bangle, my ode to Hestia, has delicate copper wire vines, yellow polymer clay rose buds and jade beads.

Approximately 7 1/2 inches (fits a 6-7 inch wrist well).

An exclusive, unique piece of art from me to you, as always.

The jade has been charged with positive Reiki energy to enhance its mystical properties.

Escape from Illusion Necklace

The Dragonfly symbolizes going past self-created illusions that limit our growth. Their many splendid colors cause them to be associated with color mysticism and the power of light. They remind us that we are beings of light and can harness this power of light reflection in any way we choose.

Size of focal piece:-
Length (including dangles) - 3 3/4 inches (98 mm)
Width (at widest point) - approx 2 inches (52 mm)

Necklace size:- Adjustable (the black chord can be slipped over the head and the small blue glass bead can be moved up and down the chord to adjust the length of the necklace around your neck).

Froggies swarm Tribal Route

I'm back in touch with the good froggies at Tribal Route and they recently asked me to make them a bunch of little froggies to add to their family. Made 20+ frogs in 2 days (dunno how I managed that!) and sent them off, but not before saving a couple for myself :)
If you live in Mumbai, visit their beautiful cottage style store at Versova.

Reiki Charged Gemstone Pendants

It all started with me running an errand for my mum. She wanted me to visit my gemstone/crystal guy and grab a couple of specific healing/protective crystals for my dad and sis. I always dread going to the guy... because if I do I end up blowing a LOT of cash in his store!!! Well this time I decided that I would walk in, pick up only what she asked for and walk out. And just to be safe, I'd carry only a little bit of cash. Can't possible spend what I don't have right? Ha! That's what I thought!!

Well, to cut a long story short, I came back home with a mother load of gemstone beads and cabs... hey what can a girl do if gorgeous beadies are offered to her at great prices??? Don't ask me how I managed to fish out the money for everything =oP

Anyways, here is the outcome of that shopping binge :)

I embedded the gemstone cabochons in polymer clay and created pendants. As always, I have charged each pendant with Reiki to enhance the metaphysical properties of the crystals used.

Love Knot - Rose Quartz




Moon River - Lapis Lapiz and Moonstone





Glimpse Into The Past - Labradorite





Mirror Of The Soul - Aventurine





Flecks Of Clarity - Rutilated Quartz

Tarot Jewelry - Gemstones and Crystals

I have started a new line of Reiki energized crystal jewelry. With wire-work (my latest passion) in the mix, I having a really hard time parting with these!! :)
Wondering what stone is right for you? Well I'm no astrologer but I am a Tarot Reader :D
So this is how it works, I do a reading for you and based on the reading I recommend the crystal which carries the energy you need at the present point in your life. Then I flash my gorgeous goodies (umm I meant the jewelry here) in front of you and you decide if you want any of them.
If I haven't made anything with that stone yet, then I make it for you if you choose.
Of course, you can skip the Tarot bit and just pick the jewelry you like... just because you like it :)

Here are some of my wire and stone creations (some old some new):
