The Stone of Rainbows: Tourmaline

 I've had a love affair with rocks and minerals ever since I've been a child! Tourmaline has always been one of my favorite stones...I love all the colors, and I especially love the shape of a naturally occurring crystal. Tourmaline is said to be the stone of the rainbow. It was believed by ancient Egyptians that a rainbow passed deep through the earth when the tourmaline was forming...

                                         Orange tourmaline is thought to foster and enhance creativity

                                               Pink tourmaline is thought to promote joy and love.

     Violet tourmaline is thought to provide protection against dark forces.

Green Tourmaline is thought to promote compassion towards yourself.
I design my signature stud earrings by wrapping 6mm round tourmaline beads in sterling silver, and ending with a tiny swirl!   These stones are African Tourmaline.

My tourmaline earrings are perfect for everyday wear, or for adding a bit of color when you're wearing that little black dress!
These are my newest addition to Pixe's Treasure Chest!


Wishing you a fabulous, and peace filled day!

Today's Treasure Thursday June 17

Today's Treasure is a fun little bracelet I created using pink silver plated copper wire and Czech crackle glass beads!  This is great for the smaller wrist!  I think this little piece is great for those hot days to come,  with the cool shades of pink, green and blue! 

Concerned about the color on the wire chipping?  No worries!  I beat the heck out of the wire to test it, and with normal wear, should continue to look great!

Today's Treasure! Tuesday June 8

Welcome to Today's Treasure!  Every day I offer one special Treasure from my Etsy Shop at a special price!

Today's Treasure is one of my favorites, and was created in honor of my Grammy, who I feel is always watching over my shoulder.

Grammy taught me many life lessons.  I can remember being in high school, and she would she tell me "Michele, learn to depend on yourself.  You cannot expect to rely on anyone but yourself."  She taught me that it was okay to follow the beat of your own drum...For me, these were  the most important lessons she taught me! 

We also had some really fun times...we had our own special song that we made up, and would always sing it...On Saturdays we would watch old horror movies, and she would give me a small glass of beer!  I used to love that!

I also followed  Grammy's footsteps in my career choice by becoming an R.N.

So why is this necklace so special to me?  My favorite room in my Grammy's house was the kitchen, which was pink and green!  I always thought it was bold! 

The Green Aventurine and Pink Lepidolite Necklace is a beautifully bold necklace that would make a great addition to your collection!  The colors are bold, the beads are bold, and would be fantastic with your summer wardrobe!  Get this fabulous necklace at the best price of year today only!

Thanks for dropping by!

Wishing you a wonderful and peace filled day!
