It’s rare that i actually do a post about my beliefs or faith. Right now, however, i feel the need to do so. I’m pagan. I believe in magick. I’m a witch. I also believe in faeries and the Fae. I believe that there needs to be balance, that it takes a male and female to create life.  Lately, I’ve been working jewelry. I started with wire wrapped pendants (which started because i wanted a gemstone on top of my staff), then expanded out to necklaces, earrings, rings, and bracelets – all wire wrapped.

Every single piece is cleansed, charged, and charmed with basic intent. Usually with the most common ‘wants’ – love, health, happiness, and prosperity.  All the jewelry I’ve made I’ve gotten such wonderful and awesome feedback from the people who’ve purchased something.

It was my goal for a long while to have 2-3 new pieces in the store a day. For a while this was great, it built up my stock again, quite quickly. Unfortunately for me, because I invest so much in each piece, I was getting more and more drained. So I had to step back from creating to recharge. Fortunately for me, this was just in time with Mercury Retrograde. I’ve slowed down, and taken some time. Even did a few sketches, with color. That has now been put somewhat on hold as I was doing them as a graphic design thing for another business.

I may continue to do some ‘fan art’ as I find it quite amusing and very fun, if not frustrating at times. Anyway.

I’ve moved forward with jewelry design again. Today I got a good handful of gemstones in the mail, that i ordered last week. I also purchased some lamp work glass beads from a local artist, and will be designing with them too.

You can see & purchase some of this unique jewelry from my webstore at http://www.beyondthewillows.com if you’re interested in selling online, I have been working out consignment details.
