Just a girl making jewelry… and missing her best friend.
I’ve always had a love (borderline obsession) for crystals and gemstones. My collection is constantly growing, and I have so many favorites.. but this story begins with 2 very special pieces of Mookaite…
I was buying stones to make a crystal grid for a very specific purpose.. And when I discussed it with the shop owner, she told me I absolutely needed Mookaite. This Australian Jasper, a stone that bestows strength, aides in willingness to accept change and knowing the right decision to take, is also a wonderful stone to connect and communicate with animals.
So, on August 21st 2017, when it was time for me to say goodbye to my heart and soul, I had a Mookaite stone in each hand as I held my dog’s face and told him goodbye. One stone now rests in his ashes, and the other I wear next to my heart.
I learned to wire wrap just so I could wear my stone..and ended up finding both a new passion and a therapeutic way to cope with the grief. Now I wrap crystals almost every day..and I weave the wires together with a smile on my face (and sometimes tears in my eyes) as I think about my best friend, my soulmate, my other half.. my everlasting friend, Chance.
Thank you for inspiring me, baby bear. I’ll see you on the rainbow bridge.
