Onyx Heart Earrings-Green Turquoise
"And now for something completely different..."
So, WOW! These are just for fun, and are another great example of how the creative process is unusual in it's unfolding. The carved Buri seed cube beads were in my "to get rid of" pile. They've been with me a number of years and never quite found a home in any creation. Until now.
These 2" earrings are composed of the Buri cubes, Onyx hearts, dyed Turquoise discs, and sterling silver beads. The earwires are nickel-free stainless steel to accomodate possible allergy issues.
A coordinating bracelet is awaiting it's clasp and will be posted soon.

As a child, the highlight of my summers was gathering stones, leaves, and pieces of driftwood in the mountains and streams of Southern Colorado. The mountains were ripe with trophies to gather and admire. The mountains were magical in their beauty and complete "otherness." A young girl from South Texas truly learned to worship God near the headwaters of the Rio Grande River.
As a college student, geology was my favorite class. Although not the scientific type, I was fascinated by the forces of nature at play in the Earth and by God's hand in creation.
As an adult, I pursued the study of theology, a career in ministry, and growing a family. The man I married learned to love the mountains too. We continue the tradition of summer excursions to the mountains. Every trip feels like a pilgrimage, always reconnecting me to my love of the earth and it's wonders.
A few years ago, I was given an Anglican Rosary. I discovered that the focus of praying with beads is very helpful to me. An overwhelming need to be creative spurred my desire to "play with beads" leading me to create my first Anglican Rosary. I couldn't bear the thought of it being lovely and meant to be kept in a pouch or pocket. It seemed destined to need a clasp to be worn. I love the idea of wearing prayer; of wearing a tangible reminder to be at prayer. So Gracefull Things was born.
