Aroma & magnet Therapy

Lava stone aroma therapy bracelet we make.

Our gardens have many aromatic plants and their fragrances add to the enjoyment of our walks. Lavender is one scent that is used for its calming effects. Recently we acquired some large lava stone beads to use in making aroma therapy jewelry. You add a drop of two of an essential oil, it is absorbed by the porous stone and “therapeutic” all day long.

Some recently completed magnetic bracelets.

We get asked for magnetic jewelry and recently have had the time to make some magnetic bracelets. I had been reluctant to make them in the past, as the elastic breaks. People bring us elastic bracelets that have broken and ask us to repair them. I don’t like to do that as they never hold up long. We use a very thin and flexible, seven stranded wire that seems to be very durable for most all of our jewelry.

It has been fun to be home during this Southern Californian (mild) Winter and have time to work in the gardens and create our art. Sadly, the corona virus threat has caused some of our shows to be cancelled. Our prayers are for all those impacted by this very real problem. We trust it will be resolved soon. May your week be blessed.
