GG's Exclusives Spring In The Lilly Garden Polymer Clay Art Bead Bracelet


Beautiful Sterling Silver wireworked link bracelet, with many, many drops of Artisan Crafted Polymer Clay Art Beads I have created just for this bracelet, along with Cultured Freshwater Pearls, Czech Glass beads, Clear Quartz Crystal gemstone beads, Sterling Silver beads and bead caps and finished with a Bali Sterling Silver Toggle Clasp. This is a fantastic bracelet with beautiful spring colors, peach, yellow, aqua, off white. With Lilly flower beads, and "bumpy" beads in matching colors, and lovely swirled accent beads with all the colors to match, all in wonderful Polymer Clay and all hand-crafted by myself. While this bracelet looks extremely heavy, it is actually very light for all the bead drops on it. This will surely be a conversation piece and will get you LOTS of attention! A gorgeous piece with beautiful beads and fantastic colors!

Bracelet Length: 8" (this is a very "chunky" bracelet and will fit much smaller than a traditional 8" bracelet)


Metaphysical Lore:


Lillies are symbolic of purity and joy, Day Lillies correlate to Sun energies, while other varieties are more in tune with the energy of the Moon and the element of Water. They come in a myriad of colors and sizes, and are often quite fragrant. Because the are recognized as a symbol of purity, they are also a flower of the Maiden Aspect of the Goddess.

Clear Quartz Crystal is by far and away one of the most useful stones of all. It is a powerful all purpose stone, possessing both the ability to send energy as well as receive. It is a great stone for tapping into the powers and energies of the universe, bringing the energies of the universe into oneself. It is superb at healing, and is great for aligning all the human energies with those of the universe. Clear Quartz works well with all the Chakras. Clear Quartz, when used in combination with any other stone, amplifies its energies and increases it's healing powers. Ancient peoples were convinced that Clear Quartz was a form of ice because of the way it crystalized and the clearness of the stones.

Pearls are wonderful gems, not really stones, but organic in nature, are products of oysters and are usually cultured, that is, the oyster is implanted with a foreign object for the Pearl to grow around and then later cultivated when they reach the size desired. They come in many different natural colors and are also dyed or color inhanced. They are associated with the elements of water and spirit. They emit warm, gentle loving energies, and help to encourage compassion. They bring the loving energy of the sea to the wearer. They bring Goddess energies to whatever they are connected to.

Silver is a wonderful metal for use with gemstones, it can take on and absorb the properties and energies of the gemstones it is in contact with and act as a conductor for those energies for the wearer. Silver is associated with the element of Water and directly correlates with the energies of the Goddess and the moon. It is also a metal to aid in drawing prosperity. To increase the properties and energies of silver, expose it to the light of the moon, especially the full moon.

GG's Exclusives Fabulous Flower Garden 'N Gems Bracelet


Wow! LOTS of great Hand-crafted Polymer Clay Art beads I created just for this bracelet. Roses and Lillies, and the bracelet itself is created with wireworked links of lampwork styled polymer clay beads to match the flower beads. Done in purples, lavender, periwinkle and red, with Amethyst, Blue Lace Agate and faceted Clear Quartz Crystal gemstone beads, along with multiple colors of Swarovski Austrian Crystal beads, with lots of Sterling Silver beads and bead caps, lots of wireworked designs at the ends of the drops, and the bracelet is finished with a Sterling Silver Lobster Claw clasp and the other end has wireworked links with Swarovski Austrian Crystal beads and Czech Glass bead links that allow this bracelet adjustable sizing. While this bracelet is LOADED with bead drops, it is exceptionally lightweight. Beautiful and will DEFINITELY be a conversation piece! Fun and gorgeous piece to wear!

Length Of Bracelet: 7" - 8 1/4" (this is a "chunky" bracelet and will fit smaller than a beaded or chain bracelet of the same length)

Metaphysical Lore:

Roses have meant many things in folk lore. Often associated with Aphrodite, and love. The different colors of roses are said to mean different things, but the most familiar of course is red roses with love and passion. The story goes that Aphrodite pricked her finger on a thorn and her blood turned the flower red, and has since been associated with love and passion, both the color and the flower. Regardless, they are quite beautiful, and who doesn't love their fragrance? And EVERYONE should learn to "stop and smell the roses" from time to time!

Lillies are symbolic of purity and joy, Day Lillies correlate to Sun energies, while other varieties are more in tune with the energy of the Moon and the element of Water. They come in a myriad of colors and sizes, and are often quite fragrant. Because the are recognized as a symbol of purity, they are also a flower of the Maiden Aspect of the Goddess.

Amethyst is a stone that has been used for centuries for its healing and magickal powers. It has wonderfully loving energies, providing one with great contentment. Just holding Amethyst can reduce stress and bring a calming nature to the bearer. It provides strength, stability, and perfect peace. It balances energies of the physical, emotional and intellectual bodes, and brings a more open connection between the earth plane and those of the other worlds. It is great for assisting one in developing their intuitive abilities and to assist in meditation. It has been used for centuries to help one rid themselves of physical addictions. Amethyst can also help one to rid themselves of negativity. Hold a piece of Amethyst and envision all your hurt and pain and anger going into the stone, then throw the stone away and let the earth reclaim it. It will take all those thoughts of negativity with it leaving you more balanced and filled with positive energies.

Blue Lace Agate is a gorgeous stone, mostly translucent, it has a lovely light blue-violet color with white lacy banding, it is a beautiful color. It is an excellent stone to use for inner attunement. It is used for the Crown, throat, Heart and Third-eye Chakras, and when it activates these chakras it assists in reaching a high-frequency state of consciousness.

GG's Exclusives Polymer Clay Daisy Art Bead Earrings

Beautiful Sterling Silver Dangle Earrings with pink polymer clay art beads, with "daisies" , in Sterling Silver Wireworked links with Bali Sterling Silver bead caps, Sterling Silver accent beads, and drops with Swarovski Austrian Crystal beads and Sterling Silver Wireworked faceted Rose Quartz gemstone briolettes. These great little earrings dangle from hand-crafted/hammered Sterling Silver Ear Wires (20 gauge Sterling Silver Wire). So cute!!!

Earrings Length: 2"


Metaphysical Lore:


Daisies represent the Maiden Goddess Aspect, and have long been used to foretell a young maiden if a particular suitor is the person they will marry! By holding a daisy and plucking the petals and saying "He loves me, he loves me not" until a single petal is left, will tell her marital future! Not surprisingly, Daisies are associated with Venus. They correspond with the element of water. Said to be favored by the Fae, having daisies in your garden are sure to encourage the Fae to dwell there!


Rose Quartz, another stone of the Quartz family, is full of warm loving energies. It is a delicate pink color, and is often dyed to enhance its pale pink color. The energies it has also feel very soft and delicate. It provides very gentle loving energies, and brings peace and calm to the wearer. It provides energy for emotional healing. Aids one during periods of loss and stress. It takes away fear, resentment and anger in the wearer and provides one with higher esteem and self-confidence.


Silver is a wonderful metal for use with gemstones, it can take on and absorb the properties and energies of the gemstones it is in contact with and act as a conductor for those energies for the wearer. Silver is associated with the element of Water and directly correlates with the energies of the Goddess and the moon. It is also a metal to aid in drawing prosperity.

GG's Exclusives Keys To Your Ear Polymer Clay Art Bead Earrings


Lovely Artisan Crafted Polymer Clay Art beads I created in beautiful browns, golds, orange and yellows, wireworked on Brass Wire with Gold Filled Ear Wires, and Gold-plate over Bronze Key charms with Swarovski Austrian Crystal dangles wireworked on Brass wire. Really cute earrings, lots of sparkle and great earth-tone colors.

Earrings Length: 3"

Metaphysical Lore:

Brass is a metal that corresponds with the element of fire,and is highly protective in nature. It has often been used as a substitute for gold in magickal spells, although it doesn't contain all the magickal attributes that gold carries, it is good to use for money drawing and prosperity spells. It also has great healing properties.

Gold is a warm energy metal, with energies correlating to the Sun and the male aspect. Gold is great for prosperity, and abundance. Great for working with God energies.


Bronze was highly prized by the ancient Celts, and much of their jewelry, tools, and decorative arts were rendered in bronze. Bronze is considered a protective metal, and is used to shield the bearer from harmful energies and to reflect negative energy. "Bronze was first developed about 4800 B.C. in Egypt where a metalworker found that by mixing tin with copper he could make a harder more durable alloy which we know today as Bronze". (Portions taken from "The Science and Romance of Precious Stones, Noble Metals and Organic Wonders", used with permission by author Barbara Nelson, G.G.) The ancient Chinese treasured Bronze over Gold, for they believed that Bronze could connect the living with those in the afterlife.

Metaphysical Lore:


Copper is a great metal for use with gemstones. Because of it's conductivity, it can assist in helping the energy transfer from stones to the wearer, which is a great benefit for healing purposes. It also has great healing properties of it's own, and has been used for centuries for treating arthritis, and other joint related ailments. It helps to increase ones initiative, and independence, as well as diplomacy.
