I have listed some new beaded pet collar/necklaces in my ArtFire Studio!! I introduce the The Pawshly Pet Beaded Jewelry Collection. My three little chihuahuas modeled them for me, they are now very hard to deal with, and are demanding steak and prime rib and are quite the divas! Well, except for Amigo, he's too busy fighting off the girls! Here are their pictures and be sure to check out their modeling debut on ArtFire!
Don't forget to check out the Pet/Familiar Collar Charms here! The collars/necklaces have room for more charms to be attached!
Beautiful beaded bracelet, with gorgeous rich Green Amazonite, with white Cultured Freshwater Pearls, and a lovely Indian made Lampwork Glass oval bead. Lots of Sterling Silver beads, bead caps and looped beading wire ends with a hand-crafted wire clasp I created from 20 gauge wire. Really pretty, feminine bracelet, great for the office or an evening out, it is perfect anywhere!
Bracelet Length: 7 3/8" Focal Bead: 20mm x 13mm
Metaphysical Lore:
Amazonite is a wonderful stone, a beautiful aqua shade, that comes in light and dark varieties. It has warm, loving energies, that brings about a very peaceful feeling. It is a stone great for aiding one with their intuition and psychic abilities. It is soothing and calming. This is one of my favorite 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.
Gorgeous wrap collar I have created with many drops of Czech glass flower and leaf beads, wireworked with Swarovski Austrian Crystal beads, faceted Clear Quartz Crystal, faceted Czech glass, glass seed beads, twisted glass bugle beads, Sterling Silver Bali beads and bead caps. The centerpiece has a gemstone heart dyed pink, wirewrapped with Sterling Silver wire. This is all strung on stainless steel memory wire, and is finished with silver plated end balls. Wonderful piece, great colors and these are super comfortable to wear! Collar length: 19", and should fit most necks, it will "wrap" around until it fits properly
Center Drop: 2 3/4"
Metaphysical Lore:
Hearts are a wonderful symbol, used for centuries to symbolize love and affection. Often paired with other symbols, like cupid, thistles, hands, they are used to show and symbolize love for someone or something, and are even used as protection symbols, as in the Scottish Lukenbooth. Wonderful symbol!
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.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.

I am a jewelry/bead artisan and designer and my studio is in Batavia, Ohio. I create unique one of a kind jewelry pieces using a variety of components and materials, but mostly sterling silver, copper, brass, bronze, gemstone beads, Swarovski Austrian crystals, Czech glass and polymer clay art beads I create.
I design a lot of spiritual jewelry, mostly pagan, wiccan, goddess, celtic and fantasy themes. It reflects my beliefs and the inner me! I enjoy creating wearable art that nurtures the Body, the Mind AND the Spirit! I also create items purely for fun as well, what ever my mood is and where ever my muses take me is what tends to come out in my art! I have sold on some of the largest online web stores and auction sites, I've sold locally and all over the world, in juried shows and in art fairs and now I'm offering my items here, from my own site, and I have recently opened a "studio" on ArtFire.
