Healing Stones - Back to our Roots

Well it has been a while since I have posted and a lot has changed. One of the things is that we changed the name of our FaceBook page to WaterFront Street Art Gallery which creates an all encompassing name for what we are trying to create. 

Much of the Gallery will still be about jewelry but there will eventually be a smattering of sculptures and photography. You may even see some wall art in the form of drawings and paintings. 

When we started the goal was to create jewelry that focused on the healing benefits of aromatheropy. My husband, who is a Chainmaille artisan, then added his beautiful work. Then I discovered the fun of wire weaving and stones. Wrap Bracelets and Stone Necklaces were added and we began to loose our way.

Tom has expanded his art work to include the most beautiful wire trees. You can find them on his personal Etsy store at Etsy.com/shop/tomjonescreations. His creations are called Blessing Trees.

Each is one of a kind and made from different color wires. This is his lates sale through "The 5th Avenue Art Gallery in Downtown Melbourne, Florida.






Labadorite Wrap
By Kathee Jones
I decided to expand my love for wire weaving by adding healing stones to the weave looking back to the my roots.This is one of my latest peices that wraps around a Labadorite stone. https://etsy.me/33WCdvw

Labadorite is known to be one of the most powerful Healing Stones as it heals from within and empowers other stones with greater clearity. 

Well I think that is all for today. I have decided that with the new year I will be adding a new post once a week. I hope to set up a schedule that will make this happen on the same day every week. Wish me luck.👶Happy New Year💌

I promised you a post a week and out of nowhere I had a family emergency that sent me out of town and out of touch for a week. But I am back now and with this post I am back on track. Amethyst Bracelet  (click on picture)   If you noticed the title of todays post, you can guess that we are talking Greek. Antient Greece had a god called Dionysus (Roman equivalent of Bacchus) and is thought to be born between December 22nd and December 25th. Being the god of wine and merriment you can imagine the parties that were held in honor of his birthday. When Christianity came on the scene, it was only natural that the celebrations for Christmas would have similar traits. Epiphany marked the end of the holiday season. Christian Epiphany, January 6th, is when the wise men visited the Christ Child and the baptism of Jesus are celebrated. This lead to the tradition of celebrating the "Great Blessing of the Waters".   Enough background. The title Î±Î¼Î­Î¸Ï…στος/ amethystos may be more re...

Copper Jewelry - To Patina Or Not To Patina  by niceladyjewelry What The Heck Is A Patina? Patina is one of those words artsy types throw around. I create artsy jewelry, I'm an artsy type; and I do say things like, "This Copper Pendant will develop a lovely Patina in time." But I'm also down to earth, so when I use the word, Patina, I go a bit further and try to explain myself.   A Patina is the shift in color of a metal's surface. It can develop naturally as a result of ongoing oxidation from exposure to moisture in the air; or the color change can be induced with chemicals that speed the process. The simplest way to demonstrate is to examine a handful of Copper pennies. You will notice the newer pennies are bright and shiny, while the older ones are darker. That's Patina at work. Ohmigosh... it's turning dark Copper is a beautiful metal. Its color varies from warm, glowing brown to deepest burnt umber. Or even green, like an old s...

Wow! What a Ride! We just got back from our trip to Detroit to see our new grandson Dean and Irma came to visit. In anticipation of evacuation, we spent days deciding what to pack for transport and where we could put items that were staying behind. We worked right up to the time we were told we had to leave and then moved to a secure cinder block home with hurricane shutters. That alone was an experience with 2 cats, 2 dogs, 4 kids and 4 adults trying to stay out of each other’s way. We lost power at 9 pm Sunday so it was time for bed. The storm raged on outside as the heat rose inside. Luckily ( and I don’t say that lightly ) the storm was just about over by morning and we could start the clean-up. The home we were staying in got power back only to lose water for a day. Still, everyone was safe and sound. I thank God that our home was not touched by the storm except for a flooded yard that went down enough to return home the next day. Electricity was restored ...
