Unakite and Garnet on Copper Bracelet - Jewelry with Meaning -

Unakite and garnet can both be found and mined in North Carolina! I love this and being a rock hound, have done my fair share running up and down creek beds looking for fun stone, minerals, crystals and more. 

Did you know, Unakite is named after the Unakas Mts, where it was first discovered, right here in North Carolina.   Makes me happy to call this home. 



These two stones are a great combination as well, with its properties of gentleness and love. 






Garnet cleanses and re energizes the chakras. It revitalizes, purifies and balances energy, bringing serenity or passion as appropriate. ... Garnet balances the sex drive and alleviates emotional disharmony. It activates and strengthens the survival instinct, bringing courage and hope.


 Unakite Jasper brings together the abundant, nurturing energy of green with the soft, caring passion of pink in one of Nature's most healing crystals of the heart and mind. It resonates with the frequency of love, compassion and kindness, and is a stone dedicated to balancing the emotional body.

Rose Quartz Wire Wrapped in Copper - Jewelry with Purpose - Love and Forgiveness

I got these rose quartz cabochons from KGNShop on Etsy. When they have a sale, someone hold my wallet, please!!



These are real beauties, and fun to wrap. I got them in ovals and tear drops and they are a big hit in my shop. 

The way they are cut, it leaves the natural form of the rose quartz on the top of the stone, and a matte finish on the back of the stone. 


Did you know that rose quartz is always translucent, but never transparent? It never forms in crystal faces or in crystals, that would make it pink quartz!

It has a beautiful almost waxy look to it. 

Rose quartz is the stone of love and forgiveness.  It helps with understand and having empathy with others. It clears out anger, jealousy, lowers stress of the heart, and allows healing of heart issues and dis-ease associated with holding on to such negative emotions.

I try to practice being peaceful and kind, and am grateful that somedays I have a rose quartz with me. It can be tough out there!!

Chalcedony with Jasper Earrings - Jewelry with Meaning - Brotherhood


Thats chalcedony?

picture of slice of chalcedony taken from WikiCommons
Isn't it suppose to look like this?



"Gigantic Chalcedony - 1" by the justified sinner is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 2.0


Chalcedony has many faces, just like all stones. When you have the beautiful solid color stone, that is set in earrings, ring or in your favorite pendant, that is what most of us think of when we think of chalcedony. 

But wait there is more!!

Chalcedony (I used to pronounce it Chal-si-doney) really is the mother of all stones. When you break down the stones family tree, These varieties include agate, carnelian, onyx, sardonyx, chrysoprase, jasper, bloodstone, chert, and flint. Which all come from quartz!!

These earrings are chalcedony with jasper, just not what is considered the best quality stone, because it is not a solid classic chalcedony color. 

The jewelry store quality doesn't take away from the stones properties. 


Chalcedony is a nurturing stone (just like jasper is nurturing and gentleness)  that promotes brotherhood and good will. It absorbs negative energy. It brings the mind, body, emotions and spirit into harmony. Chalcedony instills feelings of benevolence and generosity.

What a beautiful little stone with awesome energy!!

Agate and Quartz Copper Wire Wrapped Pendant - Jewelry With Purpose - Harmony and Balance




This is a beautiful specimen of how agate and quartz form together, and probably a little chalcedony as well.  This little high dome cabochon has an outside rim of agate, and the inside is quartz.  I love the pattern of the lines of agate, and the intricacy of the quartz center.

Agate is a stone of balance and harmony. It improves concentration, and soothes anger and tension. It brings a feeling of security and safety. 
Quartz is a master healer, and an amplifier of energy. 
This is an awesome combination, and it happened naturally over millions of years. 

Lots of love here :)

Ruby Wire Wrapped with Copper Pendant - Compassion

To me it is fun to see the variations of the 'quality' of stones. Most of us think of a faceted little stone set in earrings or ring when we think of a ruby. That is the jeweler quality of the stone, but where does the stone come from? 

While mining for stones, there will be a vein, or pocket where the stones are mined. As they are sifting thru the ruby deposit, some portions of the vein are developed differently, in that more transparent, deep color that we are used to. 

But what about the rest of the ruby? 

This pendant is a great example of what can be done with what is discarded from the mines. 

A chunk of ruby, smoothed and formed into a cabochon with inclusions of what else may have been forming in the vein with it. 

BEAUTIFUL!!!!


Ruby has been associated with energy and concentration, creativity, loyalty, honor and compassion. Ruby is also a stone of protection.  Big protection. Used to protect, family, home and possessions. It also brings spiritual wisdom.

Ceramic Bead Wire Wrapped with Copper Wire Pendant - Wire Wrap for Beginners


Sometimes even the simplest little bead can be the most beautiful pendant. 

On occasion I find a strand or two of really pretty ceramic beads. They work great into a necklace design as accents, and are not has heavy as a stone bead of the same size. 

In these ceramic beads, I find a few that the pattern or the color after glazing it just too pretty to make it part of something. It needs to be the showcase. 

These are so simple to make, and are so pretty!!



Most ceramic beads have a big hole, so you can use two strands of wire This is 22 ga copper wire. 
Make a bale at the top of the wire, add an accent if you want and slide the bead onto the wire. 
Bend the tail of the wire up to the front of the bead and form a spiral or two, and then wrap the tail around the bale again to secure it into place. 

Separate the two wires on the bale to create a butterfly bail and you're done. 

The wire accent is on the front, and the back is nice and smooth.

It's that easy.

Wire Wrapped Copper Cuff with Amethyst and Fluorite Chips - Jewelry with Meaning - Peacefully Brings Order to Chaos

These bracelets are fun and easy to make.

Use a heavy copper ga. like a 14 ga. If you have a bracelet mandrel, form the wire around the mandrel at the size you want, leaving extra length on the end to coil. If you don't have a mandrel, free form the wire into a cuff form, leaving extra length on the ends to coil.

Coil the ends, using a round nose pliers. Hammer the form on an anvil to give it tinsel strength. Now you have a vague cuff shape to work with.

Using 24 ga copper wire, begin at the base of the coiled end, and wrap the 24 ga wire around the cuff form, spiraling up the form as you go. Keep the wraps tight!

When you are about 1/3 of the way up, start adding your stone chips to the wire, and wrap 3 times in between each stone. Do this across the top of the bracelet about a 1/3 of the way. Now stop adding the stones, and wire wrap the cuff form, down to the base of the opposite coil, so that the whole cuff, excluding the coils has been wrapped in copper.

Now you can free form and shape the cuff to the size you are wanting, or to your wrist!!!

Choose any type of stone chip, swarovski crystal or mix and match!!

Straight up adorbs!!!

Peridot and Sterling Wire Pendant - Compassion


I wanted to do something a little different. Instead of wrapping a stone, I made a simple design from 18 ga sterling silver wire and added 
4mm peridot beads as an accent. It is a real fun combination!



Very simple design: cut a length of wire, use a round nosed pliers and bend the wire around the base of the tine at the mid point of the wire. On one end of the wire, made a wire wrapped loop. On the other end of the wire, wrap it around the base of the wire wrapped loop one, and make a spiral out of the tail to lock it into place. Then hammer the wire to hold the shape of the pendant, and add wire wrapped peridot accents. Use any bead to accent this pendant.



Known as the stone of compassion, peridot is believed to bring good health, restful sleep and peace to relationships by balancing emotions and mind. This friendly bright green stone also has the uncanny ability to inspire eloquence and creativity; it also brings delight and good cheer. (1)

Did you know, one of only two gems (Diamond is the other) formed not in the Earth’s crust, but in molten rock of the upper mantle and brought to the surface by the tremendous forces of earthquakes and volcanoes.(2)

Copper Wire Wrapped Serpentine Donut Pendant - Not Jade

A lot of times you will see serpentine sold as jade. But this isn't the case. Serpentine has a waxy feel to its finish, and is light weight. It also makes more of a thunk when tapped. Jade has a glassy smoother finish and is heavier than it looks. It also makes a 'tink' when tapped. 

If you have bought this stone before, meaning serpentine, but you were told it was jade, never fear. Serpentine is a beautiful little stone with amazing properties!






Serpentine is a great stone for meditation opening doors for spiritual exploration. It helps with directing healing energy toward problem areas. Think of it as your guide to past lives, helping you regain those lost memories and wisdom.

Elephant Skin Jasper (Calligraphy Stone) Pendant


I fell over backwards when I saw this elephant skin jasper cabochon. I ordered a cabochon lot on  Etsy from KGNShop

This big elephant skin jasper was in it!!

The pattern in the stone is mesmerizing. I could look at it all day. The pattern is made from fossilized shells. 

I wrapped it in sterling silver wire, and added an imperial jasper accent. 

Elephant skin jasper or calligraphy stone is a stone that brings happiness. It removes negative thoughts and brings in positive thoughts. It is a great stone to have if you are working through difficult situations in your life. Use this stone in meditation to clear your mind of useless or harmful thoughts and allow yourself to focus on what is really important.

Fabric Bracelets - DIY





These fabric bracelets are my newest creations that are taking over Raleigh, and beyond!

This is a fun way to upcycle scraps of fabric into jewelry. 



I use a metal core, of 12 ga copper, or 12 ga aluminum, wrap it around a soup can, it will be about the same size as a standard bangle, or you can use a zip tie. The zip tie has a bit more flexibility than I like, but it will still work. Once you have a 'core' you will need to hammer the wire, to give it a tinsel strength.





Now you need to adjust the size of the core to make a bracelet. The standard industry size is about 2.5" inner width. For me that doesn't work. I have huge hands, so I make mine a bit bigger, so when finished, the inner width is 3" and I can slide them right on!




Cut your strips of material, about an inch in width.  Pinch it tight with your fingers and start to wrap around the wire. Over lap the material to create some bulk as you are wrapping. Continue to wrap the fabric around the core for several revolutions. You want 2 - 3 layers of fabric to give it some cushion.  Then use a scrap of wire to wrap around the end of the fabric to hold it in place!

There you have it!!

Your own wire wrapped bracelet!!!

They are a lot of fun to make, and a great way to use up scrap material.
