My work as an intuitive and healer is what brought about my interest in designing jewelry using semi-precious stones that have healing qualities. I would often carry healing stones around with me in a pouch or pocket, and would suggest to clients that they carry a particular stone or stones.As times I felt awkward carrying around a pouch so I came up with the idea of incorporating these stones into a piece of jewelry. I was surprised to find this work very relaxing, and at first it was just a hobby. Suddenly friends and clients showed an interest in the pieces I designed. This encouraged me to continue. In time I began selling my jewelry at Art Festivals. I continue to do art festivals and have sold some pieces to area stores.
