A New Men’s Line!!!

Quite often, I’ve been asked by men if I offered anything for the guys. Up until now, my answer has always been “no”. Today changes that answer to “yes”!!! It took me some time to research the right men’s bracelet with the right look to be inline with “Elegant Wrist Candy”, eye candy for your wrist. I found two designs that I liked…the same, yet different. There are a plethora of options for what the bracelet can have in the inset. However, I believe that I’m starting with a suitable choice.

So Ladies…now you have a choice of a gift for either a lady friend, or a guy friend. You know my bracelets, in the past, have made great gifts. I bring you two different styles for the special guy in your life. These are listed in my shop, and will be available at all the craft shows that I intend to do through the end of the year, and for years to come. Don’t worry…I’ll be looking to expand the choices without giving up all the new designs that I create for you.

Check them out under a new Category entitled, “Men’s Line”. As always, thank you so much for your continued patronage with Elegant Wrist Candy.

Porcelain Jasper

Porcelain Jasper, also known as “Queen of the Jaspers” and Mayan Porcelain Jasper, is from Mexico and is as beautiful as the name implies. It has colors ranging from cream to dusty purple to inky black and these beads have an amazingly soft, silky finish.
 
The Maya civilization believed that Porcelain Jasper was bestowed with magical powers. The Mayan elite sought out this rare stone to proclaim their status. It has been used by shamans for protection and is said to absorb negative energy.

Take a look at “Porcelain Doll”, which was made with this Jasper.

Aquamarine – March Birthstone

Aquamarine (from Latin: aqua marina, water of the sea) is a blue or cyan variety of Beryl.  In ancient lore, Aquamarine was believed to be the treasure of mermaids, and was used by sailors as a talisman of good luck, fearlessness, and protection.  It was also considered a stone of eternal youth and happiness.  Aquamarine is a Water element stone, powerful for cleansing the emotional body and opening communication.  Associated with the throat chakra, Aquamarine helps overcome the fear of speaking.  Aquamarine is a stone of empowerment.
