How I Wear MY PEACE of jewelry - Tibetan Agate Bead Necklace & skinny cords

Truly one of my favorite necklaces
Keeping My Outfit simple
really allows the Necklace to be the center of attention




Wearing a v-neck sweater that I just purchased from Target
and dark blue cords, Levi's (old)
and beige suede ankle boots thrifted
and faded old denim blazer that I rarely wear but don't have the heart give up yet

Tibetan Agate beads
Kuchi coins
Ceramic turquoise beads


Agate beads are beautifully formed over thousands of years. 
Agate is like a rock that is created when molten minerals filled up a cavity in a host rock.
They are semi-translucent.

These are fairly rustic; meaning they're not polished to a shiny finish.
Most agate beads you see on the market are too polished. 
They look too perfectly man-handled and don't allow the natural beauty to shine.
I like jewelry that's earthy, rustic and aged.
There's a lot of beauty to vintage pieces


Tibetan consider Agate beads to have positive spiritual benefits 
with the ability to provide its bearer with strength, courage & PEACE and calmness of the mind. 
No gemstone is more creatively striped by nature than these type of Agate beads.

UPDATE a/o May 2012 Because I love to work with my hands and create a variety of things. I thought I could make my own mannequins.  I used the paper mache' technique to make my mine. See below for step by step on how to make your own WO-MANNEQUIN Materials : Grocery bags, wallpaper paste and tape. Tools required: brush, box cutter, plastic wrap Grocery bags Bags from my local store Wallpaper paste (premixed) purchased from hardware store Boxcutter purchased from hardware store Method : Papier-mâché technique What is Papier-mâché?

How to Choose the Right Earrings for your Face Shape

Image
I love to make jewelry; earrings included. But I have to admit not every style is right for every Woman. Depending on your face shape some earrings types are better than others. The types of earrings you wear should depend on your FACE shape. The four basic shapes are highlighted below. SQUARE SHAPE What is a square-shaped face? - sides of your face will be straight - face will be nearly as wide as it is long - your jawline will be defined, with only a minimum curve                                                                        - strong jawline                                                                      Best EARRINGS for square-shaped face - earrings with rounded designs - elongated earrings, especially under the chin line - dangling earrings - hoop earrings These styles are considered excellent because they add a softness to the facial angles *avoid very wide, bulky, square earrings Famous square-shaped  face celebrities
