Bringing Awareness - Stop the Bullying and Judging!

I was contacted by a fellow Etsy Shop Owner today - Christine by Hand - and was told one of my jewelry items - my Faceted Purple Amethyst Earrings - had been featured in her Etsy Treasury today.  

She found out that someone on Facebook had designated today as "Wear Purple Day" in order "to bring awareness to, and put an end to intolerance in honor of the 6 people who commited suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse at home and in schools" and she created an Etsy Treasury to help bring awareness to this crisis. She's also posted this to her blog and you can read about it here!

I was very honored to be included in her Etsy Treasury (lots of great iems - check out all the shops please!) but most of all I was touched by the reason she put the Etsy Treasury together and feel that this is such a great way to honor those who's lives weren't lived to their fullest.

I believe by bringing awareness to why bullying and judging others is such an unhealthy way of acting, thinking and living, that it will help us all to learn how to practice tollerance and help us focus on making ourselves better people.  We need to STOP the bullying and bring awareness of how crippling these type of actions and thinking are to our society (and our world). 

Thanks Christine for reminding us to be aware, to practice tollerance and to "Love One Another".

Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and Acceptance!!

Sharing With Others,....


I just wanted to pass on this great blog, Making Stuff is Fun!! 

The Blog belongs to a customer of mine and she purchased some of my earring wires from my Shel's Jewelry Shop on Etsy and posted a few pics of the earrings she designed using them. 

These are her beautiful green earrings above!  Love 'em, don't you?!! She also has a "pretty in purple" pair as well!

Go check out the blog and her Etsy shop, Jellisen Designs - it's pretty coolio, I'm telling you!

And, stay tuned, as quite a few of my clients have promised to send in pics of their designs with supplies they've purchased from my little Etsy shop!

Until Next Time,
Peace, Love and Happy Creating!!
Cheers,
