Geodes and Chippy Necklaces


 I'm working on items for an upcoming sale.
I made eternity findings for the geodes, because the
larger opening allows for use of stone chip necklaces.
I've used Fluorite, Labradorite and Turquoise chips
to create these "chippy necklaces."

Geodes!


 Geodes are a stunning mineral, formed through volcanic action.  As rocks, they are pretty
non-descript.  However, they are hollow inside and contain masses of sparkling mineral material.  

I have a little collection of geodes and decided to 
attempt some jewelry making.  Some geodes are too
brittle to drill, so are more appropriate for wire wrapping.
Whether you drill them or wrap, they make a 
wonderful jewelry statement.  

Metaphysically, geodes are said to produce energy,
and thus help to calm mind and spirit.
