My Entry

"Butterfly, Oh Butterfly!"

"May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun

And find your shoulder to light on,

To bring you luck, happiness and riches

Today, tomorrow and beyond." ~ Irish Blessing

Oh, those fluttering butterflies! How they capture your heart, and are regarded as a symbol of Springtime!

Shell Butterfly Pendant Convertible Necklace........This Butterfly Necklace is so beautiful and is "one of a kind". This is a very unique necklace as it can be worn 2 ways. One) being with the pendant,

or Two) take the magnetic clasp pendant off and wear the necklace separately as a beautifully designed strand of pearls.

In the top photo , I have photographed the reverse side of the pendant to show the magnetic mechanism that can be easily opened and closed. Free Shipping!!

Length: Adjustable from 18 inches to 21.5 inches ============================================================

Welcome to UWIB Monthly Blog Hop!

Every 4th Sunday

This month’s theme is -Something Green -

My entry is

*Green is Life*
www.jmjcreations.etsy.com

www.etsy.com/listing/68985007/green-is-life-feng-shui-necklace-with

www.etsy.com/listing/68985007/green-is-life-feng-shui-necklace-with

Abundant in nature, green is also the feng shui color of:

• fresh energy

• new beginnings

• healing

• growth

• renewal

Using my knowledge of feng shui, I included green leaves which is reminiscent of Spring. As I was creating this necklace for our "Going Green" Blog Hop, it was important to me to have several different shades in order to maximize the feng shui energy effects. There are literally hundreds of greens to choose from. From fresh spring color of the newly opened leaves to the strong green of a mighty oak tree.

The color green is also very nourishing to your health, as it calms your nerves and balances your whole body by bringing healing feng shui vibrations from Mother Nature. Wearing this necklace can bring balance, harmony and stability.

Sit back, grab a cup of coffee
and
wow over the "green" creations of the talented UWIB Ladies!

Enjoy yourself

and please leave a comment.

We love to read how we are doing!

(click link to shop)

Description:

This ring was inspired by the seashore at East Hampton. Can you visualize the curls of the waves at the bottom, tumbling into disarray at the top of the ring? I watched the waves reform and tumble, a different formation each time. Mesmerizing!

This is a sterling silver band ring, which can be adjusted from sizes 7 to 9 (it's currently at a size 8) with a little squeeze or pull.

Steel brushed finish, under 1/2 inch wide. A "one of a kind" statement ring! The curls of the waves are not fragile at all, since it was hand sawn from 16 g silver.

Description:
This is a truly modern and unusually designed fine silver band ring in a generous size 7.5 to 8 with a brush finish and fine silver scrolled detail. The colors in the stones are clear and clean, and LAB CREATED perfect sky blue spinel stones are swirl and cabochon set. Very comfortable to wear!
