Finding Bliss

I had been wanting to make a spiritual piece for a while, but it was just so overwhelming looking at all the beads I had and wanting to just... well, make EVERYTHING.

So, I sat down with my moleskine sketch journal (where I come up with product ideas) and I wrote down everything I wanted to portray with the piece of jewelry. Among other things was protection, a reminder to be present and also one to Embrace your life and the people within it. Look here for the full description.

It's one of my better pieces, that's for sure.

Mother Goddess/Eternal Woman Charm Bracelet

Goddess/Eternal Woman, originally uploaded by NymphDuPave.

After the last charm bracelet I made (see previous post) I was in a charm bracelet making mood :) See better pictures of this item here.

"A mother goddess is a term used to refer to any goddess associated with motherhood, fertility, creation or the bountiful embodiment of the Earth. When equated with the Earth or the natural world such goddesses are sometimes referred to as Mother Earth or as the Earth Mother." - Wikipedia

Coming from an eclectic religious background, the female side of life has always had this (Goddess Figure) same visual representation in my mind.

I love how this charm bracelet came out. It works for me :) And hopefully for others too.

Etsy Descrip: Wearing this charm bracelet embodies any or all of the following: female essence, abundance of love, motherhood/fertility, creation, the bounty of our Earth.

The Pewter Goddess figure with the spiral belly is surrounded by other charms including a green, glass leaf, a silver leaf, a clear glass bead and a green tourmaline chip.

Measuring at 7 inches (7 and 1/2 inches with the clasp) this charm bracelet has a good weight to it.
