Are your stones natural?

Yes! All of my beads come from reputable suppliers and nearly all are natural gemstones. The exceptions to this are the Blue Crab Fire Agate and Dragon's Vein Agate. I try to stock up on beads as much as I can in person at the Denver Gem Show, but since it's only once a year, I have 3 suppliers in Texas, California and Illinois that I regularly restock from--who are also at the gem show. Since gemstones are unique they vary quite a bit in appearance. Some varieties of agates and jaspers may even be different colors, this is perfectly normal, and just an example of how varied nature can be. Do not be alarmed if your bracelet has a few beads that are more green or more clear than others, they are all still the same stone.

How should I cleanse the negative energy of my gemstones?

Although your stones are cleansed with Reiki prior to shipping, after wearing for some time they may absorb some of the negativity around them. This is a good question and varies depending on the stone. Some will recommend water and salt baths, but those can be very damaging to some stones. For example, Selenite will simply dissolve in water! A safe method would be smudging. The smoke of white sage will remove any negativity. You can also set them on a slab of Selenite. Selenite is a self cleansing stone and will remove negativity from other stones placed on/near it. Lastly, you can leave them on a windowsill in the moonlight. I don't recommend putting them outside, as small critters may be attracted to the shininess and run off with them!

There are so many to choose from! What gemstone do I need?

Will my stone look exactly like the one pictured?

Your raw crystal/stone (or other gemstone item) will only look exactly like the picture if the listing specifically states you are purchasing the item pictured. As these are natural gemstones there will be some variations in shades of colors and some may be more transparent or opaque than others. This is perfectly normal as color schemes and opacity can vary between different pieces. Each stone is unique (like us!) and that gives them a little character. :)
