DC: Aqua & face 14


it is her aqua aura 
that supported her chosen path

energy of a healers stance
breath of alpine waters
presence of serenity
wisdom of the ancients

~

long ago i took a thin sheet of wax
carved these heart-full pieces
cast them in sterling silver

i had strung them in pearls
but tired of that
and this weeks aqua inspired a new expression:
blue quartz, chalcedony, aqua marine and chrysophase


this is how it was for the first 20 years:

  5. Loving aqua elf girl, but am totally amazed to pieces at your beautiful necklace. You've done an amazing job of casting. My one attempt at the lost wax method resulted in only the most marginal success. But I think you're right; the time has come to change its pearly shine to a deep, tranquil, watery one. Thank you so much for joining and I hope your weekend is spectacular.
