My newest product: Zen on the Go Purse Charms are now available at The Art We Are in Kamloops!

This is Jewellery for your bag, purse or tote, but the real purpose of the products is a tactile soothing stone that is always with you when you need it.
When you need some Zen just gather the charm in your hand and roll them around. Caress them and feel the soothing energy, feel the peace.
The elements used to create the charms were chosen for their special properties and how they feel in your palm.

Three products: Bag Charm/Bracelet, Tote Charm and Purse Charm.

Both one sided live edge and some special double-sided live edge.

Beautiful wood, kiln dried, some planks have been planed and sanded. Different styles of live edge; raw, peeled and log scraped style. See pics.

Did some custom finished live edge shelving for a Downtown Kamloops professional office. Used Fruitwood colour Danish oil which really made the grain pop! Finished off with hardwood floor varathane to seal and shine. Love how they turned out!

Nature’s Treasures

Nature’s Treasures from forest floors, lakeshore beaches and sunny seashores. Gathered with love and reverence for mother nature. Accented with Upcycled Finds found through vintage shops, family estates and the homes of friends.

Celebrating Mother Nature is in my genes. My Grandfather was a geologist and an artist; Creating “Paintings” with layers of rock slices. I spent my youth outdoors in the wilds of Chilcotin Country and I enjoy helping others to bring Nature’s charms into their homes.

Living home charms are created from crystals, wood, stones and other bits of earth’s bounty. Each element chosen for the inherent properties that suit each charm’s intention. Enhance any room, any home; apartment, house, RV or yurt. Enjoy the positive energy of Natures Treasures and share the beauty with friends and loved ones.

Happy Place suspended art is created from an assortment of beads which possess positive inherent properties, such as quartz, agate, wood, lava, metal, faceted glass, crystal, semi precious stones, plus occasional upcycled items. Strings are designed with “floating” or solid beads.
