NOTE: I love crystals and the properties they are said to possess. I create bracelets using various crystals and I like to consider how one of my bracelets might help the wearer. You don’t have to believe in their powers to enjoy them… so, I’ll be talking about crystals a lot mainly because it’s too cold to garden in Washington state right now.
