Many months ago a very thoughtful and generous Melody sent me this lovely nugget from nature. The heart in the middle is SO amazing.
After months of admiring this little gem as is (it sat on my studio shelf where I would see it regularly and inevitably smile each time.) Yesterday, while going through my items of potential, like this precious nugget from nature, I felt an urge to do something special with it. So I did some slight altering and created this sparkle-centered necklace.
From within there is a light…
…let it shine.
May the glittery goodness inside you be the light that inspires others to shine.

That’s beautiful, is it a walnut shell? It’s really cool!
Hope you’re having a great week 🙂 Scarlett

Scarlett, I think it’s either a walnut shell or perhaps a peach pit.

You took something that was in itself simply perfect and then raised the bar.
A delight.

Finding hearts in nature always brings a smile to my life. Thank you, dear Becky, for sharing yours…and embracing what nature has to teach us/me about our/my own “glittery goodness” from within is a wonderful start to a/my day. Happy day glittered with goodness and light to you!
