Little daith action we got to do last week. We think the ring looks amazing with this hematite bead. Thanks to @chuxtime for putting this ring out so fast for us to make it possible! -JS ps: Thank you for taking a look! : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #anodize #anodizingisawesome #allniobium (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxiV4kqn83c/?igshid=1epq0o47zc4o4

While all my colleagues are enjoying their piercer hangs in Vegas, I’m enjoying my awesome customer hangs here at the studio! This lovely young lady just turned 18 and came into get the nose piercing she’s always wanted. What piercing have you always really wanted to get? -JS ps: Thank you for taking a look! : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist @neometaljewelry #neometal #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #wateropal #prongset #alltitanium (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxfzKeMHg-H/?igshid=x39bq939sdyx

@ashley_darling pierced this #industrial 2 yrs ago, and we had fun taking it and making a really cool barbell out of some random odds and ends that could be used in other piercings too. -JS ps: Thank you for taking a look! : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist @anatometalinc #anatometal #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #opal #bulletcut #prongset #princesscut #bezelset #alltitanium (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxNp9gdHgjG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5i2ryzye9c2x

With a little bit of patience, this nostril healed up quite nicely and gets to go home with a new gold nose ring. -JS ps: Thank you for taking a look! : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #gold #solidgold #18kgold #notyourmamasgold (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwux0EjH7gb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2p3zzduqi3l5

Got to add a black opal to this cool #doublenostril on my sons old babysitter @shethatispakeof, she definitely left an impression on him cuz he wouldn’t get out of the shot, 😂! -JS ps: Thank you for taking a look! : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #cabochon #opal #bezelset #alltitanium #americanmade #highpolish @neometaljewelry #neometal (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwppCS3nGZz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=616ls0fxcdug

With all this warm weather, it’s a wonderful time to show off that belly button jewelry! This is a beautiful lavender gemstone in a double-tier setting.-JS : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers @anatometalinc #anatometal #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #cluster #brilliantcut #swarovski #swarovskicrystals #bezelset #alltitanium (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwXiNXVHxW2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17ybgykvzyekk

So when your favorite color is #teal and you want your jewelry to match your glasses, #anodizing it is the perfect solution! This #daith was so much fun to do. We paired it with a #hematite captive bead—which looks so cool in contrast!-JS : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers @anatometalinc #anatometal #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #anodize #anodizingisawesome #niobium (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwKwkKrni1l/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vxljwz6fd6hn

I’d like to take a second to talk about one of the most beautiful, smart, and loving people in my life. She IS without a doubt the only reason I get out of bed everyday, I would be lost without her. Honestly she is my everything and I’m so grateful for everything she does for our family and business. A true life partner, I am glad to be able to hang out with her on this adventure. There is so much she does, I don’t even know where to start! Thank you for being my everything and my #wcw!!! Technically you are my #wce (woman crush everyday) but you know it Wednesday and all. -JS : : : : #PureImaginationArts #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #unf (at Atlantic Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwFgUwklHBr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p45yvo1vgvcb

This #tbt has me reflecting on when I got to meet Fakir Musafar @fakirintensives. It’s where I had my “piercer awakening,” and vowed to myself that I would everything in my power to only offer the safest materials and environmental criteria for my customers. When you know better, you have to do better. This is also a reminder to everyone attending the APP conference: the Body Piercing Archive is going to be featuring the beloved late Fakir. Make sure you stop by and learn about one of our industry’s pioneers. Also, I forgot to post this cool little gem from last July. We took a simple piece of niobium and anodized it yellow gold to match her other rings. Them we added this neat white opal gem ball to mix 😍-JS : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember @anatometalinc #anatometal #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #americanmade #highpolish #cabochon (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv2RfQtHGLU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vkh1hikc15uj

So, this is the way you make your big comeback to the piercing world after a spider try’s to take off your finger! After some nice time off and a custom order arriving we got to do this cool #industrial piercing with a twist. Thank you to Amber @bethechange_828 for helping us with the 90 degree hematite hub, and thank you to @joeltrondotcom for the cool and informative back drop for our jewelry photo.-JS : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember @anatometalinc #anatometal #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers #atlanticbeachfl #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #alltitanium #americanmade #highpolish #cabochon #industrialpiercing (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvzpvs6HQe1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ilyedw45s55x

#tbt to @jonthepiercer 10 year piercer-versary. We’ve been going nonstop and just realized we never thanked everyone for celebrating with us! It was a great day, with past and new customers, and Jon even got the #sweetestnote from our very first @pureimaginationarts studio regular❤️-GS (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvSDBZhnZnU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bpb1b70zfmpg

#flashbackfriday with this #conch piercing. We pierced it with a simple bead and when she was ready to upgrade the bead to a #cluster we made it look like she always had it there.-JS : : : : #PureImaginationArts #jonthepiercer @safepiercing #safepiercing #APPmember #AssociationofProfessionalPiercers @anatometalinc #floridapiercing #atlanticbeach #neptunebeach #jacksonvillebeach #jacksonvilleartist #duvalartist #igersjax #jacksonvilleuniversity #fscj #unf #statimlife #alltitanium #americanmade #highpolish #bezelset #swarovski #swarovskicrystals (at Pure Imagination Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt6yXUGH13U/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=87flbol47nz8
