Starfinn Designs

How beautiful is this rose lined staircase? Wrapped up my time in Califorina with an amazing lunch at Salute. Today is a travel day that will end with me back to my sweetie and pups. I will miss my best coast and I am very much ready to be home. Back to the bench, back to sharing my love of stones with you. And maybe figuring out how I can line the walk and climb of building a business with roses. 🌹💜🌹💜🌹 (at Salute E Vita Ristorante)

Solstice sun soaked quartz crystal. These two were so happy in their sun bath yesterday. I felt bad having to pack them away. They are meant to be out in the world, inhancing life and bringing courage and clarity to their person. . . . #bebrave #starfinndesigns #bebravecollection #dowhatyoulove #quartzcrystal #crystalsmakelifebetter #mixedmetals #mixedmetalwirejewelry #jewelrywithpurpose #couragebooster #overcomeyourfears #rechargeyoursoul #solsticesun #crystaljewelry #wirejewellery #wirejewelry #handmadewithapurpose #handmade

Today's office. Recharging and refueling in the Napa hills. Grateful. This Califorina girl needed some time in her home state. . . . . #californiaborn #rechargeyoursoul #5secondrule #5secondplanner #yogiteawisdom #detoxyourspirit #radicalselfcare #entrepreneurlife #doallthethings #takecareofyou #smallbusinesslife #starfinndesigns #bebravecollection #bebrave

Handful of treasures.

In California for the next few weeks to visit family and have a bit of a creative retreat. So far so Good! Simple rock crystal pendants are being born. Which do you prefer...sterling silver or yellow gold fill??

😍😍😍💜😍😍😍

Have I mentioned how much I love my JoolTool!?!? These are my first explorations in doing my own lapidary and while they are far from perfect, I love them! These are letting me play and get comfortable with the techniques and process. Thank you so much for creating this amazing tool @aniejooltool ! And thank you @onemorekissjewelry for introducing me to this fabulousness! Happy Day!

Anxiously awaiting my lapidary sanding kit so I can clean these edges and start making some pendants with these awesome druzy bits. Sometimes ground shipping is just torture!!

I pulled out the DSLR for this beauty and Wow. Such a happy little quartz point with silver and gold. Happy Friday everyone! (at Houston, Texas)

Hello Beautiful. I know I’ve been quiet on social media lately but I’m still here! This little beauty is fresh off the bench. Sometimes you need quiet and solitude to recharge the batteries. Are you taking good care of yourself? Have you taken a moment to listen to your body and spirit and hear what it is needing right now? What’s one thing you can do today that would take care of you?

A bathtub full of tumbled treasures...one of the highlights of this last weekend. 😍😍😍 (at Johnson's Rock Shop)

Thanks to my awesome rock guy I get to meet new stones that I haven't met before. This latest batch of Golden Beryl is really interesting! The pic doesn't do it justice...this puppy loves to shimmer in the sun. I find it highly ironic that this is a strong courage stone, talk about timing! It's also great for empathy and promoting understanding. I couldn't decide gold or silver...so it got both! (at Houston, Texas)

Clear quartz is so much more than just a simple crystal. So much going on with this stone, and so powerful. I'm leaning a lot on my stones right now and really enjoying playing with some new designs. I'll be test wearing this one this weekend both for stability but also because I could use the extra bravery and courage boost. As part of the Be Brave collection, it's exactly what I need. If you are needing a boost, check out my website, www.starfinn.com, and claim your Be Brave talisman. Together, we can overcome anything.

Some days #benchtherapy is the best therapy. Playing with copper mock ups for expanding the simple spiral pieces. Creating the bracelet was rather hypnotic. More of these will be happening.

Ok, I know, I am usually all about the stones and rocks and minerals...but look at these pretties fresh off the bench!!! They look like candy. 😍 As I work on the massive liquidation project I am doing I keep running across stunning glasswork. So much so that I am seriously considering a glasswork collection. What do you think? Would you be interested in seeing glass based items with a Starfinn flare?

Experimenting. Beryl in copper. This is a surprisingly calming little stone. Going to need to do some research on it as I am doing a number of them for a local shop. Good stuff.
