In the past week, I’ve had several conversations with people about how the things we loved to see and do in childhood usually translate into our greatest passions as adults. I feel like I was my most authentic, intuitive self when I was young – and have spent much of my adult life working (and playing) to get my spirit back to that place.
That’s the reason Karen of TheGypsysThimble created her Wild Beauty series of handmade necklaces. When we tap into that inner child and wild beauty within us, she says, we begin to remember who we were…and who we are. Karen created Wild Beauty necklaces using high quality crystals, beads and semi-precious stones, antiqued charms of birds and dragonflies, among other things. Be sure to check out her Etsy site because everything’s 20% off and she’s got free shipping through December!
