One of a Kind Baby Shower Gift Ideas

I despise giving normal gifts! And for special occasions like a baby shower or for a Mom-to-be or Mother's Day giving a unique gift makes the event even more memorable. 

When i created the line of Peaceful Peapod necklaces, i had an acupuncture practice in Alexandria VA. Many of my female patients had fertility issues. I also use crystals in my practice to enhance the treatments (for human and animals). So the inspiration to create jewelry with healing gemstones was born.

The Peaceful Peapod Necklaces are handcrafted with non-tarnish colored copper wire in pea pod shapes. Copper wire enhances the healing properties of gemstones and pearls. Many folks have given these to new moms as a gift. So much nicer than a diaper bag!

Each pea pod has a few semiprecious stones or freshwater pearls inside. https://whispersoftheofae.com/peaceful-pods

The Enchanted Bird Nest Necklaces are created with the same non-tarnish wire. I love giving these as Baby Shower gifts. Makes a gorgeous Easter or Spring birthday gift too!

I used genuine semiprecious stones that are said to calm, soothe and relieve stress as well as freshwater pearls which the Chinese believe are a fertility aid. Each necklace is one of a kind. A silk organza necklace cord is included. 

All gemstones, crystals and pearls are first cleared and saged, then charged with Reiki. Made in our Practical Magic Salem Studio by jeanie mossa in Salem, MA.

So happy to debut my new line of sea inspired jewelry.... Aphrodite's Grotto.

Created with seashells found on my excursions to the local North Shore of MA and Salem MA beaches. Stunning European Oyster seashells in hues of purple, pink and sea green wire wrapped with healing crystals, gemstones, freshwater pearls, crystal beads and shiney baubles. All seashells, crystals and semiprecious stones are saged and then charged with Reiki.

My muse thinks these would be unique accessories for a mermaid wedding, or bridal shower gifts, bridesmaids' gifts or for anyone who is in love with the sea.

Many of my ideas and inspiration for the jewelry and art i create comes from my walks on the beach. My favorite beach to visit is Waikiki Beach on Winter Island in Salem MA. (I can walk there on a pretty day or hop in the car and be there in five minutes.)

Of course one of my inner child's favorite things to do is collect seashells, driftwood and rocks from the beach. I always make sure that i do not pick up any creatures that could still be alive. The main types of shell found on this beach are European Oysters, Slipper Shells, Clams and tiny Fairy Snail shells. Lots of broken up crab shells and claws. Sometimes i will find a decent piece of driftwood. Lots of cool rocks and pebbles. 

Love the tidepools, lapping waves and laughing sea gulls of the island. Most of all the sea breeze aromatherapy. If only we could bottle that! After a visit to Winter Island my muse is happy, my mind and body calm and my bucket is filled with seashells! Time to go home and create. 

Since moving back to Salem MA, my husband and i have been visiting several of the local beaches as much as possible when the weather permits. I believe this has been the catalyst for my new line of jewelry and art... Aphrodite's Grotto.

Aphrodite is the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty. Know as Venus by the Romans. The Greek word aphros means foam. It is said she was born from white foam. You can almost see her while watching the waves on Winter Island!

I am in the process of photographing and adding these new pieces to the Whispers of the O'Fae shoppe now, which is a very long process. (Sometimes i feel it takes longer to photograph and do all the left brain work of writing about the piece, pricing it and dealing with all the intrigate details of making sure it is listed properly on the site than it does to create the art!) My muse would rather create all day!

Sneak peek! Wire wrapped European Oyster Shell with Sea Deva created with ecofriendly paper clay. I use paper clay instead of Fimo or Sculpey because it is biodegradable and non-toxic. I love combining freshwater pearls with semiprecious gemstones, glass beads and moss for an ethereal feel.
