Time for a little something new we’d like to try out: ✨💙 Taxonomical Tuesdays 💙✨

On this day of the week, we will aim to share a new taxonomical (or anatomical) fact for one of the many wonderful Butterfly & Moth species that we work with!

Now for today’s fact of the day ↬

Did you know a group of Butterflies is called a Kaleidoscope? 🦋

We don’t know who gets the position of deciding on the names of different groups of animals, but it sounds like a dream job! 💭🌛 These Brilliant Blue buckeye Butterflies are always a crowd favorite. They pack all of the iridescence & beauty as some of our larger pieces, but in a much daintier package, while still featuring all four wings from each butterfly 🪽

All handcrafted by us, with genuine gemstones & ethically-sourced wings!🙏

Which is your favorite of these 4 pendants?

🌶️ Peppers & Pottery 🫖✨

Crafted this darling pair of charm earrings recently~ they were such a hit, these have found a home already & we’ve already been requested to make another set! These feature gold-rimmed, ceramic pots with flower designs, faceted Azurite & Golden Tiger’s Eye beads, along with glass lamp-work beads shaped like little Chili & Bell peppers, on stainless steel with gold-plated chain accents~

I’ve always loved miniatures & charms since I was little. Getting to combine two of my favorite things with my passion & creativity is so much fun ❤️‍🔥🙏

I’ve been making “Trinkets & Oddities” charm necklaces, and have now made a couple bracelets & pairs of earrings. What fun charm accessories would you like to see next? 👁️

This bright & beautiful Sulphur butterfly necklace is available now! 🌞 Crafted from all four wings of a Phoebis philea butterfly, with a star-studded cast of gemstones to accentuate her beauty 🦋✨

This breathtaking piece is crafted from two hindwings of a Giant Blue Morpho butterfly 🦋 & is accentuated by three incredibly flashy gemstones, chosen to accentuate the bright blue color of the wings; Labradorite, Blue Kyanite & Rainbow Moonstone 🌈💎✨

Did you know the vibrant blue color you see isn’t an actual pigment at all?? It’s just a trick of the eyes! The way they process light being diffracted through the thousands of microscopic scales that make up the wing; a process science calls ~Optical Interference~ and we like to call Nature’s Magic Trick 👁️🪄

This gorgeous nature-inspired adornment is available in the shop now!

❄️The Snow Queen 👑

“Many a winter’s night she flies through the streets & peeps in at the windows and then the ice freezes on the panes into wonderful patterns like flowers”🪄 🌼

We love these shots that KripticVisions captured of our fierce friend Fire.Nymph~ wearing her Blue Morpho butterfly pendant 🦋 and looking like she just appeared straight out of a fairytale! It’s giving ‘The Snow Queen’ by Hans Christian Andersen vibes for sure 📖🌨️✨

The last Sunset Moth forewing pendant we posted was well-received so we thought we’d share this one~ beautifully crafted with a genuine Ammonite fossil! The fossil shell is accentuated with a small-but-flashy Welo Opal placed delicately in the center of its spiral, along with Labradorite, chosen specifically for how well it reflects the colors of the wings, and a subtle little kiss of Amethyst above that.

Please feel free to check out our shop! Lots more nature-inspired & ethically-sourced adornments await 🦋🌿✨

Prior to leaving town for the holidays, we had taken some time to install some new lights in the shop~💡✨

My partner definitely took the lead here and I could not have done it without his help! I don’t think he’s ever done an installation job like this & I am very proud of his handiwork 🥰

What do you think?
