Ok, not doing this for profit, just in response to some MN'ers asking - so hopefully this isn't advertising.

But anyone who wants me to make a bracelet (or other jewellery) for them, can you post on here

Wobblyknicks, what a wonderful thing you are doing Warm fuzzies!!

Would love a bracelet, I will think about how I would like it too look and get back to you.

Glad to hear you are feeling better!

oh wow wobbly, what a wonderful thought. I would love something citrine or another dark/burnt orange colour. Will have to think about the design also.

Luv to you. you are a generous spirit.

Thanks pap - just typing one handed, always wiping my nose atm, tis horrible!!! Can get so many differents bits it would take too long to list what sort of bracelets you could have, so just tell me what you like and I'll see what I can do. Won't be an express service though I'm afraid, still feeling yuck!!

melsy - its just something I want to do for fun but there's only so many I can wear so I have to make them for other people if I'm going to be able to make them at all

colloidal silver - I have heard of this.. never taken it though.. supposed be very good for the immune system and fighting virus.

Hi wk sorry you are still wiping your nose! I like the idea of healing life giving crystals. Ones that bring happiness and health (sorry that might be them all). Hope you feel better soon and thanks alot!

Thanks gf - I'll see what I can do when (and if) my head clears.

papillion - I'll try anything but with the amount of stuff I'm taking, I wouldn't have a clue which is working!!!

gf - do you like small bracelets, ie with crystal chips or chunkier ones with crystal beads?

Chunky please like to go around with things clanking off me in manner of an old ghost! Actually like to jingle and have fat wrists!

Ok, do you like smooth, even beads or rough, tumbled pieces of stone? Would you like just one colour or multi-coloured? Do you want just gems or other things too, like charms etc?

OP posts:
unicorn · 05/05/2004 23:05

hello
Really cheeky of me as a newbie....
but I would love one.... anything that helps to calm me/ make me a peaceful- less angry- agitated soul.... (is that possible?)

glitterfairy · 06/05/2004 07:30

Wow what choice! I love charms and would like a mixture of textures but not too many colours. Thank you xx

melsy · 06/05/2004 08:40

This is a very creative space wobbly!!

I like rounded smooth stones, I love the idea of charms , what can you get hold of charm wise?? I love the idea of one stone for it. I will confirm the stone shortly, I need to match the right stone to the right chakra , if anyone can help. It is the 2nd chakra below naval , I love citrine(very deep burnt orange ones) but not sure thats linked correctly ???

unicorn - not cheeky of you at all, just don't expect a speedy service - I'm just getting over my flu and it'll also take me a bit of time getting what everyone wants.

thanks melsy - can get hold of loads of charms, pewter are the cheapest but can also get silver or gold. What sort of things do you like - animals, objects, symbols, celtic etc etc? Do you mean the sacral chakra? Citrine's one of the crystals associated with that, as well as carnelian and golden topaz.

meant to say as well, gf - what sort of charms do you like?

OP posts:
papillon · 06/05/2004 13:26

I have been thinking about and looking at stones, but am feeling rather inspirationless.
I can sort of see it
clear crystals -
with pale blue crystal

all oblong and chunky

with a very dark green hint perhaps for abit of depth????

glitterfairy · 06/05/2004 13:59

ooh charms love silver and burtn topaz how nice does that sound my real problem wk is that I always want a bit of everything but actually quite like simple stuff. everything you say sounds so temptimg which is unhelpful I know but very seductive crystals gems and charms. Ok stop it woman! How about fairys? Do they do those as charms? Also like hearts, dolphins and horses. Yousee difficult customes who likes everything! Sorry.

Heathcliffscathy · 06/05/2004 14:04

wk, could i have one??? (will pay of course and i think you should make a small profit for your time ). i like chunky, oblong/square (but not sharp edges) stones. something for feeling grounded and peaceful needed methinks...any ideas? this could become a from home business for you in the blink of an eye i reckon...

Heathcliffscathy · 06/05/2004 14:11

have i been rude?

papillon · 06/05/2004 18:17

Sophable - can´t see for the life of me how u have been rude?

Wooblyknicks you will be an expert in no time with consultation and design

pap - that sounds nice, will have a think about stones and make some suggestions.

gf - exactly the same problem as me then!! The thing that sparked this whole thing was that I was going to make a bracelet for myself and I've got a few ideas but still not sure what I want!! I've made a few gemstone chip bracelets on elastic but I want one on a silver bracelet, with the gems hanging off. Just got to make my mind up!! They do all of those things as charms, so will see what I can do.

That's the other thing you've all got to decide - what sort of bracelet - on elastic, on thread or wire with a clasp or a silver/gold bracelet with everything hanging off?

sophable - of course you can have one, anyone who wants one can (as long as they don't mind being patient!!). Don't want to make any profit atm, as you'll probably all end up with a less-than-express service and I'm still finding my feet!!! But I'd love to do it as a business in the future, and then I'll have tons of satisfied customers already too!!!

I'm already thinking of doing a business plan to get some cash from the Princes Trust but that'll need a lot more time and thought.

forgot to reply to your other q soph! Amethyst is very calming, carnelian helps you understand your inner self, fluorite is grounding, jasper keeps you grounded and in control of your emotions, tigers eye centres you and keeps you balanced.

Don't suggest you wear all of them together though, so you still have to choose, lol!!
