beads

Beading is an art form of techniques and intuition that produces beautiful and unique jewelry. In recent years it has become more than just a trendy hobby craze--it is catching on as a way to "quiet the mind ", tune out the chatter of worries and focus the mind on the task at hand. By keeping the left side of the brain "busy" with beading, the right side of the brain is free to connect with intuitive messages and divine inspiration.

Beading can also be used to create "spiritual jewelry" by incorporating crystals and semi-precious stones that correlate with chakras, the zodiac or just what your heart feels like making at that moment.

Bead shops and classes have sprung up nationwide as beading gains in popularity. Mountain Books & Gifts carries hand beaded jewelry by local artists including Cool Moon Creations.
