Announcement Welcome to my shop! We carry a very unique assortment of gems, crystals and handmade wire wrapped Jewelry. This began as a hobby for me as a child and I've been collecting ever since. All gemstones from my collection on Etsy are 100% natural. None of the material that I offer, has ever been heat treated, dyed, or enhanced in any manner; unless otherwise stated on the individual listing.

To enhance the energy and purity of non-porous crystals & stones, I purify them in spring water from the Cascade Mountain range in Oregon. Then to further amplify each crystal, I place them in an ancient pristine virgin forest, surrounded by wildlife and natures purest energy. After charging for the day, at the base of largest tree in the grove, I collect the gemstones and then they await their new home. This insures all gemstones are grounded through the roots and ground beneath the ancient trees and purified providing only positive energy.

Over the years my collection has grown immensely, so I decided to try and create something positive out of it by selling as many as I can and use as much of the money as possible for my Ancient Forests Project. I do everything I can to protect our beautiful natural world and old-growth forests. . By purchasing from my shop you will create a positive impact by spreading awareness and will be protecting what's left of these beautiful treasures.

Finding this quality of carnelian is a challenge. I am going to be looking at it for a while before altering anything. Even in its present form it is beautiful.

Gemstones and Trees

Let me tell you a short story of how my store and project came to be. I have always held a vast love for trees, gemstones, nature, animals, caring people, and exploration.

I currently reside in the State of Oregon, where I discovered my life goal, my true dream!
I was exploring a grove of ancient trees, when I came across the tree in our shops profile pictures. One of the largest Douglas Fir trees in America, this ancient sentinel blew my mind. The fact that a living organism so massive truly exists, producing oxygen & clean water day in and day out, tirelessly, made me develop a deep respect for old-growth forests.

After exploring the grove a bit more, I witnessed MASSIVE stumps everywhere, and that's when I began to realize.... Huge trees, just like this one, were axed down years ago and hauled off for consumption and short term profit with no long term plan on bringing back real forests again, only over stocked monoculture plantations. What a travesty!

It brought me to my knees. How could we as a species take away the life of something older than any living humans? Many trees older than our Country itself! This thought has stuck with me for over a decade now and is a huge driving factor behind my passion for environmentalism and my love of everything nature. Gemstones connects us all to the Mother Earth and reminds me of the natural beauty we should all seek and to do everything I can to protect what remains of our natural world.

This tree set me on a mission.. To protect the last remaining stands of ancient old-growth forests here in the Pacific Northwest, and the rest the world however I can! I owe all my respect to these elders for all they have provided me and continue to provide our beautiful planet and our only home. All of the terrible suffering humans have caused to their species and the connected web of life they rely on, our Ancient Forests demands us to wake up and do anything possible to bring awareness to protect these priceless treasures. Since beginning my mission, I have raised awareness to thousands of people on social media through photography, social networking, protesting, documenting, volunteering, and growing and replanting trees.

When purchasing from my Etsy store, part of your purchase price is used to grow trees from seeds that I have personally collected at the base of Ancient trees. Your purchase also helps me remain in the forest as much as possible. Disputing logging sales, documenting and filing public comments in opposition to timber sales, trying to document endangered species to be able proof to prevent destructive logging sales which harm wildlife and further destroys habitat that endangered species rely upon. Volunteering to assist environmental groups whenever I can by attending Forest Service & BLM public field trips, adding public input and additional opposition to their actions against the needs of our forests and the environment they rely on.

Please join us in the fight to save the Earth and all its beautiful creations! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support, gratitude, and awareness! :)
