Meme Monday!!



I looooove me some crystals, Over the years I have acquired some pretty nifty specimens ranging from tumbled stones to $80 crystals. However, one of my absolute favorite types of stones are Herkimer Diamonds.



I grew up in Herkimer county (in fact according to my genealogy obsessed aunt General Herkimer was my Great-great-great-great-great uncle) so I feel like they hold a little bit of home. You also have a pleasing natural shape, mind blowing clarity, stunning rainbows, and some of the most amazing resonance you can find. I recently gifted my first silver wrapped Herk to my stepmother so tomorrow I plan to wrap another, this time using wire weaving (the chubby double terminated shape of Herks makes them a difficult stone to wrap) If the resulting stone doesnt make my eye bleed I'll be sure to put it up here :)

Happy witching!
