California Dreaming - the Story Behind the New Collection

November 11, 2020

Ahhhhhh California, you were one unexpected journey from beginning to end and I loved every second of it.

 About a year ago I followed my heart and went to California to reunite with a lover. We met in Hawaii and clicked right away – a beautiful connection after a year of heart healing. I was still riding high after my time in Hawaii, and California seemed like a good continuation of that journey. My friends thought I was crazy but they're used to it by now. I landed with very little expectations; I simply had no idea how the trip would unfold. I didn’t even have time to research – between unpacking, packing, and running a business, so I just went for it – heart facing forward and mind open to anything that may come.  

          

 

A few days after meeting my lover I decided to spend most of my time traveling solo. I didn’t plan it, but it felt right and with his supportive blessing I went for it.

California has taught me a valuable lesson - not every spiritual connection will turn into a long-lasting romantic relationship, but it might be the beginning of an incredibly meaningful friendship. Josh and I are not together but we totally are - he's my best friend and we talk every day. Our bond is incredibly strong. He's my rock and inspiration. As you will see throughout the new collection – this has been a reoccurring theme in my life this year – letting people in, opening my heart to new connections and letting go of old ideas of relationships and relating to others. It was a challenging lesson at the time, but I’m incredibly thankful for it.

       

When I was in California, I found beautiful pearls in different places I travelled to, which inspired the new collection. Pearls are magnificent - they are both strong and gentle. They are beautiful and vulnerable and precious, just like our hearts. We can choose to take the leap, learn from it and come out of it stronger, or we can choose to play it safe and resist our heart's desires. You know where I'm standing when it comes to matters of the heart. It’s not always easy and it’s definitely not predictable. But damn, it’s a beautiful journey indeed.

All you need is a pair of scissors, a piece of thread and a ruler.
    
Wrap the thread around your finger, then mark and cut the spot where the thread meets.
Measure the length of the thread with your ruler. This will give you the circumference (C) of your ring size
 
Now you can choose your size from our ring sizing chart.

BELLY BUTTON PIERCINGS INSTRUCTIONS 
To put in the belly button piercing, grasp the ring between the fingers and thumb on either side of the opening and pull one side of the ring toward you and the other side away from you. This will twist the metal to widen the opening for you to insert the jewellery. Do not pull the jewellery apart as this may put stress on the metal. You may use pliers if you cannot use your fingers. Put the jewellery into the hole and close the same way.
 
The ring is made of either Silver 925 or Gold-filled.
To maintain the cleanliness of the piercing, in the first week you should always wash your hands before handling, and clean 3 times a day in a saltwater solution (glass of water with three teaspoons of salt) and apply an antibiotic cream during the week. It is not recommended to enter a chlorine swimming pool within the first 10 days of changing the piercing. However, if you do, it is recommended to wash the area with soap in the shower afterwards. Seawater is good for the piercing.
You should avoid tight clothes that may snag the piercing. This may cause infection so please be careful. The warranty does not cover the jewellery in the event of infection or allergies of any kind. No responsibility for a loss.
If you have any questions or need some help, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
