How Do I Measure My Wrist Size?

Stretch bracelets are designed to fit snugly, so here’s how to measure your wrist to ensure a comfortable fit. You will need a soft measuring tape or a piece of non-stretchy string, a ruler and a pen or marker.
If you are using a measuring tape, simply wrap it around your wrist where you'd like the bracelet to sit. Make sure it's snug but not too tight, as you'll want the bracelet to be comfortable. 
If you're using a piece of string, wrap it around your wrist at the desired position and mark where the two ends meet. Lay the marked string flat and use a ruler to measure the length from the end to the marked point. Write down the measurement you obtained. This is your wrist size for the stretch bracelet.
If you prefer a tighter fit, you can subtract a small amount (about 0.25 inches or 0.5 centimeters) from your measurement. If you prefer a looser fit, you can add a bit to your measurement.
My stretch bracelets are made with strong durable elastic cords, so they can stretch a bit to accommodate your wrist size. However, it's still essential to have an accurate measurement to ensure a comfortable fit. By following these steps, you'll be able to determine your wrist size and choose a stretch bracelet that fits you comfortably.

How Do I Care For My Crystal Jewellery?

Use a microfiber cloth to gently wipe off any oils, dust or dirt that may accumulate while you’re wearing it. You can use a damp cloth, but don’t use any soap, cleaning chemicals or abrasive materials as that may damage the stones. 

Avoid getting your bracelets wet. Do not wear your crystal bracelets in chlorinated pools, hot tubs and the ocean. It can make the crystals to appear dull and will wear the elastic down, causing it to snap.

Allow your perfumes and body lotions to dry off before wearing your jewellery. Take your bracelets off before working out. 

If you see any discolouration on your hardware, gently polish your jewellery with a soft cloth or specialist cleaning cloth.

Store them in a cool dry place and avoid storing them in direct sunlight.

How Do I Cleanse And Charge My Crystal Jewellery?

Crystals are believed to absorb and retain the energies of their surroundings so regular cleansing and changing of them is important to not only restore them to their natural state, but also to reinvigorate your intentions.
There are various methods to cleanse and charge your jewellery and here are some common methods:

  • Sunlight and moonlight: Placing your crystals for a few hours in direct sunlight will provide them with a body of energy. Please be aware that light sensitive citrine, amethyst and rose quartz are not to be left in the heat of the sun as they can eventually start to fade. If you are using moonlight, do so for a few hours during or close to a full moon phase where the moonlight is at its brightest. 
  • Sound cleansing: The vibrations are thought to reset and aligns the crystals’s frequency. Using a singing bowl or chimes, gently pass the sound over the crystals.
  • Sage / Palo Santo: Smoke from sage or palo santo wood is a powerful and quick method. Let the bundle or stick burn for a minute, blow out the flames and waft the crystal through the smoke for about 30 seconds.
  • Selenite bowls: Selenite is well known for its amplifying and purifying energy of other crystals. It naturally transmutes negative energy and hence, highly beneficial to cleansing and charging other crystals. Simply place your crystal bracelet or jewellery in the selenite bowl for a few hours, overnight or as long ads you like. I keep the crystal bracelets I use daily in my selenite bowl for continuous cleansing. You may wish to check out the selenite bowls we have in store.
  • A good rule of thumb is to cleanse your crystals once a month or so.

How Do I Set My Intentions?

Setting your intentions with your crystals gives it a dedicated purpose of your choosing, and helps you to get the most of of your new rock friend :) The best time to do this is directly after you've cleaned your stone. The following is a simple way to do so:

  • Simply hold the crystal in your left hand (since the left side is the receiving side). Then visualise and feel into what it would be like if you were to achieve that intention, constantly focusing on the connection between the words and your crystal. Once you have envisioned the purpose, simply conclude the process by expressing your gratitude. 

How Do I Choose Which Hand To Wear My Jewellery?

Your left hand is the receiving side, so wearing the crystal bracelet on your left hand will invite that specific energy into your life. Your right hand is your giving side, so wearing your crystal bracelet on your right hand assists with giving or releasing that energy into the world. Having said that, this is just a general guideline so go with what feels best for you :)
