Odd lots are happy little accidents when the color falls out of the normal range. This color won't ever be made again. This luscious green has been in my stash since about 2006! I only have a few rods left so you won't want to let this bead pass you by. <br /><br />Follow the link for the eye bead on the photo above. To place a bid increments are at least $5, but you can bid as high as you'd like. Simply comment your bid and tag the last person you are outbidding. The winner will be the last person to bid at midnight tonight CST! Our current high bidder is @official_womankind for $105. This is the first auction we have done on Instagram so we are excited to offer this special work there!<br /><br />We post the most frequently on Instagram and it's the place where we are the most current on our work. As much as I'd love to, I can't keep up with updating the site so sadly it's behind. You can find our currently available dread beads on the dread bead tab on my Instagram profile and we do new bead drops on Mondays. I will be starting a new job at a local dispensary here in Kansas City, Missouri mid-September so I won't be able to create as much since I'll be working full-time and 10 hour days, but I will continue to post my work on Insta for my fam! <br /><br />We will also be attending <a href="https://summercampfestival.com/" style="color: #007c89; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">Summer Camp Music Festival.</a> August 20-23rd in Chillicothe, Illinois. If any of you are going, we'd love to see you there! Drop us a dm on insta and we can link up there! <br /><br />Thanks so much to everyone who has supported us on our journey! We are so grateful for your love and support! <br /><br />Happy shopping and bidding! <br /><br />Love, light, and highest vibrations,<br /><br />xoxo Genea</div></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table>Third Eye Gypsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00987757940050950312noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3980544869175790930.post-22102474583299219392020-11-24T20:18:00.005-06:002020-11-24T20:18:42.834-06:0030-50% off Black Friday Sales Reminder<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLgBKMpbZrhd_MDUZb9xTVJQ4U8RP4d7nxgM6rEr2MRCfA5V25DSCUsebirvP7N9MdYvqfUHmfbblCttwlHrSnGp-bJvdDfpvJaNHP2QtX9oLdhiVg_Md2rTz5PCgzQjoiktgXb7EhsxA/s800/arwendreadbeads2020.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLgBKMpbZrhd_MDUZb9xTVJQ4U8RP4d7nxgM6rEr2MRCfA5V25DSCUsebirvP7N9MdYvqfUHmfbblCttwlHrSnGp-bJvdDfpvJaNHP2QtX9oLdhiVg_Md2rTz5PCgzQjoiktgXb7EhsxA/w400-h400/arwendreadbeads2020.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUyLl_YUM69H38o93rMr_p22_fapDlBoy6kGgwU1vl-5pwZTVQmyp6wN5F7f6LN7W1Gfn1aHxTRSwnj63B9wCq1SlN-YuINhXPhTTlnlKE7piJNgt6AnnWjtgc2BV3SdTwJR1nSKBc6ZM/s800/etsyaddress20mailer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUyLl_YUM69H38o93rMr_p22_fapDlBoy6kGgwU1vl-5pwZTVQmyp6wN5F7f6LN7W1Gfn1aHxTRSwnj63B9wCq1SlN-YuINhXPhTTlnlKE7piJNgt6AnnWjtgc2BV3SdTwJR1nSKBc6ZM/w400-h400/etsyaddress20mailer.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 26px;">Just a friendly little reminder...</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 26px;"><br /></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;">Hello my loves,<br /><br />We just wanted to remind you about our Black Friday Sales comin' at cha.<br /><br />Our<strong> <a href="http://www.genea.etsy.com/" style="color: #007c89; font-weight: normal; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">Etsy shop</a> will be 50% off for Black Friday and 25% off for Saturday-Monday.</strong> <br /><br />Our Arwen Collective <strong><a href="http://www.arwencollective.com/glass-work" style="color: #007c89; font-weight: normal; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">Glasswork shop</a> will be 30% off for Black Friday and 25% off for Saturday-Monday</strong>. <br /><br />Need to set an alarm for the sale?

Arwen Collective is a collective of different artists and mediums. I am excited to be their featured glass artist creating dread beads and festival jewelry. You can get to our shop directly by visiting the link <a href="https://www.arwencollective.com/glass-work/" style="color: #007c89; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">here.</a> <br /><br />We are offering free shipping to the US and have added the following international countries shipping profiles: Australia, Canada, Germany, and the UK. If you are an international customer that would like to purchase multiple items or don't see your country as a shipping option, please feel free to email us at <a href="http://thirdeyegypsy@gmail.com/" style="color: #007c89; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank">thirdeyegypsy@gmail.com</a> so that we can combine your items and add your countries shipping profile. <br /><br />Now that we are caught up with all of our current work in the shop we will be creating new work. We will be offering our newest work on<a href="https://www.instagram.com/thirdeyegypsys/" style="color: #007c89; text-size-adjust: 100%;" target="_blank"> Instagram </a>first and then adding whatever doesn't sell from the Instagram release to the shop. I will be doing my very best to create as much new work as possible before black Friday. If you have any suggestions on colors, or themes you'd love to see or any past designs you'd love to see, please drop me an email :)<br /><br />LIFE UPDATE<br /><br />We have been a bit behind with our online presence because my dad suddenly passed just a short month ago and Leeloo(my 14 year old Australian Shepherd) had a really bad seizure. Those events shook me to more core and I was an anxious mess. I have since gotten Leeloo on cbd . She is still taking her milk thistle chewable tablets, fish oil, and is on a hormone to help her with incontinence. We believe Leeloo has cushings disease which causes her to: drink more water, urinate more frequently, have skin issues, and be restless. Now that we have taken her off prednisone for her allergies she seems to be doing better with leaking in her sleep. We are hoping that the cbd and fish oil will continue to help with her restless and skin itchiness. I have also been walking her daily in the evening to help her feel calm at night. It has been a huge help and stress relief to both of us. <br /><br />We are looking forward to having a great holiday season with lots of new and exciting work for you all. Thanks so much for continuing to follow along with us on our journey.</p>Third Eye Gypsyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00987757940050950312noreply@blogger.com0Kansas City, MO, USA39.0997265 -94.578566710.789492663821157 -129.7348167 67.409960336178841 -59.422316699999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3980544869175790930.post-25573055211802991282019-03-18T15:10:00.000-05:002019-03-18T15:12:15.409-05:00A new direction for our work and a 20% off Sale March 18-24th in our Etsy Shops<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I will still be creating beads, but mostly to create my jewelry. I will have extra beads and findings that I will be adding into my shop as I create. I have also decided to shift my focus on doing more on <a href="http://www.instagram.com/thirdeyegypsys">Instagram</a> than <a href="http://www.facebook.com/geneabeadslampwork">Facebook.</a> I will be doing DM(direct message) sales of my work through Instagram for my new work and then adding things to my shops. I will be combining my <a href="http://www.3rdeyegypsy.etsy.com/">Etsy jewelry shop</a> to my <a href="http://www.thirdeyegypsys.etsy.com/">Etsy bead shop</a> so it's easier to find my work all in one place :) Sounds a little crazy, but it will all fall into place ;) </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello beautiful souls,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am super stoked to have had the opportunity to collaborate with the gorgeous dreaded Goddess, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/autumnlocs/">Morgin Riley(@autumnlocs)</a>. I had the pleasure of stumbling upon Morgin's beautiful photography awhile back so I couldn't wait to dress up her locs in my glass!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzJdDxbrD3IosS3_fvqHPaxI1vtQEIyI8UNP-KA5tdzxPDj_rOP__uQJho8DDbECrnc6oVLh7S_pE9RFPZKZ7X2k92lLfIQdDiPMu3rTzUPZRMCBzZWgwJxKYomZ_inNUOc-pJSFSD-8g/s1600/morginrileyautumnlocsgeneacrivellothirdeyegypsydreadbeads.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="593" data-original-width="477" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzJdDxbrD3IosS3_fvqHPaxI1vtQEIyI8UNP-KA5tdzxPDj_rOP__uQJho8DDbECrnc6oVLh7S_pE9RFPZKZ7X2k92lLfIQdDiPMu3rTzUPZRMCBzZWgwJxKYomZ_inNUOc-pJSFSD-8g/s640/morginrileyautumnlocsgeneacrivellothirdeyegypsydreadbeads.jpg" width="514" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Aren't her dreadlocks absolutely gorgeous?! Morgin is not only a model and photographer, but she is also a traveling loctician(she does dreadlock maintenance, and installs). <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BtwSZ-MBgYI/">Here</a> you can see our Instagram post with this gorgeous photo courtesy of Morgin, and our dreadlock videos of beads similar to the ones I sent to her. You can snag any of these beads by dming me on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thirdeyegypsys/">my instagram.</a> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Morgin loves autumn hues so I sent her a collection of gorgeous earthy tones and my: rising sun, crescent moon, and evil eye/third eye dreadlock lampwork beads. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Yh8-nVWCS4s/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Yh8-nVWCS4s?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here is our "Rising Sun" dreadlock lampwork bead with gorgeous color shifting raku, and earthy avocado green, and a bright golden sun with a yellow green spiral stamped center. Available <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BtwSZ-MBgYI/">here.</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LWFPAxMrA_w/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LWFPAxMrA_w?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Next I sent Morgin a crescent moon on a base of this gorgeous terracotta with a raku moon, and bubble dots with a thread of silvered ivory. Available <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thirdeyegypsys/">here.</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/l0Xkwtm3_Kk/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/l0Xkwtm3_Kk?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Last, but definitely not least, I sent Morgin one of my evil eye/ third eye dreadlock lampwork beads with an avocado base, raku, and a glittery brown eye. You all know how I love eyes!<a href="https://www.instagram.com/thirdeyegypsys/"> Available here.</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Don't have dreadlocks? These large hole lampwork beads can be worn over a hair wrap, braids, or even used in jewelry making with bead embroidery, macrame, or any other idea you could dream into existence :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You can find more of my dreadlock beads in my Etsy Bead<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/genea?section_id=25339533"> Shop here.</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">How would you use these beads in your creations?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks so much for stopping by!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Creative process behind the creation of lampwork bead making (May 3, 2018)<div style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Hello beautiful souls,</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">I am really excited to be writing this blog for you finally. I feel like it's way overdue and I am honestly surprised it took me this many years to create this for you all. What I have noticed while creating my work is that the general public is not informed about what it is I do along with the process and the other artists that are part of my creations. So the purpose of this blog is to inform you about just what goes into my jewelry creations, beads, and the other art beads I use created by other artists. Often times people will view my work and ask me "Why is it so expensive"? Here I will be breaking it down for you so you will go away with a better understanding of all of the love, creativity, work, and creative energy that goes into my work and other artists work. </span></div>

<div style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">So let's start out with my handmade lampwork beads. All beads start out as colored glass rods like the photo above. Glass rods vary in price from about $12 lb to over $100 lb depending on color, and chemical makeup. Rods heavily laden with silver are up in the $100 range since this is a precious metal and as we know, precious metals are expensive. Certain colors are more expensive as well like pinks because they are made with gold. </span></div>

<div style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"> In order to make beads we need a "handle" to hold the hot glass while we create the bead. We use stainless steel because it is not a conductor of heat. Using this metal allows us to hold the mandrel without burning our fingers. The metal will only retain the heat where it is heated. We use a bead release made from clay and graphite to allow our bead to "stick" to the mandrel while we create, but allow it to be removed when we are done making a bead. If you melt metal to glass it will be bonded for life. We call these flops "plant decorations" since they will remain stuck the the mandrel for life and pretty much have no other use than as a friend for our plants.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Once the beads are created they go into a kiln to stabilize the glass. When we melt the glass we disrupt the molecular structure and put hairline fractures in the glass. Annealing the beads in a kiln removes this stress from the glass and "hardens" them making them durable. The beads anneal at about 950 degrees F and are slowly cooled to room temperature over the course of about 8 hours. </span></div>

<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Here are some of my Wing Ding beads which have been some of my most popular signature beads.

<div style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Here are some of my beads from my humble beginnings in 2004. Did you know that I was not instantly good at making lampwork beads? It was the first artistic talent I had to really "work for". It has taken me YEARS of practice to get where I am not. Those years of successes and failures have made me into the artist you see before you now. I have learned to so much in my many years of glass and I continue to learn each time I light the torch. It is my teacher and my mediation.</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: bold;"> After 15 years of making glass beads I have create some of the most breath taking pieces of art to date. Here is one of my "Seahorse Heart" focals. This bead was a huge feat in glass as the bead is very big and thick and all areas need to be spot heated to avoid cracks and breakage from the glass cooling too quickly. </span></div>

<span style="font-weight: bold;">I like to use a lot of handmade art beads including my own lampwork when I create my mixed-media jewelry. I think of mixed-media jewelry as a collaboration of artists all in one place. Imagine wearing 3 paintings on your body. This is what jewelry is on a smaller scale of wearable art. So let's take a look at a finished piece of jewelry and break it down.</span></div>

<div style="font-size: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Here is a photo of my "Painted Batik" tapestry earrings. Did you know that 4 different artists are represented in this small piece of wearable art? In these earrings are the work of: Woolywire Etc, Staci Louise Originals, Starry Road Studio, and Third Eye Gypsy(Genea Beads). That means 4 hearts, souls, and minds each created a beautiful work of art before it became a collaboration or artists in a finished jewelry design. Does that blow your mind? If not, it totally should! </span></div>
<div style="font-size: 18px; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 18px; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Below I will introduce you to each artist and show just a few photos of their process. I will link their blogs where you can see more in depth process photos just because this blog will be heavily loaded with photos already ;)</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: bold;"> I couldn't find images of Karen's metal process so I chose to show her clay beads. karen creates her own stamp designs along with other stamps to create her awesome beads. First the beads are rolled out of clay, shaped, and stamped. They are then bisque fired(which means put in the kiln as naked clay before they receive glazes).</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Are you feeling the winter blah's? Do your chakras need some cleansing? In need of some self-care and treating yourself?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We've got just the things to get you all charged up and ready to rock it!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Have you seen them? By now I have infiltrated the internet with my newest brain child, the "Flower Lantern" lampwork earrings and art box jewelry box set. If you thought the earrings were badass add in a matching art box and it takes things to the next level. Wanna see what I mean?</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> The small tree is a nice touch, wouldn't you say? Luckily it was a Christmas gift from YEARS ago, but worked so awesome as a photo prop. Ahhh soooo pretty! Each pair of earrings and each box was so exciting to make. It's the icing on the cake to have a matching box specially made for each pair of earrings. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello beautiful souls,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Wow, has it been a minute or what?! *Dusts off blog* Well, as you may know things around the internet have changed tremendously over the years and it's hard for we artists to know just where to post so that you lovely readers can find us easily. So from what I gather Blogger is one of those spots. I will be doing updates from this blog again since I miss all of your lovely faces and really do desire to reach the people that make what I do possible :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If you missed out I have created a series called my "TalisMAN Series" where I have designed some more masculine designs(which can be worn by anyone regardless of their gender) since I thought the men's style jewelry was really lacking. So let's take a look... </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I'll be adding more jewelry to the new page over the next day or so and then more lampwork beads. It will be a little bit longer on the new beads since I need to start from scratch on those. The other beads and jewelry I already have all edited and descriptions written so those will go first. I can't wait to catch up!!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello beautiful souls,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ok, I'm not building a house, but it kinda feels like it building a webpage. I have much to learn for sure. Not all of my buttons get you to the exact spot they are supposed to, but some of the shop parts link correctly. There are just SO many things to do! Most of us have used some sort of blog platform like Blogger or Wordpress and also places to sell our items like Etsy. Well I will tell ya these fancy websites don't have some of those little extra flairs we are used to using. It will just take a little getting used to figuring out where things are. I got held up for a good long while when my findings banner ended up on every page and my footer was in the middle of my page. YIKES! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglt5nPhCyM0l7pEHUZf1g8Qk4IPsSQxKQscDxk1IJ78rxx8kYSzesQeo75Aoux3kdRd-Cp8mZgSYjy0OI1GPxt_xVZJRFEkmmg59NxRB1m2wrwrW2l19G7woN3u1n50fv52Mucf-UXzGg/s1600/headpinpage.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglt5nPhCyM0l7pEHUZf1g8Qk4IPsSQxKQscDxk1IJ78rxx8kYSzesQeo75Aoux3kdRd-Cp8mZgSYjy0OI1GPxt_xVZJRFEkmmg59NxRB1m2wrwrW2l19G7woN3u1n50fv52Mucf-UXzGg/s640/headpinpage.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is the one that got me stuck. I had to add another product page for my glass headpins and findings. For some reason the shop now button on the front page takes you to the lampwork page. I even checked the findings page and it says it's linked up. There must be another spot I need to change. So bare with me. I'm working on it. Web design is definitely not my skill lol. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I will also take this moment to apologize in advance if I miss your messages or e-mails to me or we have some kink in the new page. This is all a learning curve. Mostly, it's been pretty good, but I do get stuck from time to time. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I made some bad ass new boxes to send out your goodies. I made my very <a href="https://www.thirdeyegypsy.com/single-post/2018/03/28/Wrap-it-up-in-cosmic-stardust">first blog post </a>on the new page you can view here to take a peek. I will be featuring the process on the<a href="https://artistcellar.com/blogs/news"> Artistcellar blog</a> for my post coming up, so keep an eye out for that. This is how my new blog looks so far. It's crazy I had to even add a comments tab since the blog didn't come with one. Weird.. You will also notice there is a newsletter sign up twice on the page. I like the way it looks on the pink blog portion better than down below, but that bottom part is on all of my pages and if I delete it on the blog I think it will get deleted on all the pages so there will just have to be two for now. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Oh and you may have noticed the annoying gray spot in my photos. It's been there for awhile. I have no idea what happened to my camera. It just appeared one day. It's not the lens. I did some searching and it sound like I have damaged pixels in my camera. It's old and I am SO ready for a new camera, but I'll have to save for a new one. I really want a DSLR. You know, one of those fancy pants, big girl camera's that take photos so luscious it feels like you can lick them through the screen. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello beautiful souls!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It's time! It's LIVE! Yes, my new website is LIVE! I was excited to get most of it built the other day. So the base of the site is all built and I will be busily loading up my shop! HOORAY!! Below is a little video I took while I was building my site, but you can see my webpage<a href="http://www.thirdeyegypsy.com/"> www.thirdeyegypsy.com </a>. So what's the most exciting thing about the new webpage? NEW WORK!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> I have SO much art, jewelry, and beads that are NOT online yet. You may have caught a glimpse of them when I did a 3 day sale, but after that they were not available. I was not going to keep adding things to my Etsy shop when they were not getting the views they deserved. As you know Etsy has changed a lot over the years. I was not really happy with the changes and how things were for the sellers. The site was no longer doing things in our best interest and a lot of us dropped off. We make our livings selling our art and it's hard to make a living if no one is seeing your work. This is the whole reason a webpage is so important. If you sell on third party sites THEY get all the views. Not you. WE are the ones that make these sites money and allow them to make millions on us. So it's only fair that WE get to benefit from OUR hard work, but enough about that... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am just SO excited to be loading up my new shop! I even think about it while I fall asleep. I was even dreaming about it. I had a dream last night about having a few people helping me assemble my jewelry for my website. I was thinking about how they were going to add the pendants onto my finsihed sari silk necklaces, but then realized they would have to open the jump rings to put the pendants on when they sold and realized the snag there. Lol! You can see where my mind has been! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am JUST SO EXCITED about all of the ideas I have in store for my work. Some ideas I got a chance to test out before I got ill and busy with my side projects, and others that are in the dream state while I build funds and start getting new equipment and supplies. The upgrades I will need for all of the new equipment will be expensive and I will need to tackle them bit by bit to really be able to bring my body of work to my new ideas, but I can tell you it will be like nothing you have ever seen! I can't wait to be creating all of these new things. The expanded business from my new webpage will allow me to get these new supplies and equipment. I couldn't be more excited!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Well I am going to hop off here and get to it! You can check my webpage and see items pop into my shop! I can assure you I am just as excited as you to watch them go live. Let's count how many times I said "excited" in this blog post. Lol. Guess I need some new words ;) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">See you all soon!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello beautiful souls,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I've missed you so much. I have thought about you often. It's been a month since I posted to the day. Ironic that I just finally got a chance to post a month exactly from my last post? At any rate I am so glad to tell you what's been going on in my life. To start out I was tying up loose ends on some other projects which kept me from being here and then the last and most dramatic part that I will be telling you about in full detail below. So to start I was finishing up a tutorial I had to create for Canvas Corp Brands(7 gypsies, canvas corp brands, and tattered angels). I was on the design team for a hot second before I had to leave the team for personal reasons. I agreed to do a tutorial for them before leaving the team on one of my bad ass jewelry displays I called "Seed of Gaia" that you can see <a href="http://blog.canvascorpbrands.com/wall-art-with-key-hangers-seed-of-gaia/">here. </a></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I also blog for <a href="https://artistcellar.com/">Artistcellar</a> and I am ashamed I have not posted here more letting you know where to check it out because I love Artistcellar and Lisa(the co-owner) very much. They have the most incredible, high quality stencils that is use in pretty much ALL of my artwork. I was busy making these projects for Artistcellar which you can view the details about them on the blog<a href="https://artistcellar.com/blogs/news"> here.</a></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Here are the pieces I created for Artistcellar. This pisces fish piece I did for my friend, Dodie for her birthday. She is a pisces(Duh. Lol!), and the planet in the background is Neptune which is the planet for the pisces zodiac sign. You can read about the process on the Artistcellar blog(link above). </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">My latest piece for Artistcellar is this gift bag and you can read all about it this coming monday. It turned out so pretty I hung it on my wall, lol. Who knew. I was feeling a bit short on creativity so I did a "simple project" for my blog because I had just come out of my sickness(more on that below).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was also finishing up a special custom project for my friend Daniel Donovan for<a href="https://www.facebook.com/ReKinection/"> Rekinection</a> . We did a trade for <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/419198698499841/">shamanic breathwork sessions(his 5 part elemental series,</a> his incredible music((he mixes binaural beats, animal sounds, and chakra opening beats with electronic music)), his books, and his digital art) for a set of 7 chakra necklaces. I am only showing you a teaser pic of ONE of the necklaces because I want to blog about that whole process later :P I can't say enough incredible things about Daniel so if you happen to have the pleasure of attending his breathwork sessions or a set at ecstatic dance, I would highly recommend it. They have also purchased land in Kansas by Lawrence where they will be doing retreats and so many other wonderful things!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ok so wow... where to begin. I will have 2 gross photos below so if you want avoid those, this is your warning here. I edited the least nasty looking ones, but I wanted you to experience my woes so that's why I am including them. So I started out with what I thought was a lady infection and treated that homeopathically ony to find out that I was treating the WRONG kind of infection and wound up at the local clinic with antibiotics, BUT you MUST experience my paint and agony over the last week and a half to truey appreciate the healing. So to begin I fought the demons with: coconut oil and teatree oil, raw garlic, and then finally<a href="https://www.globalhealingcenter.com/oregatrex-oregano-oil-blend.html"> oregratrex</a>(oregano oil, peppermint oil, and cayenne organic essential oils). The worse symptom than the itch was the incessant burning while urinating. It was awful. At first I thought maybe it was the start of a uti, but the pain was different. That part was pretty taxing. Christian was taking the Oregatrex to for digestive things to kill off any bad gut bacteria, but oregano is one of the most POTENT AND BAD ASS essential oils to fight of a run of things. So in my quest to heal myself I went to the oregano oil and began taking it as directed. Oregano oil kills of candida and since that is what I thought I had in the downstairs department I began taking that, what I didn't expect was the aftermath. So before you go bashing natural remedies or this company please listen. Herbs are VERY POWERFUL and they are not to be taken lightly. I took it upon myself to treat myself homeopathically from advice from other friends, and reading the internet for answers to heal myself. Now, had I had a chance to go to a homeopathic doctor or herbalist for treatment I would have, but ya know how things go when your funds are low. So if you do decide to take oregano oil BE CAREFUL. Oregratrex is VERY POWERFUL and the company makes the most potent and incredible products. So in the mess of my original problem I experienced <a href="https://www.thecandidadiet.com/candida-die-off-symptoms/">rapid candida die off symptoms</a> called "herxiheimer reaction". So what does this entail? Well here is the list: </span></div>
<ul style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; letter-spacing: -0.5px; margin: 0px 0px 30px 40px; padding: 0px;">

</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Oh and that was on top of the lady problem, so yes, I felt like I was fucking dying to put it lightly. It was AWFUL. Imagine having 3 of the worst cold and flus you have ever had on top of a lady problem and burning while you pee. Along with that I had a cut in my lip that turned my whole bottom lip into sores along with: canker sores and inflamed taste buds(these are those photos I was warning you about). I could barely eat. I didn't eat much at first because I was fearful to feed the candida that I had in my body. I was deathly ill for days. I only took the oregano oil for 2 days since I could not tolerate anymore or feeling bad. I finally gave up and called the local clinic. I am wholeheartedly against antibiotics as they kill EVERYTHING good and bad bacteria including gut flora which is YOUR LIFE. So if you didn't know this, protect your gut. It is what keeps your whole body in running order and I can't tell you enough how much I have learned about this and how very important it is to have your gut in working order. I was given a shot in the arm of antibiotics along with a pill prescription I just finished the other day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">**GROSS PHOTOS BELOW. SCROLL PAST IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE THEM**</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This was my lip during the infected process. FUCKING GROSS. It got worse than this, so bad I had to peel the scab off and pour hydrogen peroxide on it to kill the nasty infection growing on my lips from God knows what. The nurse practioner I saw didn't seem to be phased by my poor lip and just told me to put coconut oil on it because it was "healing". Thank God Christian suggested the hydrogen peroxide! My lip is almost healed and where it may look "bad" this is good. People, it was BAD... really BAD. So bad it was trying to eat food between 2 wet sticky scabs. *barf* Yes, I paint vivid pictures. I want you to understand just how awful it was. It was terrible and I wouldn't wish what I experienced on my worst enemy...</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Bad ass news #1- I got a new website! Yep! A REAL WEBSITE! The one I have always wanted and needed for, oh I dunno. YEARS! I am now the proud owner of not one, but TWO DOMAINS- <a href="http://www.geneabeads.com/">www.geneabeads.com</a>, and my newest <a href="http://www.thirdeyegypsy.com/">www.thirdeyegypsy.com</a>!!!! Not only do I finally have a new domain for my new business name, but I have a builder! Yes!! I signed up for Wix.com for the year and I will be building my website over the next however many days it takes to get it done. So wish me luck! I heard it was easy, but this is not my talent. Unfortunately, when I went to check out I picked some template and that is the one I got stuck with. So I have to go through each build page and replace it with my things. So its' kinda like taking someones house and having to move their shit out so you can move your stuff in. Lol. I do wish I could publish the page as I work on it, but since the template I picked was a succulent website I can't have you on there trying to buy products from me which I don't actually stock ;) So wish me luck!! What does this mean for you all? SHOP UPDATES. LOTS OF THEM. I have SO much inventory that is NOT online. The best part, NO MORE ETSY. I am grateful for Etsy being there in the beginning, but it is not anywhere what it used to be and it is not out for the sellers best interest. So I may leave it up later and clear out what I have on there and leave only new things on my webpage. Not sure yet. My Etsy is off because I didn't pay my bill so meh. I'll be busy working on my page and then decide how I want to manage that. I'll give you a little sneaky peeky of what I got done before I was deathly ill. I didn't get very far at all, but you will get the idea. I'm excited! This website is so powerful and it's everything I could have ever dreamed of! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Ooo so pretty! It's all soft and cosmic :D I have a long way to go though, but this will be awesome!! I also forgot to mention I will be taking a FREE CLASS at the local college on using social media and business stuff. I was lucky enough to apply and get a free spot! So I will start those classes April 10th! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> Ok, I bawled like a bitch when the loaded up my old baby. I did hug and kiss my car too and tell it how much I loved and appreciated it and all of the journeys we had together. The phoenix rises up from the ashes and together we made it. Thinking about it makes my eyes well up....</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> I am so floored by this car. It was a GIFT... A GIFT! Given to me by my soul family. My family of vegan burners(burners are people that attend burning man and it's many regional events). My tribe. I was just beyond words. This was their old car. They no longer needed it and knew what we had been through with our car. They knew we just needed a little boost and so they gave us their hands and lifted us up. This means so much to me. I know you all can understand just how bit this is. I feel so relieved to catch a break. To not have to worry about my old car breaking down on me the million times it did. We can drive this baby hours away instead of just being stuck in the city. It's old, but she's solid. She has a little oil leak and the front end got hit with no internal damage(not shown in photos), but she's solid. I can't wait to take her on some trips to see our friends. So mad love and thank you to our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TribalRootsTribe/">Tribal Roots Tribe.</a> You are the best family we could have ever chosen for ourselves, and we love you so much!!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Christian was finally diagnosed!! Yes, you heard that right! We had the fortune of seeing the most incredible man named,<a href="http://ronlogan.info/ronlogan/About_Me.html"> Ron Logan<span id="goog_1877656444"></span><span id="goog_1877656445"></span>.</a> He has been doing iridology for the last 30 years and is a master herbalist. He is 85 and you'd think he was 20! He is an ascended spirit for sure! He so fo fully of knowledge. Not only that, but he's so funny and so enthustiac! I learned more from him in 2 hours about health, wellness, and all of that business than I have learned in years. He just connected all of the dots. Everything that is going on in the body can be see in the eyes! Ron showed us one of his patients that had blueish eyes with lots of yellow around the centers. The yellow is sulfur! This man ended up having pancreatic cancer which didn't show up on the test along with another very deadly disease. Ron was able to diagnose and heal him! I'm a believer for sure! So about Christian's diagnosis... he has leaky gut for sure. This is the main problem. He was recommended a colon cleanse by <a href="https://www.naturessunshine.com/us/">natures sunshine.</a> This brand is rigorously tested for supreme quality. He also will be taking a very powerful digestive enzyme to help him heal and absorb nutrients properly. So that is where we are starting and we will tackle the other things after. So he will be taking these other things next: dulse liquid, thyroid support, mind max, and krill oil. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The starred things are the important things that need to be addressed first. I am so relieved to finally know what is wrong and have the proper tool to heal it instead of us taking shots in the dark when all of the other medical testing has failed us. Oh and the other crazy thing... CHRISTIAN ACTUALLY HAS BLUE EYES! Yep, crazy right?! So as he heals his eyes will actually start to turn blue! I will be taking macro photos of his eyes so we can all see them change. He will actually start to see change within just a few months! He has the most beautiful brown eyes, right now. I always complimented him on the "fire" that is around the middle(which is actually showing his digestive problems. The center ring around the pupil shows your digestive health. You can see this in the diagram above). Ron looked in Christian's eyes and then gave him a type of magnifying lense so that he could see his eye while Ron explained what he was looking at. It was SO COOL! It really made me want to just spend all of my days learning everything Ron knows and getting into iridology! I have always been obsessed with eyes my entire life. That and he's a master herbalist and you all know how that intrigues me as well ;) We will see where life takes me ;) For now I will be sticking to my glass and mixed-media and allow the universe to lead me in other areas as it sees fit. I trust the path on which I am on and I couldn't be more excited for this year and all of the abundance to follow! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Just look at those beautiful firey eyes. I will be sad to see the fire quenched out by the water that will appear in his BLUE EYES, but I will be happy that he will be healed. I am so curious to see his eyes change. It makes me wonder if my eyes are truely brown or if I have color hiding underneath as well. I will have to keep you all posted as soon as I get to go see Ron myself. </span></div>
