Handcrafted jewelry, designed to diffuse essential oils. Unique, in that the whole piece is a personal diffuser. Everything from the leather used to string the components to the components themselves. Hand drilled matte gems stones, sea urchin spines, rudraksha seeds, sea shells, artisan clays/leather backed pendants, and so much more. All holding and diffusing oil at varying rates. I do a great amount of research on porosity to find the most unique and beautiful element to adorn each piece. I truly consider each piece of jewelry investment in one's emotional and physical wellbeing.
About a year ago, in an effort to address many health issues, we switch to chemical free and organic products. Eureka! I discovered essential oils. They change our whole world. In search of a way to express, share and benefit from my oils, exponentially. I bought several different necklaces. I was so disappointed. The barley held oil for even a couple of hours. I couldn't adjust the length for the aroma. They were all so generic. Silver chain with a pendant including some cheap felt or even worse, wax covered lava stone. So….I decided to make my own, uniquely expressing me!
LIZ MONTGOMERY
I grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
spent most of my adult life in Barrington,
IL and finally settled down in Southeast,
Florida. I have been retired for many
years now and live on a small island in
the Florida Keys. I was surrounded by so
much natural beauty that I turned to
photography in order to capture some of
it. A substantial part of my family is located
in the Spokane area and as such I vacation
here for four months of the year. I became
attracted to some of the unique photo-
graphic opportunities found only in the
Inland Northwest.
My work has been published in several
newspapers. My photograph was on book
cover. I have held several solo exhibits at the
Marathon, FL Theater. An image of mine
has been on the 2015-2016 brochure for the
Theater. The Shady Palm Art Gallery in
Marathon, Fl is where I have my work.
My Mission: To reveal God's beauty through
my lens for all to enjoy.
I am currently working
in the photo canvas medium. Landscapes
flowers and landmarks dominate my canvases
presently. I also have a sub-specialty in photo
note cards.
