my intentions & process
crafting adornments is a sacred practice that I hold close to my heart.
every design is made with heavy inspiration and homage to the intricate structures within nature as well as the beings linked to them in folklore/mythology. which is where the elemental part of elemental cloak comes into play.
before I ever started creating my own pieces I would enchant the jewelry/scarves I had. Instilling each one with a purpose and intention. my “accessories” were no longer something I would just throw on to level up my fit but to enhance my energy and essence overall. an aid that walked through the day with me. so naturally when I started crafting my pieces that was something important I wanted to incorporate. something I always call in is protection for the wearer. that is the “cloak” part of elemental cloak. these pieces are not just laying but guarding parts of your body/self.
I believe you transfer energy through your hands so I don’t craft when I’m in a clouded state of mind. before beginning any order I cleanse my space, my hands, and bless the yarn. I then channel whatever intentions you desire into your piece, through meditation, visualization, and prayer.
