Q: What are Waist Beads?

  

A:

Waistbeads are an ancient traditional body jewelry and a practice of adornment. Similar to necklaces or bracelets, except they’re worn around the waist or just above the hips.

Commonly referred to as belly beads or waistbands. Waistbeads are worn by females of all ages from children to grandmothers and all sizes. Worn regularly they become an extension of yourself, a secret, seen only by you and your lover. In some cultures, they are a symbol of a woman’s confidence in her body and her sexuality. They are given as gifts for initiations, rites of passage, to women about to marry, to pregnant women for protection and health. This ancient adornment practice is a great way to celebrate your femininity, milestones, and enhance personal transformation, and affirm creativity and sexuality.

 

Q: What are energetic waistbeads?

A:

The art of adorning Energetic Waistbeads is a purposeful intention toward spiritual growth and an excellent tool for women to feel more powerful...confidence in their body...

embrace their femininity, sexuality and beauty.

Energetic waistbeads subtly keeps you mindful of your conscious state of being, emotions, womanhood, healing phase, spiritual journey, and body awareness...Giving you protection, strength and courage where needed. The reason for wearing any strand is specific to the person wearing it. 

My waist beads are handmade and customized using genuine gemstones and crystals that resonate with the wearer. No two are made exactly alike just similar in style. With addition of gemstones and crystals, waist beads take on healing or vibrational qualities. Depending on specific needs to enhance (i.e. strength, inner peace, balancing), various semi-precious stones can be included in the design of your waist beads. I enjoy making waist beads in all different colors, styles, sizes; there's something special for every woman.

Q: How do I measure myself for Waistbeads?

 

A:

Depending on where you want your beads to fall, you can measure yourself above your navel, just at your navel, or right above your hips. Use a flexible measuring tape and measure against your bare skin; Stand straight and DON’T suck in your stomach. 

If you do not have a tape measure, you may improvise with some string and a ruler. Wrap the string around your waist, cut where it meets. Lay the string flat and measure against a ruler.

Choose your size accordingly. Custom waist beads are made using a two inch extension chain for versatility 

 

 

 Q: What materials do you use in your Waist beads?

A:

My Waistbeads belly beads and other jewels are made with  genuine crystals and gemstones, 24kt Gold plated beads, Chinese glass beads, Swarovski Crystals, colorful glass beads, durable chain, and high quality wire for  lasting luxurious adornments. Using gold plated lobster clasps to close gold-toned sets.

 

I mainly use Czech glass sead beads, ToHo beds, Japanese Miyuki beads, and various other high quality beads. All of the beads I use are glass, ceramic, genuine stone, and semi-precious stone beads and pewter charms. Mindful of sensitivities, I limited the amount of metals in my waistbeads. I’m always learning new techniques, working on new pieces and materials to improve my quality of craft. 

 

 Q: Are your waistbeads permanent or removable?

 

A: Removable. With the crystals incorporated I wanted the option to put them on and take them off whenever you like without damaging them. Some days you may find yourself drawn to the energy of another crystal, simply switch your waistbeads as you do your outfits.

But! I do have Permanent waistbeads available with beads only
