Our annual trip to the Denver Gem Show is more than an opportunity to discover beautiful crystals and treasures from around the world. It is a chance to connect with the mountains, fellow crystal lovers from all over the world, and with the people who make this community so meaningful to us. This year brought all of these things together: gorgeous crystals, new discoveries, familiar faces, and more heartfelt connections.

Kindness Crystals
Whenever we travel, we love leaving crystals behind to be discovered, trusting they will find their way to the right person and bring a little joy, comfort, or peace into their day. As we made our way to Denver, we left Kindness Crystals along the way, each with a special message and an invitation to keep it, carry it with you, or pass it along to someone who could use a little kindness.
Gem Show Bracelet: Higher Ground
We continued our tradition of creating a special crystal beaded bracelet inspired by the gem show, and this year, we invited our community to be part of the process by helping us choose its name! Inspired by exploration, connection, and finding your way, this year's bracelet is a reminder to stay grounded in your purpose while staying open to where the journey leads. We incorporated the beauty of Astrophyllite, Golden Tiger Eye, Blue Tiger Eye, and Citrine to encourage transformation, abundance, confidence, and purposeful action.
One of our favorite traditions is building a crystal grid at the show. This year we were called to set intentions for healing, hope, and connection for our community. We created a crystal grid in the Rocky Mountains, grounding our intentions into the transformative frequencies of Mother Earth, Echo Lake, and the surrounding wildlife. As we offered our intentions to the land, we also held space for gratitude, honoring Mother Earth not only for all that she gives us, but for the ways we can give back and walk in greater harmony with the natural world and with each other.
On our way to build the grid, we were gifted with a beautiful encounter with a female moose. Sometimes animals are meaningful reminders from our loved ones who've passed to offer a sense of connection or reassurance. The strength and resilience of this moose felt especially significant as we carried our intentions up the mountain. Her resilience and protective nature was a validation of what were are creating, holding our intentions with purpose, respect for Mother Earth, and trusting in our inner vision and Divine guidance.
We met so many wonderful people from around the world, each with their own stories, knowledge, and experiences to share. Creating meaningful connections is something we believe builds our strong, supportive community.
We are especially grateful for the people who made this trip so meaningful! Connecting with people from across the world reminded us how many people share a genuine appreciation for beauty and energy of crystals. Thank you to everyone who followed along in stories and joined our Lives! Be sure to also check out our Denver Gem Show highlight over on highlight part 1 and part 2 for all the behind-the-scenes! We're so excited to share all our new finds with you once our pallets arrive - each piece was chosen with intention and guided by the energy of connection and inspiration!
