In the Etsy store, we’ve put together some sweet little trios of tokens that come in a gold gift bag.  These gift bags are perfect as party favors,  house warming gifts, pick-me-ups for a friend, congratulations and so much more.

Over on Etsy  we also offer limited production engraved river rocks.  These are overstock of custom designs that we’ve created over the years that are not in our regular stock inventory.  From graphics like pumpkins to inspirational sayings, you never know if something is going to be the perfect stone you’ve been looking for!  Hurry though, once these sell out, they are gone forever.

We also have one-of-a-kind glass stones, like this ‘Hand Over My Heart’ imprinted glass stone.

So, hurry on over and read our 5 Star reviews and make us one of your favorite shops!

 

Getting Creative With Our Forever Family Blessing Coin

Posted on by CourageInStone

I have a friend who sells Origami Owl Lockets.  The company tagline is “Every Locket Tells a Story…What’s Yours?”  The idea is that you create a locket with charms or a necklace with dangles that represents your life.  I’ve created several themed necklaces (3 in fact…I’m kinda addicted) and I love them!

We recently designed a Blessing Coin with an adoption theme.  We call it our Forever Family Blessing Coin and it represents my own personal journey to adopt our son.  Turns out, it also works well with the Origami Owl dangles and a few of my adoptive mama friends thought so too!  The Happiness, Hope, Love, Tree of Life, initials, Karma, and Heart dangles all tie-in to this theme of adoption.  We all created our own special version of what adoption means to us and they are each just slightly different from the other.  I love that.

I also love that our products can be so versatile.  Whether you use our tokens as a necklace charm, a talismans for your pocket, a physical daily reminder of positive thoughts or just a pretty desk sitter – there is no limit to the energy they can create if you give them the power.

Tell us how you’ve created something with a token or stone.  We want to see!

  • Red Glass Pocket Hearts
  • Inexpensive frame from Dollar Store or craft store

I spruced up a plain black frame by gluing hearts on each of the corners.  I found a frame with a cut-out of a heart in the center which I glued a sheet of black and white scrapbook paper to.  I then glued on a few hearts creating a perfect Valentine’s Day gift!

Fall is the perfect time to decorate your sweaters and jackets with fun and inspirational pins that are super easy to make! ~Natalie

What you need:

  • Glass Spirit Stones or pewter pocket tokens from www.CourageInStone.com
  • Jewelry pins with clutch backing found at your local craft store.
  • Craft glue
  1. Choose Pocket tokens or Glass Spirit Stones with a special
    meaning to you. I made a set with Protection Angel, Angel shape and Grace
    Cross. I also made one with a ‘Worry Less’ Glass Spirit Stone.
  2. Glue the token to the jewelry pin!  Now you’re ready to pin to your
    sweater, jacket or even a purse or book bag.

How easy is that?!

Barrettes…not just for kids!

It is so fast and easy to turn our pewter pocket tokens into
a classy barrette. I absolutely love these. ~Natalie

What You Need:

  1. Choose several pewter pocket tokens.  I lined up a row of five pewter hearts and three sand dollars for my two barrettes.
  2. Glue the pocket tokens to the barrette.
  3. Wear it!  (Be sure to wait for the glue to dry before
    putting it on!)

Make these for yourself, or make a grouping of three for a unique, practical gift!

    Stones or Marble Word Stones from www.courageinstone.com.

Step 3: Enjoy your magnet on fridge or filing cabinet.
