https://www.etsy.com/shop/HazelwoodJewelrybyR?ref=si_shop  Very cool!  I'm discovering lots of neat things about etsy!  Its like having your own store---without having to work in it, and non of that over head.  I have about 8 items up to get started.  Exciting!  :-)  More later--etsy is awesome, but its taken me all week to figure it out!  I'm really NOT  a techy, as you can probably tell from this blog, lol.

Amber and Hazelwood hand-knotted baby teething/eczema/reflux necklace

Amber and Hazelwood hand-knotted baby teething/eczema/reflux necklace.  Last night's project--I hand-tied these gorgeous butter-colored amber with some hazelwood for my 10 mth old baby.  I really like it, but I did make it too long--live and learn.....yes, baby loves being a model!  sorry, she's too wiggly to get necklace straight.  The purple is supposed to be in the middle.  Necklace is even, baby is wiggly!  I love this amber, but it does seem a little big maybe, for a baby?  opinions, please!   I think I'll do more of a pattern, and less of a center piece next time as well.  

cats eye glass $10

glass and riverstone.  Rose in middle is acrylic  Could be done in all pink, or other colors $10

black and hazelwood.  This is a very popular color combination $10

My daughter is having a homeschool playdate today, and her good friend is her to play, so while they were eating their gluten-free cookies, I thought I'd get a free opinion out of her, and she declared this pattern her favorite (of the ones she saw.)  This is small-bead Hazelwood which means it is narrower, but still the same length as large hazelwood.  The producers of Hazel wood advertise it as being more appropriate for children, and I think that makes sense--a smaller piece of wood is going to absorb less acid, and children undoubtably have less acid in their systems.  This piece also has glass clear and purple.  We could do this in a necklace, or bracelet, or stay on baby anklet, and a pendant could be added upon request.  Also, I'm trying to figure out etsy!  Sooooo, etsy store is coming!!!  And I'm on twitter now.....is that redundant of Fb?  I don't know....I'll figure it all out.....eventually.  Time to put babies down for naps--see you later--!
Wear your Hazelwood!

Our original invention-the Angel Baby no-slip Anket

If you've had a baby of your own, or you been around babies a lot, you've noticed how hard it is to keep their socks on.  They are always slipping off and getting lost!  When our last baby was born, I wanted to put Hazelwood on her for her constant spitting up (probably reflux), but she was so tiny, I didn't feel comfortable putting a necklace on her, even though in tests the break-away ring (which breaks if caught on something)worked perfectly.  I wanted to see if I could come up with a practical alternative.  I invented the Baby no-slip anklet, because it is impossible to keep a sock on an infant, let alone a normal anklet.   The no-slip anklet has velcro for a secure fit, soldered rings for sturdiness, and extra thick cable.  They come in many varieties, 2-3 rows, with or without amber.  We're not sure if it works well for teething, since its not placed near the teeth, but many of our clients think its worth a shot.  It does seem to help some babies with reflux---If the problem stems from excess acid, Hazelwood will help.  If the issue is something else, it may not help. Our baby hardly ever spits up anymore, so it was a MAJOR IMPROVEMENT.  Our last 2 babies(who did NOT have hazelwood-because I didn't know about it yet) spit up ALOT till around 2 years of age.  It was crazy! 

 No-slip Baby Anklet, this is the back of one with lace.

Our original no-slip baby anklet-.  This one has "rainbow" amber between large hazelwood beads--Normally we use small hazelwood beads, and any color or colors can go between.
