Behind {lucky me} Jewelry

The Story Behind {lucky me}

Well, hello!  My name is Jacqueline, founder of {lucky me}.  I’m a mom who somehow managed to find a job working from home, where I get to spend my days with my two young, wonderful boys.  Sure, some days can totally feel like a juggling act, but even on the craziest of days, I still think to myself, “Lucky me… I’m blessed to soak up every minute with my kiddos during these memorable ‘first years,’ and to be able to provide for them at the same time” - for that I'm so grateful!

I’ve realized my gratitude has only brought more things to my life to be happy about!  I do believe in the law of attraction, and that the frequencies of our thoughts and feelings can attract back circumstances of the same frequency, (plus, it just feels better to be positive anyway!), and for me, one of the most recent positive experiences was discovering a passion for creating jewelry... It's an awesome feeling to find something you love doing!

I had become drawn to the oh-so-cool metaphysical and “healing” properties of natural gemstones and crystals.  Okay, some of you might be wondering, “How the heck can a rock help us to feel better?”  Legit question!  Well, just as we are all essentially made of energy that radiates in various patterns, so do natural gemstones (such as all the birthstones and even the gold in the pieces in my shop!).  Gemstones emit a pure, constant frequency and pattern.  Different types of gemstones hold a different pattern, but each is still utterly consistent in itself.  So, when OUR energy patterns become disrupted (like if we’re sick, for example, our pattern is imbalanced), the raw energy of a given gemstone can help to align our own.  I find that super cool!  

And, you know what, even if you’re not totally on board with all that, you can’t argue that these little beauts make for a pret-ty sweet accessory! ;-)

When I decided to start this jewelry line, I found the name {lucky me} to be so fitting – it’s a feeling I get to experience in my own life, and has turned into something tangible that I now get to share with each of you!
