And, Hand Stamped Symbolic Coin Necklace
And, Hand Stamped Symbolic Coin Necklace
I first was introduced to the Power of “AND” regarding our emotions shortly after the death of my first baby. I was in the midst of grief and clinging to any type of support I could find. A fellow bereaved mama shared an article that has since changed how I view my grief process, and life journey in general.
Simply put, “and” gives us the power & freedom to feel complex emotions simultaneously. It is so much work trying to navigate the mess of all our emotions, especially in grief. One feeling does not dismiss another: “I’m happy for them BUT it makes me sad” changes to “I’m happy for them AND it makes me sad”. “And” is a tool that brings often contradictory feelings together, while staying true to our own personal journey.
You can feel grief AND joy. You can be scared AND hopeful. You can be anxious AND excited. You don’t have to choose.
Wear this necklace as a reminder of the power of “and” in your life, whatever that may mean for you. Dainty & minimal, the perfect jewelry for everyday. This necklace features a petite disc pendant that is hand stamped with the & (ampersand) symbol. This necklace looks beautiful on its own, or layered with your other favourite pieces. Made with care by me, for you to wear your heart.
The author of the article where I first encountered this magic word is Rachel Whalen, over at An Unexpected Family Outing. Read more here.

Hand Stamped
Hand Stamped
Metal stamping is a process where steel shanks with a letter or design on one end (stamps) are hammered into the surface to displace the metal and create an impression.
Please note that I stamp each item by hand with a hammer, so there may be some slight variations. Sometimes not all characters will be perfectly aligned as this is the nature of hand stamping - no two will ever be the same!
