Entry description
My happy harmony hearts take inspiration from my happy place, Scotland, where I feel in harmony with myself. Each piece is adorned with crystals representing harmony: green aventurine, rose quartz, and Scottish amethyst. They capture diverse Scottish textures including Aberdeenshire driftwood and are inspired by the Outlander Series landscapes of Lallybroch and the Isle of Skye fairy pools. Set in my favourite heart shape, they bring Scottish harmony and happiness to lovers of crystals.
