Friday Finds, Dance Style: Ballerina Bears

The last Saturday of every July is National Dance Day, which makes it tomorrow! The closest Six Flags is quite a ride from here to participate in the group numbers choreographed by the So You Think You Can Dance crew, so I'll be celebrating at home. Find out how by reading yesterday's It's the Sparkles and the Shimmies, a guest post by belly dancer AJ Reardon.

Like many little girls, I dreamed ephemerally of being a ballerina when I grew up. I took tap, jazz and ballet as a child, but my interests twirled onto other artistic things in middle school. Feeling nostalgic, today I slipped on my ballet slippers and pirouetted around Etsy's stage. These adorable ballerina bears joined me in the limelight.

    Indeed I do, Marlene! They're all amazing dancers, but Melanie is my favorite, too! She's adorably unique. Marko is a close second, wow.

The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
