	&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Our Products&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beaded Energy makes handmade necklaces, bracelets &amp;#38; earrings.  Stones are hand selected to determine the best match for each creation.  Limited quantites of each design (some-of-a-kind) are sold while others are offered as one-of-a-kind creations.  Ultimately, no 2 pieces will be alike simply because natural stones are used.  Please note that your actual jewelry item may vary slightly from the picture shown on the website due to natural variations of the stones used.  We also have a &lt;a href=&quot;http://beadedenergy.myshopify.com/pages/customer-service&quot;&gt;100% satisfaction guarantee&lt;/a&gt; in the event you receive your jewelry item and would like to return it.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Custom work is welcomed!  See a piece of jewelry in a magazine and want one that looks similar? Have a special occasion but you just can&#8217;t find that perfect jewelry accompaniment? Do you want to get that perfect gift but are working within a specific budget? Let us help you design a beautiful and energy filled piece to fit your needs.  Please &lt;a href=&quot;http://beadedenergy.myshopify.com/pages/contact-us&quot;&gt;contact us&lt;/a&gt; if you are interested in creating a custom piece of jewelry!&lt;/ul&gt;     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Difference&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course we only use all natural stones, sterling silver, fine silver or gold filled componenets.  Of course our jewelry is high-quality and affordable&amp;#8230;but every other jewelry artisan website will say the same thing.  So in our minds, this isn&amp;#8217;t what makes us different.&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Buying a Beaded Energy creation is an experience.  Why?  Because our jewelry items combine the natural energies of the stones with a light hearted story to bring the piece to life.  This adds character and uniqueness to each creation&amp;#8230;and we think this makes for an enjoyable shopping experience.  Our creations are the shoe equivalent of the stiletto high heel&amp;#8230;you instantly feel transformed the minute you put them on!  So, ask yourself&amp;#8230;&amp;#8221;Who do you want to be today&amp;#8221;?  Marilyn?  Jackie-O?  Audrey Hepburn?  We guarantee you&amp;#8217;ll find just the piece you&amp;#8217;re looking for&amp;#8230;to transform your mood&amp;#8230;and your state of mind!  We hope you stop by often&amp;#8230;if nothing else, to read the stories accompanying our newest pieces&amp;#8230;and get a good laugh!&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Team&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Combine a business trip to Northern California and an impromptu stop into a bead shop and Beaded Energy was born!

One is local to Atlanta and the other to Virginia. Both have a love for fashion and a passion for creativity. Their goal is to create bold, sophisticated and timeless pieces that reflect current fashion trends.
