    #BeadmasStories Day 9

    A sky of wonder…

    Known as the brightest star in the night’s sky (visible from Earth), Sirius can be seen as one of the best wishing stars! And that is why I chose A SIRIUS WISH | OHM BEADS as today’s Beadmas2019 | BeadmasStories Day 9 giveaway bead!

    Have you ever gazed up at the winter’s night sky and admired the mystery, the beauty…the snow falling, the stars twinkling…the moon glowing? As a Christian, I often think of, The Three Kings (AKA, the Magi or the Three Wise Men) and ponder how amazing it must have been to see, The Star of Bethlehem, as I gaze up at that dark sky. There are many theories on what this star actually was: multiple stars, a comet, exploding star, “dancing planets”, conjunction of multiple planets, etc!

    While Sirius is not in these theories, it still makes me think of a winter’s night sky…and that wonder and awe that must have been experienced by every one who saw the Star of Bethlehem!

    Ohm Beads’ A Sirius Wish is a stunning bead…full of mystery and wonder! It’s a wonderful bead to add to any bracelet design and a lovely reminder to make your wishes a reality!!!

    To enter into today’s giveaway, for this bead…please answer the following questions correctly:

    1. What do I think of, when I gaze up at a winter’s night sky?

    4. What is your Instagram username (if you win this bead, I will be contacting you through instagram)?

    Preview Day | Nov. 2019 Ohm Beads Collection

    Odette – Special Ohm Beads Release on November 8th, 2019

    Happy OHM BEADS Preview Day!!! In this blog post, I will be sharing my personal wish list beads from the upcoming release of the Ohm Beads November 2019 Collection. The official release date (unless otherwise noted), is on November 1st, 2019.

    All pictures featured in this blog are courtesy of Ohm Beads.

    I am so thankful for the opportunity to be an Ohmbassador and share this exciting content with you all. I would not have these opportunities without each and every one of you, so thank you! And…thank you, Ohm!

    Odette – Inspired by, The Swan Princess

    Odette Ohm Beads exclusive
    Illustrated and Designed by British designer, Rebecca Cresswell.
    Release Date: November 8, 2019 at 6:00 PM GMT
    You can check your official release time HERE.

    This is hands down, the top bead on my Wishlist from the November 2019 release. And I absolutely LOVE the packaging!!!

    Here is what Ohm Beads has to say about this special charm:

    This bead design is truly of magical proportions, entwining beauty and hidden meaning within her form. Inspired by the story ‘Swan Lake’ which is a timeless captivating love story about magical Swans.

    Odette is a beautiful Swan Princess who under the spell of a sorcerer, spends her days as a Swan swimming on a lake of tears and her nights in her beautiful human form.

    Wear a little piece of magic that holds a little slice of English charm designed to spread love, hope and remind you of calmness within today’s busy world.

    Swan Princess
    ODETTE
    Look at those feather details!

    The next bead (or should I say, beadS…) is the Ohm Lemon collection featuring four glass beads.

    I am a huge lover of lemon flavoured desserts (which is something I share in common with my dear friend, Nichol) and I could not be more excited for this release. I just love thinking about adding pops of yellows to my outfits!!!! I will especially love wearing these glass beads in the spring and summer seasons…or when I am wishing for warmer days ahead!

    Here is what Ohm Beads has to say about this collection:

    Who doesn’t love the sharp, clean smell or zesty taste of lemon? It is sunshine in your mouth. We love lemon cookies and pies, lemon tea, lemon marmalade, lemon pepper fish, ice-cold lemonade, or a zippy lemon twist in our favorite cocktail. In celebration of all things wonderfully lemon, OHM proudly presents this flavorful new assortment of bright, lemony glass beads: each one adding brilliance to your bracelet and a hearty spoonful of another favorite dessert.

    In order from left to right:
    LEMON JELLY ROLL, LEMON COCONUT BLISS,
    LEMON DROP SORBET, LEMON MERINGUE TART
    OHM LEMON COLLECTION

    If I had to pick a favourite glass bead from the Lemon Collection, I would have to go with one of my favourite desserts, Lemon Meringue Tart:

    Lemon Meringue
    How tasty does that look?!

    Speaking of glass beads, the other glass beads collection that will be releasing is called, Out There. These beads are truly magical and I can see myself dressing them up or down!

    Here is what Ohm Beads has to say:

    Semiotics is the study of signs and symbols, as well as their interpretations. The ability to communicate an idea is nearly impossible. It is honestly magic that we do do it. When you are studied in stories, words, symbols, tropes, references, memes, gifs, emojis, etc., communication becomes possible. The sharing of knowledge fuels our species and allows us to reach for the stars.

    Out There, glass beads collection paired with Odette and Imagine

    There are three glass beads in the collection. They are:

    A SIRIUS WISH
    DEEP BLUE
    GALAXY

    The last glass bead that I am loving is through The Art Oblivion OHMster Exclusive (meaning you can only purchase the bead through, The Art Oblivion website). It is called, Imagine.

    How often do you think I catch myself day dreaming? All the time!!! So, I cannot think of a better glass bead choice for me! And I just love those puffy white clouds and that vibrant pop of blue!

    Here is what Ohm has to say:

    IMAGINE invites us to lay on our backs, look up at the sky, and allow the stories of the sky to unfold. Let your mind open to the STREAM of your own imagination.

    Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said: “one can’t believe impossible things.”


    “I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”— Lewis Carroll

    IMAGINE
    IMAGINE
    IMAGINE

    Moving back into silver beads, my second last favourite is not an item for myself…but one I would love to purchase for quite a few of my friends who are nurses (and one female doctor).

    It is called, Listen to Love.

    Here is what Ohm has to say about it:

    Nurses are the backbone of any health organization. They do what needs to be done. They continually give and give no matter what while caring for those that need it most. They help, they heal, and they love.

    Listen to Love by Ohm Beads

    Now, last…BUT…certainly not least!!!! My last wish list item is the BOTM for November 2019, Oracle. It is absolutely amazing and…once again, Ohm Beads does the most spectacular, storytelling packaging!

    Oracle BOTM comes with a tea light holder.

    Here is what Ohm has to say about their BOTM:

    Each face spins. There is a cut-out in the spinner to view which number or symbol it lands on. One face features 12 roman numerals as it were a clock face, the other face has 12 randomized simple symbols. These symbols can be either interpreted on the fly, or pre-assigned meanings or ideas.

    The idea is that it can be used as an oracle to help guide you in your day and in your life. Similar to OHM TAROT CARDS or CHI CHI STICKS 2.0.

    Oracle, up close! I think it is so cool how it actually spins on the front and back!!!

    And that is it for my November 2019 wish list from Ohm Beads release!!! And if you haven’t already, make sure to watch Nichol’s/MyPandoraCharmedLife Preview video on the entire November release HERE. After you watch her video, please comment down below and tell me what items are going on your Ohmbeads Wishlist!!!

    Happy Preview Day! xx

    Inner Self | Ohm Beads BOTM

    No. 48/555 Inner Self OHM BOTM

    In May 2019, Ohm Beads released their limited edition, OHM BOTM (Bead of the Month). They called it, Inner Self. These beads are uniquely special…there are only 555 of them, all with different variations of colour and detail in the embedded glass detail held inside exquisitely detailed sterling silver. Upon ordering, you will have no idea which embedded glass detail you will receive…the anticipation and guessing makes the arrival of this charm extra special!

    The experience of opening this charm was truly incredible! I will be posting a youtube video of it, as well! Keep an eye out.

    Unboxing the Ohm Bead, Inner Self

    Each bead is serialized and engraved with an individual code and is sealed in a wooden keepsake box with golden lock and a mini, cotton black bag. The wooden box comes inside a velvet pouch, cleaning cloth and envelope. A mini certificate of authenticity with the number in the series is included. My bead is number 48/555. The charm retails for $140 CAD and let me tell you…it was worth every penny to me!

    No. 48/555

    The meaning behind this charm is quite a personal one. Although, I won’t dive into the whole story (I will one day soon, promise)…this charm represents an injury/health problem I have currently been battling the past 1.5 years. It hasn’t been easy, but I find the best thing is to stay positive, focus on the good and trust in God.

    The Inner Self bead I received is just perfect for me! It is primarily spotted green with white and gold speckled details. It reminds me of my love of the forest and outdoors. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or needing to “escape”…I want to run away into the forest! Whether it is just to read, run or hike, I feel most myself when I am surrounded by trees and forest creatures!

    Inner Self – Bead of the Month

    Ohm Beads’ meaning behind the charm is wonderful. Here is their inspiration behind it: One’s inner self is only partially exposed to the light of the sun. Sometimes it feels like we are showing ourselves fully but that is not true. So much remains hidden, and usually by choice. Our choice. When we prejudge the value of self before ever opening up to another soul we deprive ourselves of seeing ourselves as whole. Think of your whole private self. That self you become when you are alone, safe, comfortable, free of responsibilities and expectation. What are you like? Where are you? The WHY of existence is clear when you are here in the NOW. You are a fool with a magician’s power. You hold the keys to your life’s unlimited possibilities. Let your inner self open up to others, and you… you listen to your inner self.

    Below, are some detailed images I took! But I promise; a youtube video will be coming out, as well!

    The back of the charm reminds me of the moon or a planet!
    Georgina is quite curious about this bead!
    She’s not sure what all the fuss is about!
    Zooey was pretty impressed!
    Although she’s not too sure what to do with it. She was hoping it was edible.
    Green, White, Gold…tiny traces of blue!
    Inner Self
    Angled View

    The detail of the face, split into two…so we can see what is hidden behind someone’s facial expressions. Who are they really? What are they thinking?

    Complete Side View of Inner Self
    Back View

    This charm was much bigger than I was expecting it to be! It is quite the statement piece and would make a great centre piece charm or even a pendant! It is nearly an inch wide. I will keep you posted on how I end up styling it!

    Can you see the specks of gold?

    I highly recommend this charm. It is absolutely exquisite and if it holds a special meaning for you…it is worth the investment! It ships from Thailand, but I found it didn’t take too long to arrive! Beautifully packaged and arrived safe and sound.

    Please let me know if you got the, Inner Self OHM BOTM or plan to! I would love to know what coloured embedded glass detail you get!

    Pandora Valentines | Bracelet & Outfit

    Thinking about how blessed I am to have my sweet husband in my life.

    A new video is up on my youtube channel! I am so proud with how this video turned out. Would you believe I probably spent about 12.5 hours total with filming and editing? I tend to get these fun ideas and images in my head of how I want a video to look…and I may get a bit crazy with filming and editing to make it as close to the ideas in my head!

    I often get asked, “who films your videos”. This is such a compliment to me because…well, actually I film all my own footage and edit it myself!!! I usually set up a tripod and play around with different angles. This may take more time, but it is worth it because I get some lovely shots.

    Occasionally, (more so, if I am outdoors), my husband will help take some footage for me. I don’t like leaving my tripod and camera unattended, so I feel safer having him around to guide the camera! However, this can be challenging too because I am not always sure if he is capturing the exact angle I am envisioning. Often, I’ll try to show him first, so he can have a rough idea. But what also ends up happening, is he sees a cool shot or angle and I end up loving that too! In this particular video however, it was all filmed by me!

    Here is where you can watch my video!

    This particular video features my Pandora Valentine’s Day bracelet (all about the charm meanings and why I put them on) as well as detailed information about my Valentine’s Day outfit and other accessories including handbag, shoes and other Pandora jewellery. Here’s a couple shots:

    Two special Pandora Bracelets and delicious Charbonnel Rose Chocolates
    My Loefflerr Randall Bucket Bag is the perfect handbag for Valentine’s Day!
    I love my blush velvet Nine West Shoes!!!

    What did you wear on Valentine’s Day and did you have a special Valentine’s Day outfit?

    Have a lovely weekend everyone!

    Love Emily xx

    Disneyland and Pandora!!!

    Take me back to Disneyland!!!!

    Happy Sunday!!! I hope you are all doing well.

    Well, it has been a very “Disney-fied” time on my youtube channel recently. I am slowly finishing my way through my Disneyland videos. As of most recently, I have published both my Disneyland and Disney x Pandora Park Exclusive charm videos to youtube (see below). And I am currently working on my final instalment of my Fashion Diaries | Disneyland series. With this instalment, I am trying to fit days 4, 5 and 6 together. Here’s hoping I can edit the footage so it is not too long. The only sad part is, I ended up loosing my day 4 video footage, so it will be mostly photos on that day.

    Once I have finished editing and uploading all my Disney content, I will be in full Christmas mode. I am really looking forward to filming some fun Christmas content for you…and (of course) that will include my updated Pandora Christmas bracelet!

    Much Love to you all!!!

    Emily xx
