Fundraising For Conscious Crafties
I have personally donated my time and materials freely to create these bracelets, so that you can be sure every penny will go directly to Conscious Crafties Fundraising, to support our community, and to make this market place possible (excluding shipping costs, which will go on stamps!)

Last summer, ‘Wish’ bracelets proved to be hugely popular, a must-have accessory for any festival goer, student, holiday maker or the young at heart!
They featured a wide variety of charms, designs and colours, and are usually worn stacked on the wrist alongside charity and festival bands.
And now, we can begin to look forward once again to the Spring, when the world becomes fresh and clean, green shoots and flowers peep out, and the world wakes up again, with so much promise of golden summer days to come.

So, to help you to recapture this feeling of life about to burst into bloom once more, we have introduced our new take on these ‘Wish Bracelets’, creating them on a pink cord with a beautiful silver tone heart. But what makes this bracelet even more special, is that every penny you pay to purchase it will go directly to the Conscious Crafties Community Coffers.
Conscious Crafties is a community of crafters who are all living with some form of chronic condition that affects their daily life.
So, we in spite despite our challenges, indeed our crafting has often been very therapeutic for us, and selling the items is an added bonus!

The idea of the wish Bracelet is that as you tie/put on the bracelet, you make your wish, and from then on, the bracelet remains on your wrist day and night, until the string breaks or wears through.
This is when your wish is ready to come true.
The thinking behind this is based on the belief that you do not get something for nothing, thus the loss of a trinket is the price to pay for your wish coming true!
Personally, I had a little difficulty making something that was intended to be lost/broken, instead I believe that if you make your wish as you tie on your bracelet, each time you look at it you will remember your wish, and work to making it a reality.
To this end, your Wish bracelet will be made with an adjustable sliding knot for a ‘keeper’, and will be beautifully presented on a Conscious Crafties header card, with a rhyme to help you to make your wish.

Posted on7th June 2018 by Ceri Smith


I used to be an active primary school teacher, until problems arising from Congenital Hip Dislocation and Bi Lateral Hip Dysplasia. Shortly after the birth of my children, I developed Severe Arthritis in my left hip. After some time and waiting lists (another story!) I had a hip replacement on my left hip. I returned to work and caring for my family, but the hip was never ‘right’ and still caused issues. To cut a very long story short, after multiple surgeries, eventually a severe bone infection was found. This meant removal of the entire prosthesis and iv antibiotic before replacing the hip again. However, Chronic Pain ensued. And ultimately I was offered the option of total permanent removal of the implant leaving me disabled but without pain. Sadly, that didn’t work out too well, and the same level of pain ensued. I was referred to various PMU and underwent many procedures, and have had a spinal cord stimulator implant.

Gemstones have long been my passion, and I’ve always dabbled making gemstone bracelets and pressing them onto my long suffering friends whenever they mentioned some ailment. It was a natural progression for me, when I had to retire from teaching on medical grounds, to begin making my jewellery to sell. This began simply as a way to keep busy, whilst I was in and out of hospital, and I only ever made items to order for people I knew.. but they were paying me, so I could buy more sparkly rocks!
Now I make all sorts of jewellery, but each item is still made with as much love as those first bracelets, and the recipient is the main focus at the centre of everything I create.
So I’m afraid I don’t have ready made items that I can pop into a Jiffy bag when you order, but I will create a specially commissioned piece just for you!
This story started with me as an active young(ish) mum with a career I loved. Now my children are post University, working and living their own lives, my husband is my carer, and I spend a lot of time in bed!
