Reversible Handmade Silver Collage Pendant - Believe in Yourself
A California artist made these delightful pendants for SilverCrow several and we lost them! Were we ever happy when they reappeared - as if by magic!
Each side of the pendant is based on an original collage created by the artist. We are entranced by the elegant beauty of the free spirited Gypsy and the sentiments, on the front:
believe in Yourself
And, on the back:
People will love you for the honesty within your Soul.
Although every piece is different because the pendants are handmade, each combines vintage photographs, papers and words. This is also striking with an added ribbon, draped over the corner of a mirror or a framed picture.
Two pendants are shown to illustrate the front and back. The pendant measures about 1-1/2 inch long (not including the bail) by 1 inch wide and the bail is large enough for just about any chain, ribbon or cord.

Blank Note Card: Always dream and shoot higher than you know you can do...
William Faulkner won the Nobel Price for Literature in 1949 "for his powerful and artistically unique contribution to the modern American novel." He also wrote the short story, Tomorrow, upon which one of our favorite movies (starring Robert Duvall) was based. His advice for a new graduate, or someone starting a new endeavor, is timeless:
ALWAYS DREAM AND SHOOT HIGHER THAN YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO. DON'T BOTHER JUST TO BE BETTER THAN YOUR CONTEMPORARIES OR PREDECESSORS. TRY TO BE BETTER THAN YOURSELF.
-WILLIAM FAULKNER-

From Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, this stunning quote gives rise to so many feelings, whether they be the will to power, or any other of his thousands of ideas. Commonly known as a nihilist, Nietzsche's own words belie such beliefs:

Wind as Breath Note Card
More Courage
Graduation
Nick Wroblewski is a Midwest-based printmaker specializing in hand-cut wood block prints. His images are depictions of the natural world, carved from large blocks of wood and printed one color at a time. He uses a traditional method of carving away more material as the print progresses, resulting in the eventual elimination of the textured image on the block. He is very interested in art that is hand hewn, art that shows the gesture of a landscape, and art that speaks to the dynamic energy shared between all life.
How perfect this advice for anyone:
Walk tall as the trees Live strong as the mountain Be gentle as the spring wind Keep the warmth of the summer sun in your heart and the great spirit will always be with you. -Ojibwa
Each 5 by 7 inch card is letter-press printed on a textured 100% recycled paper with soy based inks, and is accompanied by an envelope for mailing.

50 Days to a Better Life - Old-time Punch Board
Rizzo's Fortune Telling Punch Game
Answers to Your Questions Punch Game
Hallowe'en Stunt Board
The 50 Days to a Better Life Punch Board is inspired by similar ones from the 1920s! The instructions are right on the front:
Push Out a Task and Complete it Before Pushing Out another
Using the pin from the slot on the reverse side, punch out one scroll each day for 50 days. Simply do what it says.
Each cardboard tile (about 1/2-inch thick) veils fifty tasks - each rolled individually. a push punch, which is hidden in a sealed slot on the back side, is used to "push out" each day's allotted task into the palm of your hand! You can even save your tasks to use in your next collage!
Two sample tasks:
replace a button on a garment. use red thread & make a wish.
carry a rock in your pocket for a week as a reminder of something you want to do.
This truly special board is perfect for a friend who is in search of reason or trying to center his or her life. Maybe that friend is you yourself!

He'd always looked, but when he looked this time he had bloomed. . . finally reaching his point of purpose. It was without a doubt the brightest year of his life.

Reach for the Stars Charm
What better advice than this:
REACH FOR THE STARS
This lovely charm is fashioned from lead-free pewter and measures about 7/8 inch high by 5/8 inch wide. The hanging loop is in the back, so that it will also double as a small pendant or focal point of a necklace. There is also a tiny hold in the back that allows you to add a charm or bead to hang between the two bottom points of the star. But, if you choose not to do so, the hole is hardly visible.
Because of the great message impressed into the front, this makes a wonderful addition to a baby gift or collage, or, indeed, a graduation present. We're sure you'll find many uses.

"E=mc2", says he! Voodoo Baby Albert will increase your brain power to help you understand the most difficult of things. This is an especially good gift for students preparing for the BAR, SATs, finals, and other higher learning exams.

The creation of each VooDooBaby takes not only excellent artisanship, but also a great deal of attention, patience and care. They are an expression of imagination, creativity and appreciation and are not for real and possess no curse effect whatsoever - but wouldn't it be nice if they could?

This is My Wish for You
Frequently one wishes to say to another, "I wish you the best of everything." This book delivers this message with power and sincerity. Welleran Poltarnees has taken Charles Snell's text and selected a painting or illustration for each wish, giving additional life to an already marvelous text.
We assert, without exaggeration, that this is the nearly perfect gift book. It is the smaller hardcover version of a book with the same title, measuring 4-1/2 by 6-1/2 inches.
This is a book created to be given. At its center is a poem by Charles Snell which was written for, and published in, 1914 as a small gift book. In it the giver, in a series of concrete images, extends the recipient many good wishes.
In the 48-page volume, Snell's words are presented within borders made by Daniel Maclise for a book entitled Moore's Irish Melodies, published in 1846. Selected images accompany each wish. These are made by a great variety of painters and illustrators, and range over more than 150 years.
This Is My Wish for You is in the tradition of ancient blessings, in which one tries, through the power of language, to throw a mantle of protection and beneficence over the receiver.

Go Confidently in the direction of your dreams!
More Weddings & Anniversaries
As a youngster, I was fascinated with Henry David Thoreau. The thought of civil disobedience is exciting to anyone who might have a dream of his or her own, but his willingness to lead the life of his dreams at Walden Pond was more than an inspiration. Thoreau did graduate from Harvard and work at his father's pencil shop for a time as well.
Why not offer that same fascination to someone you love or who listens to you intently:
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Life the life you've imagined.
