Sage Leaf Stud Earrings | (Salvia apiana)
We usually see sage as full grown leaves used in cooking or smudging- burning for cleansing effects. But everyone must start somewhere, and these little stud earrings were made from the molds of baby sage leaves. The bubbly texture is there, but it’s not quite as defined, making these earrings a softer replica of nature’s design.
This pair of earrings is cast in sterling silver and fitted with sterling silver posts and ear nuts. They are about a ¼ inch in diameter.

Indoor Air Pollution
Hoya flowers are stars within stars, making them extra cute. It is a popular houseplant, because its thick waxy leaves are a deep green and the flowers bloom in little spheres along the trailing vine.
What isn’t immediately obvious, is that hoyas are one of five “super-ornamentals” according to a study done by the University of Georgia. These are plants that are beautiful, as well as being extremely helpful in reducing indoor air-pollution.
The scientists who administered the study weren’t exactly surprised by the fact that plants absorb volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like benzene, octane and others. Rather they were surprised by the poor quality of the air they measured in various homes. “Harmful indoor air pollutants can cause a host of serious illnesses, including asthma, cancer, reproductive and neurological disorders-and more than 1.6 million deaths a year, according to a 2002 World Health Organization report.”
VOCs are emitted from plastics, furniture, paints, cleaning products, adhesives, carpets, solvents etc. If you ever needed a reason to get more plants, protecting yourself and your family from these invisible chemicals might just be the excuse you need.
