Moon Flight Bat Earrings by ksjewelrydesigns


Bats are some of the most classic creatures that thrive in the night. In these earrings by ksjewelrydesigns, cute little sterling silver antiqued bats fly over 16mm jet Swarovski crystal moons.

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and all of my non-fish companion animals have been adopted or rescued. My husband and I have become the people our neighbors go to when they see an animal in need, so we can provide emergency care and get them to a proper facility. We're in a rural area, but stop traffic for an animal when we have to, most recently a garter snake! 20% of the money earned from my bat earrings is donated to Bat Conservation International, and 10% of everything else goes to BCI or the Center for Biological Diversity in part to support their Get the Lead Out campaign.

Chauncey the Jellyfish Necklace by Kskjewelrydesigns' Shop


This jellyfish named Chauncey is in the nest of the sea. He was created as a reminder of how fragile our ocean life is, but also as a positive message of its resilience. The jellyfish shows us how to move in harmony with the natural forces of Mother Earth, the nest of all nests. It is said to symbolize faith and acceptance, and some believe that its transparent form holds the key to true spiritual knowledge.
The artist has spent her life rescuing animals, bringing in, caring for & finding homes for strays. Ten percent of all sales from this shop go to Bat Conservation International in hopes of helping their efforts in fighting white-nose syndrome.
