Keeping A Vision Alive With Jewelry
Perhaps it is unusual to see a ring that dances and affirms a vision. Maybe that's why people often ask me about the ring that I wear on my thumb.
My ring is the keeper of words that have special meaning to me: Embrace Your Gifts, Soar, Circles, Women, Love, Movement, Joy.
I love wearing a ring that was made just for me. I told my friend, Lil McKinnon Hicks the words I wanted on this ring and quietly sat in her studio and watched her skillfully turn pieces of metal into jewelry.
The loops on the ring are loose so I never know which word might catch my eye. The ring's movement accelerates a feeling of aliveness and reminds me to focus on living in alignment with my life purpose. Most importantly, this ring connects me to feelings of gratitude for having wonderfully gifted, inspiring, creative, supportive women in my life.
If you have special words you would like to wear on a ring, send a note to Lil at mail@lilmckhjewelry.com.



What a beautiful piece to own and to have watched it being made must have been so magical and special. I don't tend to wear jewellry but if I did I would definately want it to be very personal like your ring is to you!

I don't have a ring....but I bought this beautiful handblown glass pendant that says spirit on it. I wear it all the time and it really makes me feel better when I do.

I have a similar sterling silver spinning ring that I ordered from QVC, of all places. It has the words Faith, Hope, Peace, and Love inscribed on it. It is called a prayer ring, and is based on ancient Tibetan prayer wheels. The motion in the ring is supposed to give the wearer a special "calming" effect, so these are sometimes called worry rings. Although I envy you your personalized version that is truly a work of art, mine works for me!
