Hand-Selected Crystals, Minerals & Metaphysical Treasures

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What is crystal home decor?**
A: Crystal home decor refers to decorative pieces that incorporate natural crystals and minerals into functional or artistic items for the home. This includes suncatchers, night lights, shadow boxes, incense holders, decorative bottles, and more. Beyond their visual beauty, each crystal carries its own energetic properties that can support the mood and intention of a space.

**Q: Where should I hang a crystal suncatcher?**
A: Crystal suncatchers work best in windows that receive direct or indirect sunlight — east or west-facing windows are ideal for catching morning or afternoon light. Hang them near a meditation space, above a desk, or in a living room window to fill your space with dancing prismatic light and uplifting energy throughout the day.

**Q: What crystal is best for home protection and positive energy?**
A: Black tourmaline and obsidian are classic choices for protection, often placed near entryways. Amethyst promotes calm and spiritual clarity, making it ideal for bedrooms and meditation spaces. Citrine brings warmth and abundance energy to living areas and workspaces. Clear quartz amplifies the energy of any space it's placed in.

**Q: Are crystal shadow boxes handmade?**
A: Yes! Our crystal shadow boxes are individually handcrafted, with each piece featuring a unique arrangement of crystals, botanicals, figurines, and artistic elements. Because natural crystals vary in color, size, and pattern, no two shadow boxes are exactly alike — making each one a truly one-of-a-kind piece of art.

**Q: How do I use an incense holder with crystals?**
A: Place your incense holder on a heat-safe surface away from flammable materials. Light your incense cone or stick, allow it to catch flame briefly, then gently blow it out so it smolders. The smoke from incense like sandalwood, frankincense, or dragon's blood pairs beautifully with crystal energy for cleansing and ritual work. Keep crystals nearby but not directly in the ash path to protect their surface.

**Q: Do crystal night lights need special bulbs?**
A: Our crystal night lights use standard LED components and come ready to use. LEDs are ideal for crystal lights as they produce minimal heat, protecting the integrity of the stone while providing a soft, warm glow that highlights the natural beauty of each crystal specimen.
