The world of crystals is a magical one. There are special meanings within each uniquely beautiful stone that come from their energetic properties. By keeping these special gems close by, you can pick up on delicate vibrations to enhance your mind, body and soul.

Life takes us on a variety of journeys, so the Dolls always keep a little extra magic in our pocket or purse. Not only are different stones beautiful to admire and collect, but also most of these gifts from the earth come with a tale.
A tale the Dolls believe to be true.
Crystals amplify the consciousness.” – Shirley MacLaine
We do have beautiful crystal collections but the Dolls are constantly giving stones to sprinkle some sparkle on their path. That means there’s a big turn around! Perhaps we will meet you out one day and pass on a tiger’s eye, amethyst or any stone we can feel that you need in your life at that moment.
With each crystal you ever receive, spend some time with it. Learn about its principles, origin and set a mantra for each stone. This way you’ll know which one your spirit is craving at a given time.

We will be featuring different stones on the blog monthly in our series, Crystal Chronicles. These stones may guide you ito a magical place, and when you’re ready to start a collection you will know where to go. When we are in different cities we always make it a point to find a crystal shop and get a little something. But in Chicago we have our set places we have grown very connected too.

Interesting information about crystals. I really love the look of them, but need to read more about them and what makes them unique.

This is so neat! I used to collect when I was a child. Wish I’d kept them. 🙁
I’m interested to hear more about this so I’m excited about Crystal Chronicles! The Azurite is beautiful!
Yes! Always believe in magic! I love this post!!
This is such a fun series! I remember collecting crystals and all sorts of stones and rocks when I was a kid I felt so special!
This is definitely a topic I knew nothing about until now! Thanks for the info!
I do believe there is energy all around us. Crystals are a wonderful representation of them.
Love this! And such beautiful pictures!
So neat! Never researched crystals but it looks really interesting ! Lovely theme for a post!
Beautiful post about crystals and their value! Interesting research with images! Enjoyed it!
My kids love collecting rocks and stones of all kinds. It’s fun to research things from a geological perspective!
How fascinating that crystals emit vibrations that can affect the human body! I know nothing about it, but I must say that the crystals pictured are breathtaking!
What a neat post! I hardly know anything about this, but I love to learn so much! My daughter loves these pretty rocks!
I love wondering through our local crystal shop. There are so many different kinds and they all have something special about them. I think they are all beautiful!
Hi Stacey, love this! Wandering around the crystal shop is one of our favorite activities. The stones and gems definitely speak to you. XO
I always felt there was some magic about crystals only by looking at them

Love this! Thanks, Doll 🙂
There is something so magical about crystals and whether you believe in its aura or not they are beautiful to look at. I would like to learn more.
Beautifully said. Thanks, Doll!
This is fascinating. I know little to nothing about crystals but would love to know more.
Thank you, Jill! We love crystals and will be sharing more information soon. XOXO
I absolutely love that top photo of the crystals on the train. I do not know much about crystals other than they are beautiful to look at.
Thank you so much Shelly! Different crystals carry energy properties that can bring you peace and balance. We’ll be featuring a different crystal each month so be sure to come back to the Dollhouse soon – we have an open door policy 😉
Those crystals are so pretty. I’d never known much about them so interesting information!
Thanks, Emily! Check back soon – we’ll have more beautiful stones to share. XO
Such an interesting post! I never knew crystals had such a deep background.
Thanks, Doll! Check back in for next month’s crystal feature 🙂
I used to be big into these. I wore a quartz around my neck at all times. Had nothing to do with the fact that they were shiny and pretty too… cough cough.
Loved learning about crystals. Crystal is my name even though it’s spelled Krystle. My mom got the spelling from a soap opera LOL.
Krystle, love this! You made us giggle.
I have no experience with this topic. They’re absolute beautiful though. I’m going to ask my MIL, I believe she uses crystals in this manner.
Thanks, Doll! It’s always fun to explore new things. Check back in with the Dollhouse -we have an open door policy 🙂
My boys have a thing for gemstones and crystals. They collect them whenever they can and love to read about them too. These are beautiful and each one is so unique. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for stopping by, Tanya! We love to hear that. Is there a particular stone that speaks to your boys? Xo
looks like you have quite the collection there. my daughter loves to collect these from time to time and has some pretty ones.
Thanks, Doll! There are so many beautiful stones – glad we all can experience the magic! Xo
Thanks for posting about these. I love the beauty in earth’s landscape.
There is so much beauty in this world. XO
My daughter would love this! Those crystals are beautiful!
Thanks, Doll! XO
I like the photos you’ve posted. I have a pink stone that I found in the ocean. I love how smooth the stone is. It’s as though the ocean acted as a tumbler. I’ve had this for over 15 years now.
Hi Kimberly, What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing.
Those are beautiful! My kids are really into finding pretty stones, and love to collect them in special boxes they have.
Thanks for stopping by the Dollhouse, Heather! Come back soon – we have an open door policy 🙂
Thanks, Doll! We love wearing crystals as jewelry. So beautiful!
I have always admired the beauty of crystals but never knew anything beyond that. Thank you foe this tutorial. It will help when I start my own collection!
Hi Toni, that’s awesome! Check back and let us know how your collection is doing. XO
I have crystals and I love them, I always used to carry them around. Very soothing.
This makes us so happy! XO
Very interesting. I’ve always found crystals to be really, but never really knew much beyond that. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Allie! XO
My husband loves collecting crystals and rocks. I never realized how many special meanings and powers they had until I met him. It’s amazing what nature can produce.
Hi Pam, that’s beautiful! You can totally feel their different energies. Stop by the Dollhouse again soon, we have an open door policy. XO
Omg now this is my kind of post!!! Im crystal obsessed! Have them in every corner of my house 🙂
Hi Courtney! We love to hear that! We’re doing a monthly crystal post so make sure to stop back! What are some of your favorites?
I’ve been very interested in crystals recently! It’s not typically my kind of thing, but it’s very interesting!
I love gazing at gems and crystals. I really want to start my own collection, what a great post.
Thank you, Ashleigh! You’re a Doll!
Wow, I learned a lot from this post. Nobody ever gave me a crystal, but if they ever do, I will be sure to spend some time with it.
Hi Eva, Wonderful! Let us know if there’s a stone or gem in particular you are interested in. XO
Wow, really interesting and some very beautiful stones!
I love crystals and learning about their meanings and powers. I found this store at the mall that I love where you can get gemstone and crystal items. I buy loose stones, and bought a tree made for my desk that is made out of bloodstone.
Hi Yona, That’s wonderful! Loose stones are great to carry in your purse or pocket for a little extra magic. Your desk sounds beautiful. Would love to see a photo! XO
I just read a book about crystals and it seemed so interesting. I had never tried or owned any before but it sounds cool.
Krystal, that is beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing. Are there any crystals that speak to you in particular?
I had no idea all this existed .. exquisite!
