Avatar / Tree of Life Necklace

Do you know what I'm super excited for? The Avatar: The Last Airbender necklace I made today!

This was indefinitely inspired by the fact that Stefan and I have watched all of season 2 and 3 in the last few weeks.

The tree is a tree of life, and the gemstones represent the 4 elements. Light blue = air, dark blue = water, green = earth, red = fire.

Any avatar fan knows that these are also the four nations on the show. But at the most basic level the necklace is a reminder about the earth, and keeping the delicate balance of nature. (That happens to also be the theme of the show.) Another interesting point: trees require water, create air, grown in the earth, and feed fire. Kind of unrelated but still interesting. Anyways, I really like this necklace. I have one more tree charm and want to make another one with the same gems, but in a different style. Still working on it.

Off to go hang out with the amazing AUTUMN!
