Heavenly Blue Celestite The name comes from the word celestial, which means heavenly. Celestite is a favorite among mineral collectors. Its sky blue (or celestial) color is very pretty, and is unique in the mineral kingdom. Celestite is usually found disseminated through limestone or sandstone and also occurs in evaporites, hydrothermal veins, and metallic ore deposits, especially lead.Celestite also forms with other colorful minerals, making very nice combinations. Blue celestite with bright yellow sulfur is one of the most famous colorful combinations of minerals. Celestite has the same structure as Barite (BaSO4), and forms very similar crystals. The two may seem Identical by ordinary methods, but a flame test can distinguish them. By scraping the dust of the crystals into a gas flame, the color of the flame will confirm the identity of the crystal. If the flame is a pale green, it is barite, but if the flame is red, it is celestite. The flame test works because the elements barium (Ba) and strontium (Sr) react with the flame and produce those colors. Normally barite is not blue, but many specimens of blue barite are often misidentified as celestite. The nice crystals, good luster and attractive blue color make fine specimens of celestite an outstanding mineral for someone's cabinet or display case. At Wilderness Reflections, you will find beautiful celestite specimens, some even polished into the shape of eggs or spheres. Save 20% on celestite during the month of April!

| Stuck on Sticker Books The graphics contained in these sticker books are very vivid and lifelike. Children love the bright colors and extensive sticker assortment (more than 60 stickers). Our sticker books come in a wide variety of subjects, such as birds, bugs, night sky, horses, and reptiles. As the child locates the outline where their sticker belongs, there is a brief sentence or two about the particular bird, reptile, etc. The easy-peel design also allows the stickers to be used more than once. If you enjoy creative learning, these books would be a wonderful choice for any child. The "Buzz" on Magnets When magnetized hematite is thrown into the air, they "click" into each other faster and faster as their magnetic force slams them together. The resulting sounds is a loud, "Tzzaanng", which is similar to the sound of a rare south African beetle. The sound is very captivating, turning heads and causing curious attention. Buzz magnets come in highly polished oval pairs. They are so strong, you can have one on the back of your fingers, and the other on the inside, clinging towards each other right through your hand. It is best to keep these powerful magnets away from magnetically sensitive items such as credit cards, computers, televisions, and pacemakers. We also recommend using with them over carpeting or grass, as they will crack on a cement floor. Our price: only $5.00/pair! Style Fused with Therapy Choose from single-color strands in shades such as light green, lavender, or even aurora borealis. We carry every color under the rainbow, as well as multi-color strands to compliment every outfit. Many designs also incorporate genuine freshwater pearls. There are several theories as to how magnets assist with healing. Some believe they augment the body’s natural magnetic field, restoring balance. Others indicate magnets speed up circulation in the area where the jewelry is worn, thereby assisting with healing. Those with arthritic pain in their joints seem to find wearing magnet particularly beneficial. Whether for health or simply fashion, these bracelets make a great gift and are fun to wear!
