Gemstones in Arts & Crafts: Crystals for Candles, Soap & Décor

Infuse beauty, energy, and intention into your DIY projects with Australian-sourced crystals

 

Gemstones have captivated humanity for millennia — not just for their stunning beauty, but for their metaphysical energies. From jewellery to home décor, and now candles, wax melts, and soap, crystals are a versatile medium for creativity and intention. This Australian artisan guide explores practical and mystical uses of gemstones in crafts — with DIY ideas and sourcing tips.


Gemstones in Jewellery

  • Rose Quartz: Love, compassion
  • Amethyst: Calm, clarity
  • Black Tourmaline: Protection, grounding

Gemstones in Home Décor

  • Geode Bookends: Natural art
  • Agate Coasters: Functional luxury
  • Crystal Lamps: Ambiance + energy
Crystal Energy: While metaphysical properties are not scientifically proven, many report enhanced mood and focus in crystal-rich spaces.
 

Gemstones in Candles & Wax Melts

Crystal Candles

Embed heat-safe crystals (quartz, amethyst) in soy wax. As candle burns, stone is revealed — a gift within.

Wax Melts

Add crystal chips to melts for scent + energy diffusion.

Pro Tip: Use soy or beeswax — burns cooler, safer for crystals.

DIY Gemstone Projects

Gemstone Soap

Embed clear quartz points in melt & pour for luxury cleansing.

Crystal Art

Arrange moss agate, carnelian on canvas with resin.

Garden Markers

Glue howlite to stakes — label with paint pen.
