✨ Magic Reinvigorated — It’s Good to Be Home ✨

After a much-needed break to rest and recharge, I’m back in The Crystal Shop with a refreshed spirit and renewed magic. 💎💫

Running a small independent shop is truly a labour of love — equal parts joy, sparkle, and sheer hard work! As many of you know, I live with Fibromyalgia, and I’ve realised that in order to keep the good vibes flowing, I need to honour my own energy, too.

💖 So, going forward, The Crystal Shop will now be:

🪶 Closed Tuesdays & Wednesdays
✨ Open Thursdays, Fridays & Mondays: 10 am – 4:30 pm
🌞 Sundays: 10:30 am – 2:30 pm
🌿 Saturdays: 10 am – 4:30 pm (with Tegan behind the counter!)

🔮 Tarot Readings are available on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays & Fridays during shop hours, and can also be arranged for other times by appointment.

Thank you all for your ongoing love and support — every visit, kind word, and crystal adoption keeps this little haven alive and sparkling. ✨

Here’s to balancing rest, magic, and a whole lot of gratitude.

✨ Recharging the Crystal Magic ✨

Even magic needs a top-up now and then — and so do I! 🫶

The shop will be closed from 5th – 10th October while I take a little time to rest, recharge, and reset so I can keep bringing you the crystal magic you know and love.

🗓 Closed: 5th – 10th October
📦 Online Orders: Anything placed during this time will be shipped on Monday, 13th October.

Think of it as me charging my own batteries — just like you charge your crystals under the full moon. 🌙
Can’t wait to see you when I’m back, full of sparkle and probably carrying a few new treasures!

See you soon,
Didi x 💖

P.S. I’ve got some gorgeous new pieces waiting to make their debut when I get back… you’re going to want to be first in line. 👀✨

💜 From Warehouse Dust to Birthday Magic 💜

Some crystals wait patiently for their forever humans… This gorgeous Amethyst Heart Portal from Peru was one of them.

I spotted her tucked away at the back of a shelf in my supplier’s warehouse — half hidden, totally majestic, and absolutely meant to come back to my shop with me with me.

She took pride of place on my pink dresser (aka the “showstopper shelf”) here in The Crystal Shop – Crickhowell, and trust me, she turned heads daily.

Nearly every customer who came through the door paused to admire her. There were offers, requests to reserve, and so many “I’ll be back for her” promises. But I’ve never been one to hike prices just because something’s popular — if I believe the price is fair, it stays.

Then one quiet Monday afternoon — you know the ones, where you're tidying up and looking forward to a cup of tea — a lovely couple from the US wandered in, just before I closed. As we chatted, the woman mentioned it was her birthday the next day…

And just like that, the Amethyst Portal had found her new guardian — a birthday gift across the ocean.

💫 Crystals know when it's time.
💫 And I love being the one to help them get there.

Whether it’s sourcing special stones for you, or watching you fall in love with a piece that’s been waiting patiently, it’s the absolute best part of what I do.

Happy travels, Amethyst Queen. You’ll be missed. 💜

Do you sleep with your crystals under your pillow or beside your bed? Or do they get tucked in before you do?

📸 Not a real photo — just a little AI magic to bring the crystal fantasy to life. ✨
