WONDER WORDS JEWELRY is no longer available. Though we can still wear these encouraging words in our hearts.

Wonder Words is a collection of necklaces inspired by Wonder Anew and available from Magnet House™ Jewelry, Marianne Richmond's original, interchangeable jewelry line that lets you wear and share your heart.

The concept is simple.

Choose a necklace.

Choose the magnets you love.

Swap out your magnet to match your mood or message (a hole in the back of the pendant lets you pop out the magnet with a paper clip, ballpoint pen or earring back).

Add a cute gift tin to keep everything in one place.

Just like that — a gift hangs close to your heart or on someone you adore.

The Wonder Words collection honors and celebrates the people who unravel and explore their experiences. This collection also features Terry Barrett's photographs of walls and doors taken in Italy. I chose these photographs for my website and suggested them for Marianne's jewelry because they visually depict Wonder Anew’s message about transformation and becoming. I see in them a witness to living and an exquisite reflection of being cracked open or rawly exposed.

Here’s a peek into how I choose which necklace to wear each day.

While reading about generosity, I began to wonder about how it opens us up to life.

I was curious about the concepts around who is it who gives, the act of giving, and what is given.

During that wonderment, a friend wrote and asked, “Want to join me in giving voice to heart andlove?”

Specifically, she asked me to choose some words that women might want to give themselves to wear close to their hearts. Words as necklaces. Given to ourselves, our hearts and minds, and seen by others.

I thought of the collective, generous responses many of us choose in difficult moments to experiment with and use, and how those choices teach. I thought of those who embrace a wakeful working with their problems using the Wonder Anew questions.

I knew what to send.

Your love.

Your heart.

Your words.

Barely taking a grateful breath, I said yes to the synchronicity of her invitation and Wonder Words began.

I am hip-hop happy to share these words and images with my friend, the beautiful Marianne Richmond. She is an author, artist, and inspirationalist. If you're like me, you'll get out your light-up pen to circle her name and bookmark her website.   xo Susan
