5 Creative uses for Crystal Chips (besides Essential Oil Roller Bottles!)
Crystal chips have become increasingly popular for adding beauty and healing benefits to essential oil roller bottles, but not all crystals are suitable for this purpose.
There are many crystals which are unsafe to store in liquids. [Learn more here.] Upon realizing that your collection includes many of these crystals, you will likely ask yourself, "What in the heck do I do with all the crystal chips that I now realize are UNSAFE to store in liquids?!"
In this blog post, we will explore alternative ways to utilize crystal chips, whether you have leftover chips from your roller bottle DIYs or crystals that are not safe for roller bottles. These methods will allow you to continue benefiting from the energy and beauty of crystals in various settings. Let's dive in!
Add Crystal Chips to Amber Glass Bottles
When you finish your bottle, make sure to cleanse and reenergize your crystals before reuse.
Add a few crystal chips to your essential oil bottles for boosted benefits. When you finish the bottle, make sure to cleanse and reenergize your crystals before reuse.
While clear glass roller bottles are a popular choice for combining crystals and essential oils, you can just as easily add liquid-safe crystal chips into the original amber glass bottles from your preferred essential oil brand. Dark bottles help protect any added carrier oil from degradation. So dark glass is a great option for long term storage, whether in standard, dropper, or roller form.
3 THINGS TO REMEMBER:
1. The crystals you choose still need to be safe to store in liquids.
2. Clear glass bottles (such as these roller bottles) are totally fine if you’re planning to store your collection in a cool, dark place.
3. Dark Glass Bottles are preferable if you’ll be keeping your collection out on the countertop and using the blends over longer periods of time.
2. Combine Crystals and Essential Oils Outside of Roller Bottles
If you have specific crystals that complement the properties of certain essential oils, but they aren’t safe to store INSIDE the bottle, you can still create a powerful combination.
Simply place the crystals, such as calming stones like Aquamarine or protective stones like Labradorite, in a dish or bowl alongside your favorite essential oil. The crystal frequency will travel through the glass, harmonizing with the essential oil energies and providing a soothing and aromatic experience. Remember to match the crystal properties with the corresponding essential oils for the desired effect.
The one catch to this method is that the crystal and oil vibrations will harmonize while in contact, through the glass, but the benefits will wear off over time once the bottle is removed from the bowl of crystal chips. Therefore this method is best used when you can store your bottle in the crystal-filled bowl nearly all the time.
3. Cleanse and Energize Crystals on Clear Quartz
Clear Quartz is known for its cleansing properties and can help reset the energy of other crystals. Lay your quartz crystal chips on a dish or plate. Nestle your tumbled stones into the quartz chips to help rejuvenate their healing energy. You can also drape your crystal jewelry across the quartz chips, to help maintain the positive energy and intentions of your precious pieces.
This is especially beneficial for Protection Jewelry and other crystals that you use for special ceremonies or other healing modalities. As these hard working crystals require more frequent cleansing, this gives you a safe and easy way to make sure you are giving them the love and care they need.
4. Enhance your Ceremonies with a Crystal Chip Bed for Tea Light Candles
The gentle flickering of a candle flame symbolizes illumination and spiritual awakening, perfect for enhancing your meditation and spiritual ceremonies. The act of lighting a candle can help you enter your meditative space, and as the candle burns, it becomes a visual representation of intentions and prayers, lending an aura of hope and positive energy to your ceremony.
Choose crystals that align with the purpose of your ceremony, such as Amethyst for meditation or intention setting. Obsidian and Smoky Quartz work well for releasing, and Rhodonite is a great choice for emotional healing.
5. Create Crystal Grids with Crystal Chips and Sacred Geometry
Sacred geometry holds immense power and symbolism, and combining it with crystal chips can amplify their effects. Print out tiny sacred geometry shapes, such as the Flower of Life or Seed of Life, and place crystal chips on the grids to create specific energy patterns. These mini crystal grids can be placed anywhere, allowing you to manifest your intentions effectively.
The SEED OF LIFE Grid, pictured here, consists of 6 interlocking circles, reminiscent of the beginnings of life (often compared to the 6 days of creation and the appearance of dividing cells). Perfect for Manifesting Dreams, you can use this grid when you have a specific goal with actionable steps that you want manifested within a clear time frame. This could include health and fitness goals, business growth, and attracting specific people and things into your reality. Learn more about Crystal Gridding in our recent blog posts.
Crystal chips offer a multitude of possibilities beyond their traditional use in roller bottles. By exploring alternative methods, such as incorporating them into tea light ceremonies or creating crystal grids, you can continue to enjoy the benefits of crystals and their energies. Embrace the versatility of crystal chips and discover new ways to enhance your spiritual journey!
