Power & Beauty through Crystals
Parksville Downtown has a hidden expertise, a unique store for folks looking to explore the world of
crystals and stonework, spirituality and home spaces, rituals and healthy living. Crafty Crystals, across
from Scotia Bank, offers a wide selection of personal use and gift items exploring mineral elements and
their artistry — a treasure-trove of nature’s beauty.
Health & Wellness in Serenity & Sanctuary
“We carry every option in crystals you can imagine,” owner, Cindy Clarke explained. “Crystals are
categorized by colour, veins, density, size, and post-extraction shaping. We have towers, cathedrals,
spheres, bowls, enhydros, bracelets, carvings, and raw crystals. Every crystal is different — sometimes
our customers are looking for energy and specific properties. But many of the items we carry are simply
perfect for enhancing a room and bringing out the perfect home décor mood.”
Crafty Crystals carries a wide variety of special gift items. From abstract paintings to art cards, jewelry,
wire tree sculptures, clay and crystal mushrooms, luminary beeswax bowls, soy wax candles and votives,
lapidary carvings — there’s always something new in-store. In the beginning, we started with live sales
on Esty and expanded to other social media platforms. Our customers still love our ‘Build a Basket’
online sales where we display our crystals and artwork,” Clarke said.
So Much More than Beautiful Home Decor
Crafty Crystals carries crystal grids, pendulums, tools for spiritual practices, altar items, dice, and
cauldrons. “Each crystal has its own purpose. Practitioners come to us because we have a large selection
of the best quality,” Clarke said. “Crystals can help with everyday life. They’re used in Reiki practices,
during meditation, sometimes for tactile healing procedures, or to wear as an expression of spiritual
health and tranquility.”
Plant-based items also have a unique place in establishing a healthy, holistic, and creative home
environment. Palo santo bundles can be used for their gentle, cedar-like scent in smudging ceremonies.
Soursop is used in bath bombs, deodorant, and other hand-crafted items, and it has a reputation for
augmenting the effectiveness of chemo and cancer treatments. Crafty Crystals specializes in local
artisans, handmade items, a relaxed shopping experience, and earthy vibes.
