This unprecedented Summer has been like any other. Furthermore, the season has seemed to both drag on and fly by. We can’t believe it’s already August! While things seem to get weirder and scarier, there is still much to be thankful for and many ways to savor the rest of Summer 2020 while staying safe. Trust us, this wasn’t how we planned our Summer this year either, but Stephanos is all about flow and positivity, and we know that there is so much healing power in finding the good within any situation. With that in mind, here are a few suggestions for how to make the most of the weirdest Summer ever, with love from us to you!

As entrepreneurs and small business owners, Stephanos knows a thing or two about working from home. We’ve been doing it since long before this unprecedented time, so it’s definitely not new to us. But we understand that for many people, transitioning to working at your humble abode from your previous work environment can be challenging and confusing. Not to toot our own horns, but we do consider ourselves to be experts on this subject, so we thought we’d use that expertise to bring you a collection of tips for making the transition to working remotely smoother and more comfortable.

Mother’s Day is one of the most treasured holidays of the year. It’s a chance to show the women who raised us the appreciation they so deserve, to shower them with love, and remind them of how much they mean to us. This year, Mother’s Day is going to be very different across the globe. With quarantine orders in place all around the world, flattening the curve means we won’t be able to celebrate with our wonderful mothers in person (unless we are fortunate enough to already live with them), and that will likely leave a yearning in our hearts and the hearts of moms everywhere. But all hope is not lost, as there are myriad ways we can still honor our mothers and show them we love them this Mother’s Day from a safe distance. It just means we have to get creative and embrace a positive mindset to make the most of a strange and unique situation.
With that in mind, we’ve taken the liberty of compiling five ways you can celebrate Mother’s Day while staying at home and staying safe. Even though it means sacrificing your annual Mother’s Day brunch or a trip to the spa with your mom, doing the right thing will mean we can all be together sooner. So take heart, and remember that there are still plenty of ways to celebrate Mother’s Day this year!

In these uncertain times, the whole world seems to be in a state of stress and anxiety. We all have our own personal struggles relating to what’s happening on the planet today, and each situation is unique. But one thing we all have in common is that as humans, each and every one of us must practice self-care to help us get through this. Staying at home can present a varying set of challenges, and can definitely impact our mental and physical wellness. We do not have the same rituals and comforts that we did at the beginning of 2020...

At Stephanos, we are BIG fans of pearls. Pearl jewelry has been adorned and adored since as early as 2300 BC, and for us, it’s easy to see why. These rare, timeless gems are used in most of our handcrafted jewelry - in fact, we’d go so far as to call them our main muse, and we find pearls intriguing for reasons that extend far beyond their eye-catching beauty. In celebration of the precious pearl, we have rounded up five fascinating facts about them.

One of our favorite semi-precious stones, Amazonite.
For many years, the source of amazonite's color was mysterious. Some people assumed the color was due to copper because copper compounds often have green and blue colors. This mysterious color is mesmerizing and can be coupled with other stones to make beautiful jewelry pieces.
