As Seen on The Vampire Diaries
In 2013, the Garnet Moon Necklace gained worldwide recognition when it was worn by fan-favorite Nina Dobrev in an episode of The Vampire Diaries. This wasn't just any feature—it was my first-ever jewelry placement on TV, and it changed everything. I still remember showing my kids the design I was sending to the show. Months later, we watched the episode together, and when Nina appeared on screen wearing the necklace, I literally screamed. It was surreal, unforgettable, and the beginning of a very magical journey.
A Design Close to My Heart
The Garnet Moon Necklace holds a special place in my heart. Each piece is handmade by me and beaded with genuine garnet stones—loved for their "steady fire" energy: grounding, protective, and quietly bold. The half-moon pendant, handcrafted in Bali, adds a touch of celestial elegance. I've sold thousands of these over the years, and every single one still feels as special as the first. I've also been working with the same artisan family for over 10 years.

Maker's Note · As Seen on TV
These aren't "inspired by" TV looks — they are my original designs that were actually worn on screen. I began as Jewelry by Andrea, spent over 12 years creating as Andrea Kelly Designs, and today you know my work as Mystic Soul Jewelry. Through every name, it has always been me at the bench, designing and handcrafting each piece.
I created these necklaces and earrings in my studio and sent them to costume teams with nothing but hope. The first time I saw my jewelry on TV — moving from an idea in my mind, to metal and stone in my hands, and then onto beloved characters on shows like The Vampire Diaries and Bones — I was completely over the moon. I had no idea the matching green agate earrings and necklace would even be used, let alone air in the same week on two different shows.
When you wear an As Seen on TV piece from Mystic Soul Jewelry, you're not just recreating a look — you're wearing a small part of my artisan journey and the "dream to reality" energy that went into every detail.
✨ As seen on The Vampire Diaries | Garnet Moon Necklace — devotion · protection · steady fire.
Affirmation: I trust my dreams to move from my heart, through my hands, and into reality.
