For the first time in history, in the year 2009, more people on Earth lived in urban spaces than in rural areas. Scientists hoped that as more people moved to the city, the stress on forested lands would decrease, but, sadly, the opposite proved true.

With fewer people farming the land, agriculture became more mechanized. Urban people began to consume and demand more products requiring the clearing of more forests and so on.

Today, forests cover 31% of Earth's land, but we cut down an average of 2,400 trees every minute, and we destroy 18 million hectares of forest lands -- an area the size of Belgium -- every year.

In turn, we see soil erosion, water loss, habitat loss, animal extinction, especially those necessary to pollinate our crops, and an increase in climate change, excessive heat, and human diseases.

But there is hope. Many parts of the world, especially East Asian countries, are vigorously increasing their forested lands. They call it "rewilding" or returning degraded ecosystems to a wilder, healthier state.

Based on these trends, studies project that global forestation will increase by 10% -- an area the size of India -- by 2050.

Our urban expansion is indeed gobbling up our forests at an alarming rate, yet Earth-loving warriors are fighting to reforest and free our planet through rewilding.

A pretty good metaphor for our personal lives, when the pressures of work, technology, and modern urban life threaten to overwhelm you, it's time to practice a little rewilding ourselves.

Freeing your wild side can have beautiful results!

"Everything shipped fast and the packaging was beautiful!"

"I love my charm! And shipping was very fast! I will definitely be back to purchase more of the beautiful beads!"

"It's a great program for those who loves the experience to being surprised."

"The aptly name Brumal Fantasy, GOTM No.15, is the perfect bead for November. Breathtaking is the adjective that comes to mind as I look at my mesmerizing, crystal clear, triangular shaped glass bead. Every angle offers an exquisite view of beautiful, wintry colours peppered with silver sparkle. A stunning bead I will use often. Delighted!"
"Beadmail No.20 was a thrill to open! I love really detailed silver beads and this Time Sleigh has so much to admire. It has a steampunk feel, full of pipes, bolts, & other design elements. As someone who desperately hopes to find a vintage Sugar Sleigh bead, this one makes me very happy. Perfect for holiday bracelets or time traveler stylings."


"Love the colors of this glass! It pairs well with so many of my ohm glass!"

"Great program. I enjoy the new bead each month."

"I like the concept of OHM rock of the quarter. I must admit I saw much more beautiful ones in social media. Mine has not so much contrast and color in the stone. But that’s the game of blind bags. I like it anyway."

"5 stars +++++ One of the MOST beautiful glass beads in my collection! Just the dreamiest design; mesmerizing in every way! Phenomenal colour and complexity. Love!"


"My favorite beadmail yet! This is a creative and fun design! She’s perfect for fall! The details on this kitty are phenomenal! I’ve been wearing her constantly!"

"Love the creativity of this design."

"Love Beadmail 16. It ‘s the perfect bead for my travel bracelet and represents a recent family trip."

"Fantastic design for the hot summer. Swirls of light blue and white make me think of clouds, and waves with whitecaps. The ideal glass for hot weather stylings or stacks of blue. A great glass to receive from a fun blind bag subscription. Delighted!"

"I couldn't wait to get my first OROQ and was extra excited to know it would be a Tiger's Eye stone. At first I thought mine was a little dark but then...when I moved into the light, Carol Ann, oh...my...goodness!!! I think I got the best one ever!!! This is a spectacular stone, beautiful facets, and magnificent colouring! I am thrilled!!! The variation in the golden brown stone is incredible and dreamy! Fantastic!"

"I love all the Glass of the month beads, of course some of them more than others 😉 this one is really nice even if it’s not a 100 percent bead for me. But that’s the joy of surprise beads!"

"Lindo. Maravilhoso. Perfeito."

"I adore this GOTM! Such delicious colours swirled together like a Pucci dress. Donut shape is fun. I was really happy when I opened the box! Well done!"

"I have enjoyed the first year as an OG Beadmail Early Adopter. It has been full of wonderful surprises and lots of fun. I am looking forward to what the next year brings!"

"I love getting a surprise beadmail each month. Plus, sharing in the surprise and anticipation of the reveal with other beadmail subscribers is half the fun. Some of the designs have absolutely blown me away and I would have been heartbroken to miss out on them."

"It’s a cool concept! I do love that so much thought is put into making the beads. I love the backstories and learning."

"It is fun receiving a special surprise in the mail each month! As an adult, it is hard to have that little kid at Christmas feeling and this program gives me that feeling."
