Personal, Meaningful, and Made by Hand: Custom Rosaries & Prayer Beads

Did you know that a custom rosary usually costs about the same as the ones listed in my shop? It’s true — a custom rosary or set of prayer beads is surprisingly affordable. Over the years, I’ve refined my pricing so I can offer something personal and beautifully made, using high-quality materials, while keeping itContinueContinue reading “Personal, Meaningful, and Made by Hand: Custom Rosaries & Prayer Beads”

The Spirit in the Sweetness: Honey as Sacred Symbol

It’s harvest time in many parts of the world. A time to savor the bounty of nature as days get a bit shorter and cooler. We begin to draw inward, slow down and prepare for winter. The call from Our Lady of Bees this season has me contemplating these threads of honey’s symbolism. Honey asContinueContinue reading “The Spirit in the Sweetness: Honey as Sacred Symbol”

Our Lady of the Bees: An Invitation to Community, Care & Joy

The world is so nuts and the last 6 months in the US – crazy town. I’ve felt every flavor of flight, fight, and freeze, sometimes cycling through them all in a single day. I ask myself “what can I do?” “is it enough?” over and over. If like me, you often feel helpless inContinueContinue reading “Our Lady of the Bees: An Invitation to Community, Care & Joy”

St. Francis of Assisi & the Octopus

I will continue to contemplate and discuss itContinueContinue reading “St. Francis of Assisi & the Octopus”

I have re-designed one of my most popularContinueContinue reading “Mental Health Prayer Poetry & Bees”

Ancestor Hoops: Using Beads for Ancestor Work

I am super excited to finally be able to share this!!! Many are called to ancestor work when needing guidance, support, healing, or connection. I get the sense that they want to reach us as well.

Self Compassion Meditation and Prayer Beads

The world has been extra crazy these last couple of years. How we navigate it can be expanded and made more bearable with a self compassion practice. I created these beads for just that. The beads chosen correlate to 5 ways to engage with compassion for yourself and then extend it out toward others. YouContinueContinue reading “Self Compassion Meditation and Prayer Beads”

Free Range Inspiration for Summer 2021

So I’m pretending to be an organized business with “seasons” just for fun. (Worth a shot right? lol😜) I’m just SO stoked to connect to Makuahine Nui (Great Mother) and co-create some new free-range rosaries, malas and chaplets this summer. Summer is almost here! More are people vaccinated and some places can see ahead toContinueContinue reading “Free Range Inspiration for Summer 2021”
