Peace and love - warm copper offering retailer bowl with small mat

when your heart is filled with love
& your mind is filled with peace
you will find it inconceivable
to harm another.

----------
offerings have a way
of travelling.

these came to me and
the idea wouldn't leave.
so through my heart and hands
small offering bowls are now made -

i often tremble
when i begin,
the potential energy
of body and spirit
coming to a readiness.

as i stamp
fire
hammer
fire
hammer
repeat
repeat
...

these thoughts
words and ideas
are
set out into the ether.

the ether
that you inhabit
the ether
that holds the moon
the ether
that caresses blades of grass
as it moves past.
i have always found a deep sense of peace
when working with my hands.

but this idea of small metal efforts
that are shaped like cupped hands
and have
been retailer worked with
not just fire
and steel
but love
and peace

so that you might make an offering
to whatever is meaningful in your life

and to take it wherever you need it

resonates.

bowl measures approx. 2 3/4" across
all are slightly different in color as that is determined by flame and quenching.

each bowl arrives in a hand stitched pouch that serves as a small mat. the final picture serves an an example.
