Megan the Black and White Cocker

Megan was the best friend that you always looked for in life!  She loved to romp in the outside and her inside activities included The Food Network channel and watching about pet rescues.  She was one smart cookie!  Megan only had one bad habit, she LOVED to get into the garbage.

Angels Bringing Others Close

This Sacred Embers has a bit more personal meaning to me.  Don’t get me wrong, all of the Sacred Embers that I create mean so much to me, but this was a bit different.  Someone that my brother had known MANY  years ago (my brother being the “spark” of Sacred Embers), contacted me to create a Sacred Embers for her because her very special kitty, Buddy had  passed away.  It was such a wonderful thing to talk with her because it was another connection to my brother.  I thank  you David, I now have another friend.

Ms. Kitty

Ms. Kitty was their first "child" together....She greeted everyone that walked by on the sidewalk for so many years.  Everyone knew who the big fluffy, blue-eyed sweetie was.  A tragic day took her too early. 

I pray that these Sacred Embers bring peace and keep the many memories alive forever.  When she rests under the lilac tree, hold your pendant......know that she is with you.   

Sacred Embers Pendants

These were the most difficult Sacred Embers I have ever created.  I didn't realize how much energy I actually get from the information I receive about the person (or pet).  This case I was contacted by Haven of Rest in Gig Harbor, WA and they gave me the name of the gentleman and that the recipients wanted blue Sacred Embers but I didn't have the other pieces of the "puzzle".  (In the future they will get this other information for me).  I think they are beautiful.  

When I delivered them today the staff loved them. I hope that the recipients also love their Sacred Embers & that they find peace when they touch them.

Maui Nuptials

This Sacred Embers was created for a beautiful woman that was recently married.  Her mom collected some sand from the spot on the beach where the couple stood and exchanged their vows.  The pendant represents the Maui ocean and sunset and the beauty of their union.

The mom that loved Reeces Peanut Butter Cups

I created 2 Sacred Embers for a beautiful souled woman that I have come to know.  One pendant was for her sister and one for herself, created with the ashes of their mom.  The mom that loved Reeces Peanut Butter Cups.  Apparently she was quite something that Mary Helen.  She was described as a "bling girl"....she loved color and bling!  She was a mom, a wife & madly in love with her husband, a grandma, a sister and just amazing!  When I presented her with the Sacred Embers pendants I also added some Reeces.......just felt it was part of the package!  

I look forward to hearing the sister's reaction when she receives her Sacred Embers pendant. 

In honor of a mom

Just delivered this Sacred Embers to a woman.....the ashes were of her mother. She opened the box and was so thrilled. She gave me a hug and the tears started. But the smiles were immeasureable!  She told me that her mom used to be a teacher and played the organ for the church.  I hope that this piece brings peace and strength to this very elegant woman.

Sacred Embers for LouLou

My client brought me the ashes of her sweet dog LouLou that was her friend for a long 12 years.  The pain was so clear through the tears and smiles as she told me about LouLou and showed me pictures of her life.  She will obviously be terribly missed but I feel that her Sacred Embers pendant will bring her peace.  When I presented it to her she thought it was beautiful and I could tell by her warm hug that she was pleased. 

The connections that I am blessed in making when I receive ashes and create and present a Sacred Embers to someone is so amazing.  I truly cannot put it into words so that anyone could really understand what I feel.

My sweet friend Linda Gainey

My friend Phil had a wonderful wife that was my friend.  She passed away many years ago suddenly.  Phil brought me ashes to create a Sacred Embers for himself as well as his son.  This has been a huge honor for me.  I miss Linda.  And when I told Phil that I would return the extra ash to him he told me that he thought I might like to have it.  Of course, this brought me to tears.  I think these Sacred Embers are beautiful. 

Lucky's Sacred Embers

Tomorrow I will deliver a beautiful Sacred Embers to a woman that is getting her mom a pendant created with the ashes of Lucky their dog.  Her mom is really missing Lucky and she feels this will help her mom to feel that Lucky is with her.  This will be a most special Christmas gift.

Sacred Embers

Luna's Sacred Embers

A wonderful couple came to me with the ashes & some hair of their sweet Newfie, Luna.  Luna loved the water and her green toy.  Her parents miss their baby Luna so much.  I know that the pendant and amulet will bring both of them a certain amount of peace. Certainly will not erase the pain but ease it each time they touch their Sacred Embers.   I think you can "see" Luna in the water with her green toy if you look hard enough.

Donald's Sacred Embers

Today I gave the Sacred Embers done in honor of Donald the horse.  Circumstances were a bit difference and I created the Sacred Embers with some of Donald's mane hair.  I know that Donald is in very green pastures now.............running free! 

Many Sacred Embers

Here is a collection of some of the Sacred Embers that I have personally done for myself. There are so many options, all so very personal and unique.

Here are pendants, window ornaments (or suncatchers), a dish. Each one-of-a-kind.

Sacred Embers for Petey and his mom

This is a Sacred Embers done for Annette Lanker for herself and Petey. Annette has a pendant and Petey has a dog tag with the ashes from his amputated leg in the Sacred Embers. A way to make this sweet baby "whole" again.

Email about Sacred Embers

This is a portion of an email that I received today from the woman that had her dogs' leg cremated after it was amputated. I created 2 Sacred Embers for her. The pendant for her and the tag for the dog.
Again showing why I take Sacred Embers so very seriously and feel it is an honor each and every time.
" Thanks so much for doing this and I LOVE how you described it in your blog. You summarized my feelings/wishes perfectly - I wanted to make Petey whole again in a way that medicine wasn't able to. Wow! You get it!"

A very special Sacred Embers

A woman that I met loves her sweet dog very much. The dog had been hit by a car and ultimately she lost her leg. I had the request to make a Sacred Embers for the woman and a Sacred Embers "tag" for the dog with the ashes from her leg. This way she will always be whole.

I'd like to mention that her dog is doing very well. And soon she will have her special Sacred Embers on her collar! I feel so very blessed to have these incredible stories to share and the amazing people that I am able to meet in this journey of Sacred Embers.

These Sacred Embers were very special and interesting, they all are. But this woman contacted me from California and wanted Sacred Embers to honor her daughter that passed away from Cystic Fibrosis. Due to the wonder of Facebook I was able to learn more about her daughter (even though we talked for a very long time on the phone). One pendant has her daughter's ashes, the other pendant has their cat & daughter's ashes and the amulet is for her husband with just the cat's ashes. And the most wonderful part is that she was coming to Washington state and I was able to deliver the Sacred Embers to her in person! So very much touched my heart. I feel that I have made a new friend for life. Again, proving to me the incredible journey that Sacred Embers is taking me on.

Maddie's Grandma's Sacred Embers

This is a very special Sacred Embers for a very special girl.

Sacred Embers with both parent's ashes

I created these 2 Sacred Embers for a woman that is giving them to her husband and her sister inlaw. At first it was just going to be a pendant for her sister inlaw with the ashes of her parents but then she thought her husband would like an amulet to keep in his pocket, so he too, could have his parents close.

She just sent me a message and she just gave him the amulet and he began to cry. I am so lucky to help create closure and very special moments for others.
