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.

One more for her family
I presented this Sacred Embers to a brother that got this for his brother. Their mom had passed away and this is the 4th Sacred Embers created for them. One was for the father/husband. I wish each of them peace.

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.

A client's thoughts.....
Received from Cheryl Eason: "Hi Carolyn,
I've been wanting to tell you in a personal message how much I love the handmade necklace that you made. My sister, Kristi Fylstra Kirschner couldn't have given be anything better. I love the reaction on peoples faces when they tell me how pretty it is and then I tell them whats in it. I just love thinking about my mom as I'm rubbing the warm glass...."
The reason that Sacred Embers is so important for me and such an honor.

A Mentor of Many
This gentleman was a father, husband, son, mentor......so many things to so many. His passion was reading and he loved cats and looked out for those that were not taken care of......human and four legged. He had special memories of Kaui. So very missed by every heart that he touched. He was so humble and did not know the scope of his touch.
May these bracelets and amulet bring peace when they are touched.......

Life's journey
These Sacred Embers are for a woman that is honoring a time in her life that truly shows it was not her time to leave this earth. She was a survivor of the Mt. St. Helen's eruption. One of the pendants contains ashes from that incredible moment.
Because of her survival of that major event she was placed in the life of Frankie her cat. He was only around for a short time but their connection in this life is very significant. The other pendant represents Frankie's coloring and eyes, as does the ring.
I pray that these bring peace and strength to this woman.

Thisby's Sacred Embers
Thisby was a precious black lab girl and these Sacred Embers are in her honor. The pendant is for her "sister" and the links are for her "brother". They will be incorporated into a jute bracelet. I'm sure that Thisby is romping in the fields and proud that she will be worn by her family.

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.

In honor of a longtime husband
I met with a lovely family that lost their father and husband. They were from England and listening to Rita talk about her beloved husband was a delight. It was important to complete her Sacred Embers in time to take with her to a big family event this coming weekend. Her Sacred Embers "glows from within". I hope that Rita's pendant brings peace to her in time because the pain she feels is still very evident.
Rita asked that I hold back some George's ashes so that if anyone else in the family would like a Sacred Embers created I would be able to do so immediately.

"He was my best friend"
A woman came to me with the ashes of her husband that had passed away just one year ago from cancer. She said, "He was my best friend". A friend of hers that is a hospice worker saw my card and brought it to her. The moment she saw it she realized she had known me years ago and she viewed that as a sign that this is what she was looking for. Today I presented her beautiful Sacred Embers to her. She was thrilled and moved and I could tell it was a difficult moment for her. I pray that her Sacred Embers brings her peace.

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.
