First Solo Bead Project!
Look what I made!!

I may finally have found a craft that I enjoy and am good at!!
This is a meditation strand, designed to anchor my morning meditation cycle, which starts in the underworld, goes through the four elements and the stars, and then centers me. I wanted a set of prayer beads because I do this before I get out of bed in the morning and sometimes I'm pretty foggy. I expect that beads to help me center and focus. I've never really tried doing something like this before.... We'll see if it works as expected.
Thousands of thanks to
oakmouse, who got me started on this, and who did such a good job of guiding me through my first project that a month later I was able to do this strand with the book simply as back-up confirmation! (The book is Pagan Prayer Beads by Clare Vaughn and John Michael Greer -- highly recommend if you want to try this craft!)
