Finally, my prayer flags are complete, and blowing in the wind. After beginning them on the Taurus New Moon, I continued working on them throughout the week to follow.
Part II - More of My Process
There was a lot of painting and stamping to be done. Then arranging and sewing, with which I had a huge helping hand from The Snail (see her fabulous prayer flags here), as I don't sew yet.
Part III - My Product
Finally, I hung my flags on the back porch, my vision realized. Now sweet blessings of love, bliss, joy, peace and unity are being spread to all.
Part IV - A Long Line of Flags
My heart is full of joy as my New Moon Sisters join me in hanging their beautiful prayer flags outdoors.
These belong to The Snail, who stamped hers with a hand-carved wood block stamp bearing a symbol of protection.
These are The Visionary's hand-painted blessings, featuring original symbols and phrases.
And here are another mama's, created with fabric that corresponds to hand-written affirmations.
This is most likely the final prayer flag post (but I don't make any promises). This project, and the opportunity to share it, has brought me huge satisfaction and joy. I have visions of prayer flags all over the world, blowing sweet blessings to all. May many reach you!
*If you've created prayer flags of your own, I'd really love to see them. Please post a link or email me your handiwork!
