Prayer Bowl

Give wings to your prayer
While you release your cares
Look within the small bowl
To remember angels love
And let it fill your soul.

Say a prayer
Write hopes dreams or sorrows on blank white paper
Fold and place in your bowl
Burn the paper
Say Thank You
Allow the miracle to happen


The above words are on a card that comes with the bowl.

This Prayer Bowl is one of my claims to fame. Its been seen in catalogs like Femail Creations, Heartbeats and Abbey Blessings. It has been sold to churches, women's groups, and various recovery groups nation wide.

I created the bowl in homage to my grandmother. I was her care giver for the last three years of her life. I watched her slip away from me as she battled Alzheimer's. Nine months before her passing she started to speak of going upstairs and the beautiful music she could hear from there. She kept looking for the door to take her upstairs.

The experience touched my life. I walked back into my studio after her death and had to create a piece in her honor. I come up with the bowl. It is based on the Japanese tea bowl and the Tibetan begging bowl. It is Raku fired because the process is transformation through fire like a phoenix rising from the ashes. The three angels and the instructions touch on many religions world wide. The purpose of the bowl is promote the universal language of love and understanding. A way to speak to upstairs!!!
