Prayer Chain Necklace
There are times in my life when I find that words aren’t enough. Times when friends or family are hurting and I don’t know what to say or do or how to make things right again in their world. These are times when I retreat into the stillness of my studio and begin wire-wrapping beads ~ and praying. When I’m finally ready to re-emerge, I have finished a bracelet or a necklace and gift it to the person I was praying over. Each bead gets lovingly wrapped with prayers for comfort and healing, strength and peace. 
This is one of my Prayer Necklaces. Created for someone very close and dear to me ~ my Dad. I wear it to remind me of who is was, is, and will always be to me. He was a gentle and good man ~ Loved his family ~ Was dedicated to my Mom and us three girls. He diligently worked hard to put food on our table and a roof over our heads. He and my mom instilled values in us that we have subsequently passed along to our kids ~ honesty, integrity, faithfulness, compassion, respect, and so on.
This is for you, Dad. Wrapped in love and rememberance. Created with purpose and intent. Just for you ~ because of who you will always be to me.
