Prayer Pouches



Prayer Pouches I made for an exchange in Belle Papier. I wasn't sure when I started exactly what they were or how they were made so there are a few different techniques. Prayer Pouches are small pouches that hold a prayer for the individual. They are sealed and were worn as amulets to protect the wearer. I enjoyed making these so much I made extras to give to friends who are having a difficult time for some reason. My husband and granddaughter both wanted their own so made them one and put special prayers inside for each of them. Along with the prayers, I add some Lavender from my garden and Rosemary, for rememberence.
