Traditional Sage Smudge Kit with Hand beaded Feather Fan.
*** The second photo is of my Husband and myself being smudged by the Red Blanket Man during our traditional, Metis wedding. We are both proud Metis people of Canada.
I have created these traditional smudge kits for those who are interested in the Traditional Indigenous way of smudging using all natural materials.
The feathers are ones that I have found on my property in Kinuso, Alberta. I have hand beaded them with my own designs. Each feather and design are unique and one of a kind combinations. The Red/White/Black feather is approximately 8 Inches long and the Black/Gold Feather is approximately 11 inches long.
The sage is Wild Silver Sage that I harvested myself in the Medicine Hat area of southern Alberta. It was harvested in the traditional way with prayers offered up and tobacco laid down prior to my harvesting it. I have bundled them into groups of 7 and tied them with cotton cord. The ends and pieces that came out of the bundles after drying were returned to Mother Earth. Each bundle is wrapped in plastic wrap to ensure that they do not come into contact with any negative energy and is approximately 9 inches long and 1 inch wide.
I have also included two information sheets, one is about the worldwide traditions and uses of sage and smudging in general. The second sheet is more in-depth into the Indigenous traditions of smudging including respectful handling of the sage.
I will be creating and adding different feathers/kits as I make them up, so if you would like a certain color or combination, please contact me and I will do my best to make your personalized kit for you. Currently both feathers are seagull and the color choices are black/gold and white/red/black.
I handcraft each and every piece myself from design to completion using only the highest quality materials. If you would like me to create a unique Smudge Kit just for you, please convo me ~ I LOVE doing custom Jewelry!
**NOTE: I process orders as they are purchased, so, depending on the size of my work que (how many orders ahead of yours) it can take me between 2 days to 2 weeks to create and ship your piece to you. I thank you in advance for your understanding of what truly handmade means and I appreciate your business.
Thank you for visiting my shop and Many Blessings!
