Whether you buy it for your own collection or as
a gift for someone you love, the message is the

challenges confront you.
This basket contains a sweetgrass prayer braid,
a sweetgrass smudger and a mussel shell, heart
(glass or stone.)
To use the prayer braid, light the end and blow
or let it burn out. Holding it over a fire safe
container, send your thoughts, prayers and
wishes up with the smoke, as you face each of
the 4 directions. As the smoke rises visualize
you're prayers going up and out into the
universe.
End your prayers with a word of thanks
(woliwoni) and a feeling of gratitude.
