These malas use smaller 8mm bone, horn, bayong wood, nut/seed or stone beads to create mindfulness beads that require a little more nimble-fingered concentration. The power of working with bone and horn beads comes through to me when I think about the humans before me that used these materials to create tools, jewelry and sacred religious relics. They felt it too, bearing witness to a life once lived and gone. I find practicing with these beads can remind us of our connection to nature, the earth and all beings.
I finished these malas with assorted focal bead designs and hand-tied tassels
or knotted ends.

Again I was inspired by the gorgeous translucent amber color of the horn, and the smooth coolness of the bone in these designs, but what I love the most about these beads is their size and heaviness. Using larger 10mm bone, horn, stone, nut, seed or bayong wood beads I designed Full and Wrist malas with assorted focal bead designs and hand-tied tassels. These heavier, more substantial beads used for more serious mindfulness practitioners.
