Talking Beaded Mandalas

I'll be offering these up for sale or trade in a few days. I've just got a few Mama's who get first dibs.

**Cheryl's got dibs on the first one (pinks and purples) and the brown one**

Those are really pretty, Meeshi.

Has someone spoken for the middle one in the second picture? If not, what are you looking for in trade?

GORGEOUS! But I have a question, please forgive me if it's stupid, but what are these used for? I could see hanging one on my rear-view mirror, but what are they intended to be used for, or what are some alternate uses?

TIA!

Here's another round of mandalas! Thank goodness for naptime! I can get a lot done!

**Anne-Marie's got dibs on the brown one on the left!**

**Gwen's got dibs on the pentacle in the middle!**

**Cheryl's got dibs on the one on the right**


Beth, the beaded mandalas also make great suncatchers when hung in a window. People have hung them near their altar or nature tables for meditation or decoration. I've also made some that were used as focus objects during labor. You can hang them anywhere, from a rearview mirror, from a lampshade as an ornament in a tree....

**All in this pic are spoken for**

Oh, MEESHI! They're GORGEOUS!

Meeshi, I think they are beautiful! Any chance you'll have one in green and purple? I happen to love those colors and they help me to relax and refocus myself. I can trade or can paypal.
PLMK!

For others viewing this thread...

Here's what I've learned about Mandalas:
Quote:
Mandala is Sanskrit for whole world or healing circle. It is a representation of the universe and everything in it. Khyil-khor is the Tibetan word for mandala and means "center of the Universe in which a fully awakened being abides." Circles suggest wholeness, unity, the womb, completion and eternity.
Found here:

They are used for meditation, prayer, centering ones self, etc. Many cultures had their own version of a Mandala, including the Native American.
