Pine has been used in magic and healing practices for hundreds of years, and in Celtic mythology and is known as a tree for protection and forgiveness. Scots pine has a long and rich history in mythology. The ancient Egyptians buried an image of the god Osiris in the hollowed-out centre of a pine tree. As a symbol of royalty, the pine was associated with the Greek goddess Pitthea. Pine was also a fertility symbol and was linked to the Dionysus/Bacchus mythology surrounding the vine and winemaking. As an evergreen tree, the pine also symbolised immortality. In the Ogham, pine is associated with the symbol of Ailm, which is said to represent strength, health, fertility, and purity.
 
I value the gifts given by the Spirits and always hold gratitude ceremonies for them. I carefully listen to the Earth and the Spirits to express what needs to be created at any time.
Every single item created here is unique in its own way, so if you are looking for perfection, I unfortunately cannot offer that, as every imperfection is beautiful in its own way.
I am passionate about caring for the environment and will always try to use ethical packaging that isn't harmful to the Earth and all living beings.
