Birthing necklace

The birthing necklace was finished just in time.

These photos were taken by "Reflections Of Us" the night before labour inducement day, 2 days before baby Sampson was born.




Feeling the love, energy and spirit of my circle of women as I wore the beads they had chosen.



These photos show how precious this finished piece is to me. I wore it in the early stages of labour, surrounded by my Womenfolk.

I asked women friends and family from near and afar to post me a bead so that I could craft a necklace to wear while birthing. 

My intention is to wear the necklace during labour so that I can feel the energy and spirit of my circle of women at this time.

 I decided to knit it on wire in two strands (I have so many beads and medallions!).  It's started.
