Smudge Sticks and Oils

Smudge Sticks      

Sage and sweetgrass are sacred plants that have been burned for centuries in ceremonies of cleaning, clearing, and blessing. Sweetgrass braids can be used on traditional bustles, burned as incense, or placed with dance clothes for a sweet, long lasting fragrance. White sage ignites easily, burns steadily, has a distinctive, mellow scent, and has many medicinal uses. We now also offer beautiful iridescent Pacific Ocean Abalone Shells, used for smudging with sage and other botanical herbs. 4-5 inches long x 1-3 inches deep.
