Thank you Bell

Thank you for your help and assistance.  It has made a positive difference.  Please accept this bell as a token of appreciation.  Each time it rings, it is sending you our tanks for your lasting contributions.

The bell is handmade in America of bronze and the parts are brass and copper.  It will last forever outside.  Hang it on a porch or in a tree and leave it year round to find the breeze and report on nature's pulse and our sincere appreciation.

Knowing you is a gift.

Anniversary Bell

Most cultures worldwide see the heart as the true center of the self.  Moreover, the double heart is symbolic of ongoing relationships and the opportunity, over many years, for one soul to evolve in the presence of another.

Consequently, in like company there exists a shared heartbeat, the fundamental tempo for poetry, song, music, and dance.  Its rhythm insists that life be lead at a soulmaking level in a place filled with enormous joy and inevitable sorrow.  May this bell sound that heartbeat here, now and forever.

Retirement Bell

You have worked hard all your life and earned this opportunity to enjoy retirement.  To be free from work requirements permits other aspects of life to take precedence, opening up new arenas to convert your life dreams into reality.  Your time is liberated from work schedules to YOUR time.  Relax and set new life priorities as simply as a soaring bird glides through the sky.  Let his bell help you relax as you tune into nature's pulse via the wind.

Remembrance Bell

Angels are intermediaries between Heaven and Earth, symbolizing our souls' passage to the starry heavens, and stars represent spirits of those who have passed on, shimmering in the night sky.  As Mother nature's breath, the wind, gives ringing voice to this Remembrance Bell, may it bring to mind not only the spirits who have ascended to the evening galaxies but also the timeless continuities of life flowing from our ancestors through us to our descendants.

Freedom Bell

The United States of America is the world's oldest democratic republic, deriving its strength from traditions of freedom and equality.  The eagle, our majestic symbol of freedom, soars on updrafts of wind, then dives decisively when moved to action.  On behalf of all throughout the world who value freedom, equality and democracy, we are steadfast in the vigilant struggle to keep the world a safer place as our nation continues its long tradition of acting decisively in its defense.  Let the same wind that carries our glorious eagle aloft in free flight bring to mind thoughts of our precious freedom when you hear it ring this Freedom Bell.

Friendship Bell

This bell rings with the joy and laughter of friendship.  Like an outstretched hand, which in times past signified an absence of weapons, it offers the peach and safety of a trusted relationship.  And as with friendship, either a gentle breeze or gale force wind may call forth its sound; or it may rest in silence, waiting for the perfect moment to toll its unique support.

Souls unite in sacred sound, and the Friendship Bell's purpose is to carry this union across space and time into the present.  May our friendship be remembered in its ringing.

Housewarming Bell

The term housewarming comes from the old custom of hanging up a pot-hook.  It was our ancestors' gesture which preceded their igniting a central fire for the light and for warmth, thereby creating the heart of the home.  Hanging up this Housewarming Bell is intended to do the same, to transform a house into a home, by establishing harmony between occupant and dwelling through repetitive, peaceful, sacred sound.  With each and every ring a positive connection is amplified.

As your sense of place is echoed in the bronze of the bell, the heart of your home will grow stronger.  May a song of gratitude be carried on the wind.

 

Gardeners Bell

It is universally believed that bells have forever driven away bad spirits and called upon good ones, and this Gardener's Bell is no exception.  By attracting the spirits of air (a soft breeze), of fire (warm sunlight), of water (rain plus a little help from the watering can), and of earth (rich soil), its pleasant vibrations are conducive to growing healthy plants.  Moreover, this bell's melodic ringing puts anyone aspiring to a green thumb directly in touch with the natural rhythms of Mother Nature.

May you dance in Her beautiful garden, rejoice in a bountiful harvest, and in so doing, may you cultivate your soul.

Peace Bell

Church bells ring, calling people together for prayer. Meditation bells help one focus inward and calmly pay attention to life's rhythms. A beautiful bell tone can clear your mind permitting you to sense an inherent peace common in all living things. This bell, rung by the wind, adds the commonality we all share, Mother Nature's pulse, bringing each of us closer to our inner vibration and in tune with our spirit. As each of us becomes more peaceful we contribute one by one to a harmonious future, represented here with the universal image for peace - the Peace dove. Think and focus on peace when Mother Nature rings this bell.

Kitty Angel Bell

Too briefly, your beloved cat is with you, your loyal companion and steadfast friend in good times and bad. It is hard to say goodbye when they depart this life to join the other angels. But nothing is stronger or more rewarding than the unconditional love of your cat. Those pawprints on your heart never go away.

Some say that cats are born already knowing how to be friends. So their time on earth is shorter than ours, because we humans need time to learn. Like the other angels, our cat occupies a space in our lives forever. The sound of the bell alerts you that your faithful friend is always with you.

May time and memories of your special moments together comfort you and may your sorrow grow lighter with each passing day. And may this bell always remind you that the spirit of your cat is with you always.

"EVERY TIME A BELL RINGS
AN ANGEL GETS ITS WINGS"

"HEAR the sleigh of Santa with its bells, silver bells!
What a world of merriment their melody foretells!
How they tinkle with delight, in the glory of this night!
All the heavens seem to twinkle,
Santa's smile is all a-crinkle,
While his bells go tinkle, tinkle,
On this night when all is right.

HEAR the singing and the ringing of the bells, churchly bells!
What a world of peace and joy within them dwells!
How they toll and how they roll - the deepest hopes of human soul -
All the world vibrates with love,
Our Christmas gift from up above,
All the bell sounds blend in gold,
To join that glorious sound of old.

Transformation Bell

The mythological Phoenix was a glorious bird that was believed to rise forth from its own ashes at the end of its life, born anew.  The Phoenix still symbolizes the renewal of the body, mind, and spirit.  In many ways a bell can herald transformation, whether it be the ceremonial bells of graduation, the bells of a new hour, or the welcome ring of a friend at the door.

With each ring of the Transformation Bell , the positive changes in our lives are celebrated and the changes we need are welcomed in.  May this bell ring out in melodious harmony, reminding you of your own accomplished transformations and inspiring you with the power to continue rising forth.

 

Fairy Bell    Enchanting Little Folk

The land of the fairies, full of mystery and delight, has music and dancing and games through the night.  Where charming, mischievous, meddlesome folks, whirl and twirl and play sweet music and jokes.       The little folk, braced with the gift of foresight, spin and weave the destiny of each person's life.          May your garden be blessed with alluring portends of fairies, who bring you good luck and good friends.

 

New Baby Bell 

Welcome to our World, Little One!
Mothers and fathers - you are the appointed guardians of new life. What new joys and sorrows will this new life bring? May you be blessed with all that you need to love, nurture, and teach your child to live blissfully, to take from what the world has to offer, and contribute much to others' lives. Such a precious gift is a child, whose innocence teaches us humility and whose sense of wonder nourishes our appreciation of all that is worthy in the world.

Doggy Angel Bell

Too briefly, your beloved dog is with you, your loyal companion and steadfast friend in good times and bad. It is hard to say goodbye when they depart this life to join the other angels. But nothing is stronger or more rewarding than the unconditional love of your dog. Those pawprints on your heart never go away.

Some say that dogs are born already knowing how to be friends. So their time on earth is shorter than ours, because we humans need time to learn. Like the other angels, our dog occupies a space in our lives forever.

The sound of the bell alerts you that your faithful friend is always with you. May time and memories of your special moments together comfort you and may your sorrow grow lighter with each passing day. And may this bell always remind you that the spirit of your dog is with you always.

Mother's Bell

When I hear the bell, my heart remembers you and the Mother's love you expressed in countless ways over endless days. I hear your voice soothing hurts, reading stories, sharing memories. I recall with childish pleasure parties and presents and goodnight kisses. But most of all I cherish how you taught me to live in the world, gave me freedom to grow and the desire to learn and wise counsel when I faltered. On this day set aside to celebrate Mothers, I ring the bell in honor of you, offer heartfelt thanks for attentions you lavished on me, and promise to use all you gave me wisely and well, as a testament of my love for you
