To smudge is to purify with smoke. Purifying with the fragrant aroma of herbs has been practiced for centuries. Smudge yourself, your home, the objects you give away and receive. Sage draws out negative energy and Juniper and other herbs attract positive energy as it purifies and protects. The herbs in this package have been harvested in an ecological manner from high mountains and valleys of the southwest. Smudge sticks, wrapped in 100% cotton string, are packaged in recyclable materials. Because they are foraged, rolled, trimmed and packaged by hand, slight differences may occur. Customers have the option to choose between a "Small" pack which contains two 5″ smudges or a "Large" which contains one 9″ smudge. These packs are flexible and can be mixed and matched to meet the specific needs of your store. Caution: Burning embers are a fire hazard. Use only under adult supervision.
