Life overflows with Joy, Beauty, and Wisdom. These are the qualities that inspire me to create. Beckoned by inspirational themes and images, a deep soul-whispering partnership sweeps me up and I follow the impulse. My vision & voice, at this fragile and uncertain time of the world’s great turning, calls me to create with a dedication to Honoring Spirit & Loving Earth.

WEARABLE ART & HOME ACCENTS
Inspired by Universal Symbolism and the Spirit of the Southwest |
Living in the Enchanted Lands of New Mexico has me ALL FIRED UP with a passion for clay. Handbuilding is a technique of creating forms with hands and basic tools without a pottery wheel. This ancient method draws me into a creative zone where Vision & Voice from the past influence Vision & Voice of the present. Before the age of bling, ancient civilizations created primitive art as narratives of their lives. Petroglyphs and pictographs inspire the depictions and impressions of sacred connection that I create. I sculpt with primarily micaceous clay, containing flecks of mica, distinctive to the traditional Pueblo pottery of Northern New Mexico. Working with mud lights up my wild, playful, ancient soulfire!
MUD! MUD! MARVELOUS MUD!

BUNDLE BACKSTORY
Every culture has a form of prayer ritual. Prayer Books, Prayer Flags, Prayer Wheels, Prayer Stones, Prayer Ties, Prayer Shawls, Prayer Wands. I make Bundles of Prayer dedicated to spreading the Sacred Art of Blessing. I create Love Bundles, Baby Bundles, Gratitude Bundles, Forgiveness Bundles, Memory Bundles, Ceremonial & Celebration Bundles for all occasions.
In 2011, when Japan was hit by a 9.0 earthquake and 23-ft. tsunami, I learned of this catastrophe 6,749 miles away (as the crow flies) on the southeastern shoreline of CT. Feeling energetically interwoven with each departing soul, my heart cracked open with a tremendous outpouring of compassion. To assimilate the intensity of this experience, I prayed for a creative way to move the energy through me. Spirit responded with two words, ’Prayer Bundles.’ Suddenly, I was bound for the nearest fabric store, and later that day began designing and handcrafting bundles of prayer. This devastation charged me with a potent reminder to live more fully, care more deeply, and tend to what matters most with every precious breath received.

TESTIMONIALS
"Thank you, Renya Creations, for creating such inspired beauty and sharing it with the world.” -Analesa
“It’s the little things that matter most, and it’s in these simplest of things that you find the most beauty.” -Gaia Rose
“Renya wildcrafts plants and then wraps them in beautiful textiles, embellishing with feathers and yarn. Lovely way to scent a drawer, closet, or backpack with loving intentions and aroma. Thank you Renya!” -Chris
"It's not only the art, but the artist you support. Renya couldn't be any more worthy of it. Renya Creations are beautiful!" -Kennedy
“Wow! You power packed that prayer bundle. Every time I smell its incredible aroma, I realize that I'm feeling your blessing too. I live very close to Washington, DC where I long for more contact with nature on a daily basis. As a child, I felt my connection with pine trees and other sweet aromas of a forest. I know how much those infrequent experiences nourish me still. I connect with our precious earth so strongly when holding this bundle. So powerful and blessed to be more rooted with nature in this simple way.” -Marya
“When I first received a Prayer Bundle last Christmas, I simply loved its fragrance and softness. The power of the message is very inspirational, and I know it by heart. This world is very mixed up, and it’s easy to get caught up in the chaos leading to anxiety and illness. Learning to let go of certain matters that really have no significance gives us room and time to breathe. As time passes, I find myself handling my bundle more and more because it helps me find balance. Without fail, this sacred treasure continues to have a calming effect and brings me peace. The aroma hasn’t changed, and it amazes me that it still doesn’t show any signs of wear-and-tear. In my mind, we are on this planet to be kind and take care of one another. This heart-warming creation inspires harmony and the blessing of ~ Life Be Gentle With You.” -Nancy S.
“Your prayer bundles are unique as you are. The fragrance is wonderful, your packaging is beautiful. I wish you success, and feel so fortunate to have met you on your trip through the Northwest.” -Barbara
“I discovered these beautiful prayer bundles while on retreat in Abiquiu. They evoke the spirit and soul of the sacred land of New Mexico, and I wanted to spread the connection to sacred space far and wide. I ordered 20 prayer bundles and the order was fulfilled quickly and easily by Renya. Prayer Bundle blessings have been given to my family, closest friends, and life coaching clients. They have been so well received for the special gift they are. The blessings are returned many times to the giver. Renya’s work is truly inspiring.” -Carol
“Your Prayer Bundles are most beautiful. We bought one to give to the wife of one of our closest friends back East who just passed away. Keep on doing what you are doing. As a former business founder and owner of 33 years, I am inspired by what you have and are creating.” -JE
“I am a mother who lived through having my newborn baby in a NICU for the first weeks of her life. My baby is beautiful, healthy, and home; because of this I am a testimony to the power of prayer. These prayer bundles are perfect to hang over your baby’s crib or bassinet at home or in the hospital.” -Amanda

“Renya's personal attention to every detail assures that each bundle is infused with her own creative energy, and can be felt on a vibrational level. Although making a profit is a necessary aspect of any business, it is not Renya’s goal. Her true and primary mission is to share her heart with the world.” -Victoria
“We commissioned Renya to make 8 Prayer Bundles and we were delighted with the results. Each bundle is a unique mini work of art. They are all exquisite ~ beautifully crafted, professional, and full of good medicine. Thank you for your beautiful work.” -Teri
“Renya is a woman of heart and soul. I knew I had to have one of her prayer bundles when I was about to publish and launch my new book 'Resilient Heart: Transcending the Death of Your Loved One.' I told her my prayer was for my message to reach the hands and hearts of those it can comfort and support. She sent the perfect bundle in my favorite purple color and even found a feather with a heart on it! Holding my bundle I feel the care and love with which it was created. I kept it close during the busy publishing and launch time. It worked and 'Resilient Heart' is now a #1 International Bestseller. I keep my sacred bundle here on my desk where I write. I highly recommend a prayer bundle for a gift for a friend needing extra prayers or to celebrate a special occasion sending out prayers of gratitude.” –Gail

“Renya asked how a custom prayer bundle could intentionally support me. Oh, my, the list that flew in was long. And then I knew, ease, inner & outer trust and clarity. Raven and peacock are spirit allies. I’m honored to receive their feather energy and blessing. This prayer bundle is truly one for my senses too. The combination of colors & textures delights me. And I love the aroma of the botanicals that bathe the air. Thank you for this prayerful gift.” -Heloise

“Renya, I’m almost speechless. The intention-infused Birthday Bundle you sent is awesome. It’s affecting my heart, and arrived at just the right moment. The bundle heals me as I hold it. I love the combination of herbs inside. Your intuition of fabric design and type of feather to include is significant. This sacred bundle is a deeply honoring personalized gift. Keep doing what you’re doing. Keep making these bundles!” -Page
