About the Shalom Tenugui:
A Tenugui is a long rectangular shaped cloth with a long history, traditional in Japan.
I designed this Shalom Tenugui, its something I have been wanting to do for long time, and recently had an opportunity to collaborate with a graphic designer who put my drawing into graphic form!
The design features the Hebrew letters which spell Shalom with a pattern of Cherry Blossoms in the letters. Around the Shalom in the background are graphics of Mt. Fuji, On-sen (hot spring mark), Challah (whole loaf), and a slice of challah. It can be used as a Challah Cover, a table runner, a decorative cloth, or to wrap a gift or to be a gift in itself.
This past Shabbat I used it as a challah cover. As you can see the little challah patterns reflect in the Challah itself. It came about as a personal expression of how Japan and Israel have been coming together in my life. A way to share a message of shalom and for all things to come together in God`s great Shalom!!
The flowers were gift from my daughter on thanksgiving day, though on that day it was actually Labor Day in Japan. So I would like to give a gift to you, please read the end of the post to find a fun giveaway!!
Wishing you a belated Happy Thanksgiving!
IF you are inspired to, please share your favorite scripture about Thanks or about Shalom (peace!) I will share one too,
Blessings and ....Shalom!,
ADONAI bless you and keep you!
ADONAI make His face to shine on you
and be gracious to you!
ADONAI turn His face toward you
and grant you shalom!
---Aaronic Benediction, Numbers 6:24~26

ReplyDeleteThe Tenugui blue piece of cloth with the word Shalom in hebrew, is an indication of your creative talent. The cherry blossoms within the letters , the graphics of Mt Fuji and the chala - are a great addition to the Tenugui cover. The design is perfect.
Blessings and Shalom to you too!
