Captions from a SHALOM FANS Show!!

Not in any particular order, I am posting some photos from my recent SHALOM FANS show!! It was an invitation for people to come and greet each other with the Hebrew word, SHALOM and make their own "SHALOM" fans!!  And they (the people!) in turn became "fans of SHALOM"!! You will see some such fan-fare in the captions!! Enjoy! And please take some origami paper and color pencils and a blank fan and make your own!! 
The event was on the first day of Elul, hence this Elul fan (right, above)  with the scripture from Song of Songs!
Welcome! Hello ! Shalom

A little elementary school girl made this Shalom fan, she wrote the word herself, seeing it in the gallery, Shalom!!

A lot of origami paper of different patterns was set out to use for one side of the fan, and to use in collage on the designs.  Give your fan a unique Japan flair in combination with the Hebrew words and Jerusalem theme.



One visitor made this drawing, and the words in Japanese say "Beautiful, like a flower blossoming"

Today!

Shayndel and Shirah!

PALM TREES, decorating the walls, became "PSALM TREES"You are invited to write out a Psalm and add it to the trees!! PSALM TREES!


GOD IS LOVE!
Fan made by a Shalom fan who came to the exhibit
Photos display from my Israel trip, from Jerusalem and the Sea of Galilee, including a few with "Shalom Fans!", palm trees.   There are places where Yeshua walked and will return

Painted fan!  "Morning Glories"  to me they are a flower of "ELUL" and speak of God's mercies new every morning!!

JERUSALEM FAN, EAST GATE, on display with a gold ribbon!
Fan made by a child visitor to the show and workshop, can you see that she wrote SHALOM!! The newest "SHALOM fan!!"   Doubly!! A "fan" of shalom and a "shalom fan"

The other side of Shalom---Love!!! and a little peek at the artist of the fan!
One visitor and friend worked diligently on this origami collage JERUSALEM Fan!! So exciting to see new Jerusalem fans!! Yes, that's another double or triple entendre!! NEW JERUSALEM fan, New JERUSALEM fan , and a "new fan" of Jerusalem (i.e. the one who made it).  It doesn't take much to become a Jerusalem fan!! First, turn your heart to the Apple of God's eye.  Next see how brilliant she is and you will see the glistening colors and hills come alive, and you will want to return and Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem!

Glimpse into the Gallery, songs played on guitar,   praising our Prince of Peace, Sar Shalom, Yeshua

AHAVA= LOVE in Hebrew
AHAVA fan!! Fan of Love!! On display!

SHIR= Song in Hebrew
SHIRAH= Sing! A Bi-lingual Fan!  On display!


Blessings and Shalom!!

Love,
Shayndel

  1. Your Shalom fans exhibition is a great idea! Maybe Israel should sponsor your activity. Have you invited the people from the israeli embassy and consulate? Or perhaps there's some Japan-Israel friendship league which could back your show.
    Anyway, lovely photos!

  3. I suppose all the action and activities are in Tokyo and Kyoto. But you can find out whatever interests you online, by googling things. I haven't got your talents, so I woudn't know how to market my work.
    Have a terrific week!
