Welcome to ZenWrockz Blog!
I’m so excited to share my passion for the art of wrapped rocks and how this unique craft combines the beauty of nature with creative design. Whether you’re a fan of natural stones, a seeker of zen energy, or simply someone who appreciates handmade artistry, you’re in the right place.
What Inspired Me
The journey of creating wrapped rocks began with my love for nature and a desire to work with materials that resonate with grounding energy. There’s something magical about transforming a simple stone into a meaningful piece of art. Wrapping them with leather cord isn’t just a creative process—it’s a way to honor the earth’s timeless wisdom and beauty. I actually started wrapping rocks while with my family on our annual camping trip. Once I completed my first wrapped rock, I was hooked! It was my daughter who encouraged me to pursue this art more intently and before I knew it my wrapped rocks were in art shows, galleries and gift shops. I havent stopped wrapping since then!
The Tradition Behind Wrapped Rocks
Wrapped stones were at one time used to mark a path leading to a specific garden. They also draw inspiration from Japanese traditions of stone appreciation, such as suiseki and Zen practices. These traditions emphasize the harmony between man-made art and natural forms, encouraging mindfulness and balance. Every wrap I design is infused with intention, whether it symbolizes gratitude, strength, direction, or prosperity.
