Making a Wish Jar

In the past few weeks I’ve had several requests for more info on Wish Jars. Stupidly enough I’d posted about Wish Jars before, but I never explained what they are or why you’d have one or how to make them. I apologize and have fixed this: the what’s, how’s and why’s of Wish Jars, very easy to find at the top of the page.

Writing about Wish Jars and finally making my own Wish Jar (no, not finished yet) made me think. In a society where dreams are destroyed so easily, by careless remarks, by jealousy and by ‘jokes’ from people who forgot about their own dreams, it can be quite hard to hang on to them. It’s more important than ever to honour our dreams and wishes, to cherish and nurture them and to honour people who do the same. The Wish Jar Gallery is a tribute to all the people who believe in their dreams, who hold on to them and who try to make them come true, no matter what the odds. You are invited to take part in the Gallery simply by  leaving a comment with a link to your Wish Jar or Dream Box or by sending pictures to gallery [at] secretwishjar [dot] com.
