    I love this! I think I’ll try and make an offering every day– it will spur my creativity and remind me to be thankful for the beauty that surrounds me. Thanks for the fabulous instruction and inspiration, Tuck! I can’t wait to get started.

    Dear Tuck,
    I went to Bali for my honeymoon twenty years ago and was fascinated with all the beautifull offerings. I had no idea how they were made until now and think I might try making them for Raymond and our anniversary. Thank you. You are very talented and your instructions were easy to understand.
