Incense bowl/white sage

Add white sage as a rare plant in hot dry biomes and have the option to craft it into a placeable incense bowl using the white sage plant drop, coal/charcoal and a bowl. The sage plant on its own should have no effect, but crafted into an incense bowl should prevent mob spawning within 3 blocks, and/or stop creepers exploding in a 5 block radius. Even if this effect did not exist, it would be a nice decor option for builds if made placeable in the same manner as pots/potted plants. There is room to expand this idea having different options for crafting that would have different effects, but all effects should be kept within a short radius so that it cannot be overpowered. I’m suggesting white sage as it is currently nearing endangered status in the wild and is being over cultivated for the use as smudge sticks and incense. Thanks for your consideration of this suggestion
