Hello-

I made this rosary a couple of years ago.  I would like to duplicate it.  I am having a hard time trying to find the identical "Bead Caps".  If anyone has any ideas where I can find them I would very much appreciate hearing from you.

Thank you

St Therese Relic Rosary Blue with Pink Roses by The Rosary Works




 The Hail Mary beads in this beautiful rosary are 8mm faceted Denim Lapis Lazuli. These multi-facted beads sparkle and dance in the light. The variegated blue beads range from very light blue to extremely dark blue. The Our Father beads are 12mm white porcelain with big, splashy pink roses on them. The roses are accented by a tiny blue flower which ties them in nicely with the blue Hail Mary beads.

The silver colored center honors St Therese, often called "The Little Flower".   Because of this, the center shows her surrounded by the petals of a rose which is the flower most commonly associated with her. The reverse side of the center has a relic from St Therese's coffin. Surrounding the relic are the words "Earth. St Therese's Coffin 1910". The crucifix is also made from silver colored metal. While I absolutely guarantee the construction of this rosary, I can not guarantee the beads because I didn't make them. Because of the size and weight of the beads, this is a nice substantial rosary with a good weight and length it. This rosary would make a wonderful gift or would be great to keep for yourself.  Please click here to learn more about this rosary  and please visit my shop: The Rosary Works to see more of my unbreakable rosaries and rosary bracelets.

***ROSARY SYMBOLISM***

HOPE: The bright silver plate finish on all of the parts is a symbol for hope! I can’t stress enough how important a hopeful and positive attitude is for someone who is sick. It can mean the difference between life and death.

PRAYER: The crucifix has the words Pray for a Cure on the back as a reminder pray, pray, pray. Pray for a cure. Pray for whatever is best for those involved. Pray for the researchers and drug companies so that they keep on track and disregard that nagging greed.

SUPPORT:The center features two roses which symbolize Our Lady. Mother Mary can be a HUGE member of our support team if we let Her!! She is a reminder of our compassionate and nurturing natures.

REMEMBRANCE:The word Remember is engraved on the back as a reminder: Don't EVER forget the sick or the souls of those who have passed. They still need our prayers!

SAINTS: The charm attached to the center is of St. Agatha who is the patron saint of Breast Cancer. The saints are an important resource for us, especially when times get rough. This is the only part with an oxidized finish on it (it was necessary to show the detail of the medal).

Thanks for looking! God Bless and have a great day! :)

Vintage Style Rosary Miraculous Medal Solid Bronze Autumn Colors by The Rosary Works



This isn't your grandmother's rosary, but it sure looks like it could be! This vintage style rosary was created with 20 gauge solid bronze wire that I antiqued. The floral center honors Our Lady of Grace and is solid bronze. The solid bronze crucifix has an intricate floral motif and is reminiscent of an icon. Both the center and the crucifix are exact replicas of vintage pieces from France. The Ave beads are 6mm autumn jasper also known as pink jasper. These beads have a "pink" color to them although the pink is closer to a salmon color. They also have a dark sage green color mixed in with the pink. The Pater beads are 14mm x 15mm puffy hearts beads that are antiqued gold. I've added 3mm pink crystal spacers to give the rosary a little sparkle. All of these components work together to give the feeling of a very old rosary.  Please click here to learn more about this rosary and please visit my shop, The Rosary Works, to see more of my wire wrapped, unbreakable rosaries.

Light Sapphire Blue Special Intention Rosary ~ Speziale Original

http://www.rosarystuff.com/product.asp?itemid=690
Over the last few years I've run into A LOT of people who are really struggling. Folks are feeling more and more worried, burdened, fearful and helpless. I can't even begin to tell you how much cancer I've seen in the last several years. It's been crazy! Add to that all of the scary things happening on the world stage, along with the moral decay spreading throughout our society, and it can all get to be a bit overwhelming at times. This is why I believe it's time to call in reinforcements. Someone to provide wisdom, guidance and intervention. In other words, it's time to call in the big guns by turning to God on a much larger scale.

With this idea in mind, I quickly found myself inspired (and strongly driven) to create a special rosary. I call it The Speziale Special Intention Rosary (SSIR for short). It is a new way of helping people organize their thoughts so they can ask God for help and intervention while still meditating on the Mysteries of the rosary. Kind of like a Trapper Keeper for prayer. My hope is that it will help people process through the emotional stress and trauma of their daily lives while also giving them the ability to focus on some good stuff too. We all know that constant focus on overwhelming negativity isn't healthy for anyone, but hopefully this rosary will give people an opportunity to voice their fears, ask for help, and then recognize, and be grateful for, all of the wonderful blessings in their lives (even those we sometimes take for granted).

This particular SSIR was made using beautiful light sapphire, ab clear and white pearl Czech glass beads.  The photo center features Our Lady, Undoer/Untier of Knots who has recently become a popular mainstream image thanks mainly to Pope Francis.  He considers it one of his favorite depictions of Mary.  The original painting was created by Johann Melchior Georg Schmittdner around 1700 and hangs in the Church of St. Peter am Perlach in Augsburg, Germany.  Mary is shown undoing or untying knots in a ribbon.  The knots can be representative of all kinds of things from sin, world and community instability, marriage, medical, or job problems, or any personal or societal issue that seems insurmountable and beyond our reach to resolve on our own.
