8mm Blue Sodalite Rosary with Bronze

I absolutely love the color blue for a rosary, after all blue is Our Ladie's color. Blue Sodalite is one of my favorites because it is so classic a blue.

This rosary has a nice large bead and is great for a woman or a man!  It is made with 8mm Blue Sodalite for the Hail Mary beads, and 10mm faceted Blue Sodalite for the Our Father beads.  The Crucifix and Center are the gorgeous antique reproduction pieces that I use on so many of my rosaries.  They are solid bronze.





8mm Autumn Jasper Gemstone Rosary with Bronze

My sister-inlaw Suzie chose this stone for her rosary.  She loves the ovals because they feel so smooth and are so distinctive from the Hail Mary beads. 

This rosary is made with 8mm Autumn Jasper Gemstones for the Hail Mary beads and Czech pressed glass beads for the Our Father beads.  The Crucifix and center our hand cast in the USA from Solid bronze

Lots of Rosary Bracelets

I have been busy making rosary bracelets, but the bronze ones are selling about as fast as I can make them.  I love the detail in the crucifix and centers of these bracelets.  I throw my bracelet on before I go out the door, since it is so convenient to say a rosary while waiting at a traffic light or in a doctors office.

6mm Chinese Turquoise Rosary



This is my newest rosary.  I found these gorgeous faceted Czech glass beads in a little bead shop and was so excited to pair them up with the Chinese Turquoise gemstones.  I think they have such a beautiful antique look.  I hope you like the combination as much as I do!  \

Now available in my Etsy shop!

Grand Opening of Etsy Shop

Hello friends!  Well I just opened a shop at www.GracefulRosaries.etsy.com.  This is exciting for me to be making my rosaries available outside my circle of friends and family.  My blog format will change somewhat.  But I will still list all the rosaries I make on this site, for the purpose of custom orders.  If you wish to purchase a rosary that is still easily done through my Etsy shop.  Thanks for looking!
