I was inspired to create this swap by the many, many talented women I know who make rosary beads. I thought that this would be a wonderful way to share our faith and talent with each other, and how sweet it would be to feel that we were praying with the friend who made the beads every time we “called home to Mother”.

Here are the specifics:

Make a string of rosary beads especially for your partner, using her profile to choose your materials and method. Beads may be strung, wire-wrapped, linked, or knotted. Please use quality materials (no plastic, please), and great care in creating your rosary beads.

Rosary beads must be handmade or vintage.

If you are not familiar with how to make rosary beads, please check out this link.

Please visit this link to sign up by 26 September. Your rosary must be put into the mail by 26 October. International swappers and newbies are most welcome!
