Description:

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. I will block anyone with a low rating, recent no-sends. If you are not Catholic, you are still welcome to join, but I will also block those interested in the occult. International swappers and newbies are most welcome. Please be sure to have a well filled-in profile.

I just wanted to mention that vintage rosaries are perfectly acceptable. I'm not sure if that came through clearly in the original posts.

If you would like to participate, but are a little unsure about making a rosary, this might be a better option for you. You can sometimes find absolutely gorgeous old ones at the flea market or antique shop - and they're often much less expensive than you'd expect. In the case of a vintage one, maybe you would enjoy giving it a good polish, and making a pretty soft bag or envelope pouch for it.

This is such a great idea! I hope I will be able to do this one.

I was just wondering when our partners will be assigned. Sign up closed last week.

I was waiting for one other person to get her profile filled. I have just assigned partners, and you should have an email in your box shortly!

Hooray!
