Vanity Need Instructions on How to make a Rosary

[Global2010]

Fellow Catholic Craft inclined freepers.

I am going to be on some vacation time day camping low budget ect.

I am Not crafty and do not have access to streaming video.

I would like to do a craft when on my spell of mini day trip vacations.

I would like to make wrist Rosaries. I found the beads (did not purchase of yet) from an ole retired worldy rock hound vender. (I see barter for price and he has implied so) I really need 4th grade level print out intructions diagram/how to / materials needed.

If you can help or have a favorite link on how to please respond.

I prefer using a string type material to bead with, so need to have knowledge on guage of beads and what type of string ect.

I do not think I have the patience being so uncrafty to work with wire.

Thanks Guys/Gals. Global2010

Here are some you tube videos for making a regular rosary, I couldn't find anything for a wrist rosary, there may be a video in the search results

Sacrifice beads can also be used to keep track of rosary and chaplet prayers. I found these excellent instructions at remarkable website called thelittleways.com

It is funny you should ask this question today. I was going through some things that I had saved over the years, and I came across a rosary that I made in 1962 when I was recovering from pneumonia at 14 years old. I found an ad in a magazine for rosary-making kits, so I ordered one, and I made this rosary out of white pearl beads, rhodium finished silver which doesn’t tarnish, and a mother-of-pearl crucifix with a small vial of Lourdes holy water in it. When I was finished, my grandfather, who was a jewelry engraver, engraved my name on the back of the crucifix. A priest friend of our family blessed it, and I’ve had it ever since.

I plan on passing it down to my daughter, because it is a feminine looking rosary, but I thoroughly enjoyed making that rosary. You can Google to find a rosary making parts store and you can get started that way. I wish you much success.
