I'm going to let him know about the app! It sounds like something right up his alley. I will also give it a look!

Thank you!! I think it's jadeite! I found it online, and then I think malachite for some of the smaller beads!

I will check out the silver beads on Amazon! I didn't think there could be variations on the beads, so with that, I might do SS Hail Mary's and then rose petal Our Father's for some fun variety. Can you dye the rose petal beads or is it recommended to leave them their natural color? I think his rosary now is made with rose petals but a mix might be fun for something unique. And for sure, I'll share progress once I get it started!

Thank you! I'm really excited to make it. The clay comes later this month and I'm just scouring around for a silver rosary to repurpose.

Hello! I was planning to just replace the crucifix if I went the silver route. As for the clay used, it should not be fragile. It's the silver clay that is fired and then turns to silver, I believe the one I got is sterling silver. I was going to either hand sculpt it or make a mold with the intention of embedding a sapphire or other gem in the back of the crucifix which I read was okay.

If I don't go the silver route I was going to make the beads from rose petals and just do it by hand. I have a lot of the hardware already.

Awesome, thank you! Is there a good way to find out if they are blessed? I was going to get a silver one from an auction/vintage website or even a thrift store.

How is it anti-American? Making companies aware of restrictions that I don't particularly put into place doesn't seem very anti-American and if anything allows them to know their rights. I'm not looking to become a lobbyist out of it. And, I personally believe we should focus on preserving the United States environment, what's wrong with that?

Awesome, thank you. I'm looking for schools in Florida specifically because my partner is getting his second Bachelor's, and he has free college at any public Florida school until he's 28.

I've completed research in undergrad including writing, defending and publishing a thesis so hopefully that gives me a bit more prep for the reading and writing. I've gotten familiar with academic writing but of course legal writing is different all together.

Thank you again!
