Question

I want to make rosary beads and can not find a site for information or suppies?

Answer 1

finding the supplies is the easy part....you can get beads from almost any craft supply store. The kind of beads that you use depend on who you are planning to give them to or sell them to.  If you are giving them to children and the children are going to use them then you can use finished wooden beads or the brightly colored beads.  For adults or teens you are going to want to use the more fancy beads. The beads can be held together with almost anything...that again goes back to who you are making them for. Children: use heavy string or even something that stretches because they tend to want to wear them. Also here are some sites that I found...you might try them:  www.rosaryparts.com ; www.rosaryshop.com ; & pmegio.com/projects/chain_rosary.html    I hope that these will help.  Good Luck
