2. Sure are. A local bead shop had a whole bunch of purple ones. The
centerpiece is a locked in which I put a picture of the crucifixion. It has a medal of Our Lady of Guadalupe, on of Our Lady of Mt Carmel and one of the Miraculous Medal

4. That is beautiful!!!
And what a personally inspiring thing to do. You are truly lucky to have that talent.

Uhm, I have a question for you. I have an old 1940's crucifix and the little "nails" fell out. Do you have any idea where I could get replacements?

8. They're different
They're not really nails, they're brass and they have these little round heads. I don't know. It's very frustrating. The original was a wedding gift to my parents, it burned up in a housefire we had several years ago. So I finally found another one on Ebay. It fell off the wall and the little nail things got lost. So now it's sitting in my closet. Grrrr. Some day I'll figure it out. Thanks for trying!

9. Those are beautiful Chavez
I haven't prayed the rosary in a long time but I still have my grandmother's that she gave me before she died. They look alot like this
In honor of St. Patrick. They weren't fancy or anything but they have a lot sentimental value to me. It's one of the few things I have to remember her by

You are so talented!! Do you sell them or give them away I'd be very intested in them if you sell them reasonably.
