FAQs

We hope that your rosary will be a treasured tool of devotion for many years to come. Because of the materials used in the making of our rosaries, we do not recommend using jewelry cleaner or strong solvent cleaners, such as bleach, clorox, or other household cleaners.To clean your rosary, simply mix warm water with a little mild dishwashing liquid. Gently wash the beads with this mixture. Rinse with warm (not hot) water. Pat the rosary dry with a microfiber cloth. If you have a wood bead rosary, do not use soap and water. Wood beads should not be dipped in water.

While our items are made with love and care, none of them are blessed prior to being sent out. We recommend that you take your rosary to a local priest to have it blessed. 

Most of the stones and other materials we use are natural, so there is some variation in color, pattern, or shape. Because each item is handmade, two rosaries of the same design may not be identical. If you feel that you may have received the wrong rosary, please contact us at [email protected] and we’ll be happy to help make sure that you receive the correct item. 

While wearing the rosary, take the crucifix between your thumb and first finger of the opposite hand. First, make the sign of the Cross and then pray the Apostle’s Creed. Next, move your fingers to the large bead and pray the Our Father. If there are no other introductory beads keep your fingers on the large bead and pray three Hail Marys and a Glory Be. If you have three introductory beads, pray a Hail Mary on each of the three beads, followed by a Glory Be. Announce the mystery and use the next ten beads to pray the ten Hail Marys while meditating on the mystery. When you come back around to the Our Father bead you pray the Glory Be and the Fatima Prayer. You can decide to stop here, or announce the next mystery and keep going! At the end you conclude with the Hail Holy Queen prayer and another Sign of the Cross.
