Author Topic: Cheap Rosaries? (Read 908 times)

I teach Sunday school Catholic children at a trad chapel. For Christmas, I would like to give them each a Rosary. Does anyone know a budget source?

You can purchase your choice of non plastic beads, twine, and make them yourself. You can leave out the rosary center which some do to cut costs. The smaller the beads and crucifix, the less expensive they usually are. If making them, using simple knots to tie and hold together will speed up the making process rather than the fancy knots found on the more expensive twine rosaries.

I use Our Lady's Rosary Makers to buy materials. They have some cheap beginner kits too.

http://autom.com/devotional-items/rosaries. $11.88 per dozen wooden rosary beads.

N.B. Please check out the overall length of the Rosary - anything smaller than 17" is tight unless meant for very small hands.

These are extremely well made - I have this set and can attest to its durability.

In Jesus and Mary,

I have these also, and I really like them. Extremely durable, much more so than the metal chain ones which always seem to come apart over time. I do feel like the twine on mine is getting thin in some spots, but I've been using it regularly for years.

Both of these links come up as "Page Not Found", for me. Anyone else having trouble with them?

That's why I fixed the link in my post. Get rid of the "." at the end of "html." above.
