Like a Prayer


Prayer cards and their imagery are as popular as ever! Perhaps it's their detailed black and white graphics, or sometimes soft pastel colours that draw us in with timeless appeal. Or maybe it's the tranquil expressions on the faces of the saints that remind people of their faith.


I wanted to incorporate these prayer card motifs into my jewelry designs, and with the help of my good friend Danette, I have begun a Prayer Card collection, the first four pieces of which have been released in my Etsy shoppe tonight. Danette created several resin pendants for me, and I have gathered some other antique examples from dealers as far reaching as Australia.



If you see anything you like, please let me know and I'd be happy to design a custom necklace for you! ;)












Soon I will be announcing some other exciting plans for my jewelry endeavors. Thank you for stopping by! Have a beautiful week! :)
