Prayer Bracelets

These are a couple bracelets I made for my mom. Each coloured crystal is part of the prayer and hi-lited with Bali beads. Plain and Simple and just my version.

The Lord's Prayer Bracelet
Our Father (purple), who art in heaven (lavender),
hallowed(peach) be thy name. Thy kingdom (green) come,
thy will (rose) be done, on earth (teal) as it is in heaven (lavender).
Give us this day (yellow) our daily bread (light brown)
and forgive us (clear) our trespasses, as we forgive those
who trespass (grey) against us. And lead us not into
temptation(red), but deliver us from evil (black). Amen.





The Psalm 23 Bracelet

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures (green);
He leads me beside quiet waters (blue). He restores my soul;
He guides me in paths of righteousness (white) for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil (black), for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff (brown), they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil (yellow); my cup (purple) overflows.
Surely goodness and lovingkindness (red) will follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

Thank you for the explanation of the lines and colors. I kept meaning to ask you on Beading Daily, but kept forgetting. I'm glad I found your blog, so I could find out!

I love these bracelets.:) Some of the first few bracelets I made for MIL are "Mother's Bracelet" which kinda have the same feel...

I would love to make these in the future.

Oh and I love the new look of your blog.:)

I wasn't sure I'd be making more right away, so I clearance priced 2 'Salvation bracelets' at a recent home party and they both sold. Now I do have to really consider making more. Just need more time for all the wonderful projects on the list!
Nice work!
