"I just wanted to let you know . . . I purchased beads there a couple of weeks ago to make my son his First Communion rosary through our church. We made our rosaries this week and I was stunned at not only my accomplishment, but how truly beautiful it turned out! Thank you so much for your help in picking out the right parts . . . . My son probably won't realize how unique and special this is until later in life, but I do. And it was a WONDERFUL experience! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" A.B.
