Make Rosary Beads From Rose Petals
You can turn the rose petals from your garden (or from your wedding bouquet or other memorial occasion) into beautiful beads.
My Rose Petal Rosary Beads
I chose to make mine into rosary beads, but you can make necklaces, bracelets, or any other type of jewelry with them.
You can Use Dried Roses
I started with dried rose petals, and crushed them up as much as possible. You can use fresh petals if you want, either will work.
Cooking Petals
You have to cook them into a paste, carefully stirring them until you get the right consistency.
Drying
Drying them is the tricky part. This is the most important step to making my rose petal beads. Be sure to use the link at the bottom to see the whole process!
