Sometimes I just shop around with online vendors to see what they have and get ideas. I stumbled on these beads from a vendor on Etsy and they looked like they would make good Hail Mary beads. They remind me of spring and Easter. They are 8mm green splatter beads made of polymer clay. The Our Father beads are also 8mm, cream river stone which I just found last week. The crucifix is base metal while the centerpiece features a tender image of mother Mary cradling her baby Jesus. The chain, eye pins, and jump rings are silver-plated steel.
