America 250 Rosary — In the Spring of 2026, a confluence of events occurred that resulted in me making this series of nine rosaries, my America 250 Novena of Rosaries.

I've got these red, white, and blue beads, all 8mm glass, which look great together. Similar to other rosaries, I used this metal centerpiece with the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The crucifix is recycled from an older broken rosary. And I hanged an American flag charm from the centerpiece. The chain, eye pins, and jump rings are all silver-plated steel.
