Pink and Green Croos Bookmark


This beautiful pink and green cross is hand crocheted and starched so that it's flat with some stiffness.  It is perfect to use as a bookmark, Bible marker, and is also suitable for framing.




The cross is 9" long and 5 1/4" wide (at widest and longest points)
The entire bookmark with tassel is just shy of 16" long.


This item will be available for sale for $25 at Made by Mightymom on etsy!!

A Cross Bookmark



I tried out a new pattern.  This was fun to make.  Reminded me of my Grandmother who used to sit and crochet lace items all the time.   This bookmark is a gift for the boys' Music Teacher at school, who is retiring (**insert sad faces here**).

I have some tweaking to do to make the pattern a little cleaner and lay flat better and then there will be some of these up at my etsy shop.  In a variety of colors!!

A Family of Rosaries

These rosaries were made for a family that we know. 

 Because they are 100% crocheted these rosaries weigh almost nothing and will fit easily in any size pocket.  Each large bead on the rosary is accented with a black seed bead.  There are also 3 black seed beads on the center piece of each rosary.  These were made in the recipient's favorite color. 


Rosaries such as these would make a useful and meaningful birthday, Mother's or Father's Day or Christmas gift!!

An Example

This is a rosary I made for a friend.

It has a 2" long silver crucifix and
there are black beads crocheted into each large bead and on the middle triangle.

A rosary like this will sell for $20




Tell me, do you like it?  Any ideas for improving the design?  There is a wide variety of colors and crucifixes available.  


Those of you who know me from my other blog My Wonderful Life know that I'm all about the ToDoLists!   I love to set goals.  So you won't be surprised that I have a
Made by Mightymom ToDoList!

At the top of that list is Figure out Paypal. 
I've never used it before, much less as a vendor.  So if any of my dear blog buddies could give some pointers I'd be grateful for your input.

Make today a Great Day!!
