Virgencita - In the Hearts of All Children

Sometime ago I came across Our Lady of Guadalupe in a child form, which I loved and I even bought some charms to make my granddaughter a necklace but they were made of brass and very small, she didn't think anything of it.

Several weeks ago my daughter-in-law was sharing her idea of creating whimsical Kawaii style jewelry for kids and adults and I have always been supportive of all she does because she is very talented and her inspiration are her girls, my granddaughters, so I knew they will be beautiful and one day we came across an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe "Virgencita" and she just fell in love with her and she is very devoted to Our Blessed Mother and she was inspired to create jewelry honoring Our Lady of Guadalupe as "Virgencita".

Incredible enough we came across several Virgencitas for her to start creating her pieces and one day, we decided to make our own flowers to add to them when the inspiration came to create Our own "Virgencita" including the flowers and as we were creating them, I received a message that "She, Our Lady of Guadalupe, wants to be in all children's hearts" and we were more joyous on creating Her as a child like.

As we finished a couple of them, my 3 yr. old granddaughter, which had not known about Our Lady of Guadalupe, she gasped when she saw one and held her and she told my daughter-in-law "MOM THATS THE LADY OF GUA-DA-LUUUUPE!" and immediately wanted a necklace with one and that made us rejoice more that how a child that young could feel the joy of holding Our Lady of Guadalupe in a child like manner and identify with her, it was amazing and beautiful experience.

My daughter-in-law has launched her own designs with Our Virgencita in her Etsy shop

INGENIOUS YA-YA DESIGNS

These are some of her designs

   

These top three are necklaces of Our Lady "Virgencita"

This design is a cuff bracelet 

This is a necklace of Padre (Father) Eusebio Francisco Kino, Tucson's First European Explorer

Since she being from San Xavier and have lived there all her life.

Being part of this community is amazing and focuses a lot on the foundation of our most visited Church, Mission San Xavier del Bac, which was founded in 1692 by Father Kino.

You can read more on Father Kino here on this link, http://tucson-infonet.com/kino.html

She did a remarkable job creating Padre Kino herself with all the details.

She has been inspired to create Saints as well and Mother Theresa.

I was so inspired by her creations I wanted to create a bracelet myself and I listed it in my Etsy Shop

 Angelo's Treasures.  

Catholic Our Lady of Guadalupe, Saints, Religious Medals Charm Bracelet

Today I created another bracelet honoring our beautiful and humble Lady of Guadalupe using a stunning cross featuring Artwork from Cromo NB Studios in Milan, Italy.  I love the details on this cross and I love the Gold gilding on the cross as well.

I used other Catholic medals as St. Michael, Our Lady of Miraculous Medal, St. Jude, Our Lady of Medjugorje, Divine Mercy, Archangel St. Gabriel and St. Damien of Molokai.

To enhance the beauty of the cross I added stunning heart lampwork beads, very unique in design and colors, pearls and glass beads as well as a beautiful lucite flower on center of bracelet.

Catholic Virgin Mary "The Divine Shepherdess", Saints Religious Medals Bracelet

I have always loved how Our Blessed Mother is dressed and adorned in all Latin America including lace and I was so happy to be able to receive this stunning medal of Our Blessed Mother as "The Divine Shepherdess".

I received this stunning medal from Lydia a special lady from Mexico that was kind enough to send me several medals and a piece of cloth touched to St. Philomena's First Class Relic and the medals for use in my creations.

I just love the image, I still find myself finding comfort just looking at the medal.

Catholic St. Dymphna Relic Saints Medals Religious Charm Lampwork Bracelet

Patronage for Nervous and Mental Afflictions

Dymphna was fourteen when her mother died. Damon is said to have been afflicted with a mental illness, brought on by his grief. He sent messengers throughout his town and other lands to find some woman of noble birth, resembling his wife, who would be willing to marry him. When none could be found, his evil advisers told him to marry his own daughter. Dymphna fled from her castle together with St. Gerebran, her confessor and two other friends. Damon found them in Belgium. He gave orders that the priest's head be cut off. Then Damon tried to persuade his daughter to return to Ireland with him. When she refused, he drew his sword and struck off her head. She was then only fifteen years of age. Dymphna received the crown of martyrdom in defense of her purity about the year 620. She is the patron of those suffering from nervous and mental afflictions. Many miracles have taken place at her shrine, built on the spot where she was buried in Gheel, Belgium.

I created this unique bracelet honoring a great Saint, St. Dymphna using a 3rd class relic medal of the Saint.  Using as well other Catholic medals including St. Benedict, St. Anthony, Our Lady of Victory with Don Bosco, Archangel St. Raphael, Our Lady of Fatima, Sacred Heart of Jesus, St. Lazarus and St. George.

Adding to this bracelet very unique angel charms and a stunning large Bali-style flower to make the gorgeous wedding cake lampwork beads stand out.  The combination of beads and colors are very unique as well, yellow with purple one of my favorite combinations.

"Queen of Heaven" Catholic Virgin Mary Cameo, Saints Catholic Medals Bracelet

The picture on this cameo of Our Blessed Mother "Queen of Heaven" is one of my favorites.  Depicts so much love, compassion and love and with Her hand Blessing all.

I adorned this cameo with Czech. Rhinestones to enhance the beauty of the cameo.

Catholic medals I used to create this bracelet are Immaculate Heart of Mary, Sacred Heart of Jesus, St. Philomena, St. Michael, Our Lady of Czestochowa, St. Rita and  Mother Theresa.

Used a combination of beautiful glass lampwork beads and glass pearls making perfect combination with cameo.

"Golden Radiance" Our Lady of Guadalupe Charm Bracelet

This bracelet was inspired by Our Lady of Guadalupe's Golden Radiance I experienced recently.

My youngest granddaughter, whom is only 7 months old, fell ill with Bronchiolitis  and had to be hospitalized due to having bad reaction to medications.

I had been praying for her well being and prayed to Our Lady of Guadalupe to protect her from any illness and bring her the healing that she needs and as I was praying I had a vision of Our Lady of Guadalupe picking up the baby and also holding my oldest granddaughter, which is 3 yrs old and holding both in Her arms and as she picked up the baby, She emanated a beautiful golden radiance that surrounded Her and the girls and was so beautiful that the radiance is indescribable and at that moment I knew She was healing my granddaughter.

My granddaughter is now out of the hospital and back to self, the happy baby that she was, like she was never sick.

Thank you Blessed Mother, will always Love You

PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE

O Virgin of Guadalupe,

Mother of the Americas,

grant to our homes the grace of loving

and respecting life in its beginnings,

with the same love with which

you conceived in your womb

the life of the Son of God.

Blessed Virgin Mary,

Mother of Fair Love,

protect our families so that

they may always be united

and bless the upbringing of our children.

Our hope, look upon us with pity,

teach is to go continually to Jesus,

and if we fall

help us to rise again and return to Him

through the confession of our faults

and our sins in the Sacrament of penance,

which gives peace to the soul.

We beg you to grant us a great love

of all the holy Sacraments,

which are, as it were,

the signs that your Son left us on earth.

Thus, Most Holy Mother,

with the peace of God in our consciences,

with our hearts free from evil and hatred,

we will be able to bring to all others

true joy and peace,

which come to us from your Son,

our Lord Jesus Christ,

who with the Father and the Holy Spirit,

lives and reigns for ever and ever.

Amen.

(Pope John Paul II.)

Catholic Virgin Mary Cameo, Saints Religious Medals Handcrafted Charm Bracelet

For a very long time I wanted to add a rhinestone or jewel crown to Our Blessed Mother in my cameos but could hardly find small enough to fit on the cameo until I found a stunning brooch that had small enough pieces to convert into crowns and I was so excited to be able to incorporate the crown to the image of Our Lady.

This bracelet turned out so unique with the color combinations.  I also found some stunning lampwork hearts with gold foil that were meant for this bracelet.

Catholic medals I used are Immaculate Heart of Mary, Christ, St. Juan Diego with Our Lady of Guadalupe, Blessed Sacrament, St. Benedict, Mother Theresa and Sacred Heart of Jesus.

In addition to the stunning hearts, I added beautiful cream color with black lampwork beads making this bracelet unique.

St Benedict, Saints Religious Medals Charm Bracelet

PATRONAGE: Against evil, witchcraft; against poison; agricultural workers; carvers; civil engineers; copper smiths; dying people

THE JUBILEE MEDAL OF ST. BENEDICT

The power of St. Benedict is revealed in this small object that has been fostered by his spiritual sons many years. Marvelous is the aid which the St. Benedict Medal affords to its devout wearers in the manifold necessities of soul and body. On this account the Medal is well known and widely used throughout the Christian world; everywhere it is regarded as a highly favored object of devotion.

St. Benedict (born at Nursia, Italy, in 480) had a profound veneration for the holy Cross and for our Saviour Crucified. In virtue of the Sign of the Cross, he wrought many miracles and exercised great power over the spirits of darkness. In consequence of the great veneration in which St. Benedict was held from the early Middle Ages, it followed that a Medal was struck, one side of which represents St. Benedict holding the Cross in one hand and the Holy Rule in the other. Around the image of St. Benedict are these words in Latin "May his presence protect us in the hour of death." St. Benedict has ever been the patron of the dying, because of the circumstances attending his own most glorious death, for he breathed forth his soul while standing in prayer before the Most Blessed Sacrament.

The reverse of the Medal shows the image of the Cross. Around the margin are the initials of Latin words which form verses supposed to have originated with the holy Father Benedict himself. The English translation is: "Be gone Satan! Suggest not to me thy vain things. The cup thou profferest me is evil; drink thou thy poison." In the angles formed by the arms of the Cross are the letters C.S.P.B., signifying "Cross of the holy Father Benedict." The letters on the Cross itself have this meaning: "May the holy Cross be my light; let not the dragon be my guide."

Medals of Saint Benedict are sacramentals that may be blessed legitimately by any priest or deacon

I created this unique bracelet honoring St. Benedict using a St. Benedict large medal and also using several Italian Catholic medals which include Our Lady of Sorrows with St. Peregrine, Sacred Heart of Child Jesus,  Holy Child of Atocha, Archangel St. Gabriel, Our Lady of Victory with Don Bosco and others.

Beads I used are a very unique bumpy beads that I was taken away with it's uniqueness with green and blue over black.  I also used beautiful Jasper Gemstone beads and glass blue beads.

"Divine Love" Valentine's Day Sacred Heart Catholic Medals Religious Bracelet

Prayer to the Sacred Heart by Saint Francis De Sales

May Thy Heart dwell always in our hearts!

O sun of our hearts, Thou givest life to all things by the rays of Thy goodness!

I will not go until Thy Heart has strengthened me, O Lord Jesus!

May the Heart of Jesus be the King of my heart!

Blessed be God. Amen.

I wanted to create a bracelet that expresses the Divine Love Our Lord has for us.  We normally celebrate Valentine's Day giving to love ones or people we love but sometimes we don't realize His Divine Love that should also be celebrated and with this bracelet I wanted to convey that Love.

I used a beautiful vintage cameo.  I used lampwork heart beads and teardrop shape beads representing His bleeding heart.  Other Catholic medals I used are St. Therese, Padre Pio, Blessed Sacrament, Our Lady of the Well and others., a one decade rosary using Olive Wood beads from Israel, very special beads.

May His Divine Love always well in your heart.

St. Padre Pio Relic Religious Medals Handcrafted Bracelet

  

Prayer to Saint Padre Pio

Beloved Padre Pio, today I add my prayer to the

thousands of prayers offered to you every day by

those who love and venerate you.  They ask for

cures and healings, earthly and spiritual blessings,

and peace for body and mind.   And because of

your friendship with the Lord, He heals those you 

ask to be healed and He forgives those you ask to

be forgiven. 

Through your visible wounds of the Cross, which

you bore for 50 years, you were chosen in our

time to glorify the crucified Jesus.  As we

lovingly recall the wounds that pierced your 

hands, feen and side, we not only remember the

blood you shed in pain, but your smile, and the

invisible halo of sweet-smelling flowers that

surrounded your presence, the perfume of sanctity.

Saint Pio, may the healings of the sick, the

serenity of the troubled, and the loving comfort

received by those in pain and despair be a sure

sign that you continue to intercede for us and our

loved ones before the Lord.

In your kindness, please help me with my own 

special request.  (Here state your petition).  Each

and every day, bless me and my loved ones.

Amen 

I love the new style of the Third Class Relic medals of St. Padre Pio, that is now encased inside a dome.

Other Catholic medals I used are Our Lady of Guadalupe with St. Charbel, Our Lady of Miraculous Medal, Divine Mercy, Our Lady of Medjugorje, Our Lady of Fatima and others.

St. Michael and Archangels Charm Bracelet

I was inspired today to create a statement bracelet making it unique and bold and I had saved that gorgeous sword for a long time until I would find the right time or piece that I needed to add it to and today, out of the blue, I was so inspired to take it and use it with this stunning as well cross depicting St. Michael and angels.

It gave me a bit of difficulty adding it to the bracelet to make it safe, even though, is not sharp, but wanted to be cautious with it and I just love the end result.

Bold and powerful like St. Michael and that sword truly makes a statement. 

Blessings St. Michael
