The whole bracelet has been created with vintage and new beads, pearls and chain.

I added several oxidized Italian medals of Our Lady of Loretto, St. Padre Pio, Divine Mercy, St. Barbara, Sacred Heart of Jesus and St. Dymphna.  I also added four Olive Wood from Israel beads.

Catholic Virgin Mary OL Mr Carmel Catholic Locket Shrine Religious Pendant



I created another one of a kind embellished locket shrine honoring Our Lady of Mt. Carmel.  I truly love creating these embellished altered art lockets.  It takes a lot of time to gather the special pieces that will create each piece and more time to make sure every piece falls into place in harmony to finish one piece and all pieces coincide and appear so beautiful and it's worth the time and the effort for each one being so unique and special.  

I have always been inspired how in Latin American Our Blessed Mother has been adorned with so many beautiful embellishments including lace, crystals and pearls and that was my inspiration for this piece.

I collected several pieces which are vintage including rhinestones and roses and I also added on the back a beautiful vintage sequin lace.

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Bracelet

Thou who, with special mercy, 
 look upon those clothed 
in Thy beloved Habit,  
cast a glance of pity upon me.
  Fortify my weakness with Thy strength;  
enlighten the darkness 
of my mind with Thy wisdom;  
increase my faith, 
 hope and charity.  
Assist me during life,  
console me by Thy presence at my death,  
and present me
 to the August trinity
 as Thy devoted child, 
 that I may bless thee 
for all eternity in Paradise. 
 Amen. 




I truly enjoyed creating this special bracelet honoring Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. Loved the black lace and I combined it with a cream color ribbon and the combination just appeals like an older bracelet. I love how it gives it an appearance of a bracelet that might of been worn many years ago.

Virgin Mary Mt. Carmel, Saint Religious Medals Bracelet

Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, or of the Scapular

July 16

The Church celebrates on this day the feast of the Scapular of Mount Carmel. The scapular, which derives its name from the Latin wordscapulæ, meaning shoulders, is a dress which covers the shoulders. It is mentioned in the rule of Saint Benedict as worn by monks over their other dress when they were at work, and it now forms a regular part of the religious dress in the old Orders. But it is best known among Catholics as the name of two little pieces of cloth worn out of devotion to the Blessed Virgin over the shoulders, under the ordinary garb, and connected by strings. The devotion of the scapular, now almost universal in the Catholic Church, began with the Carmelites. The history of its origin is as follows: During the thirteenth century the Carmelite Order suffered great persecution, and July 16, 1251, w
hile Saint Simon Stock, then general of the Order, was at prayer, the Blessed Virgin appeared to him, holding in her hand a scapular. Giving it to the saint, she said,

"Receive, my dear son, this scapular of thy Order, as the distinctive sign of my confraternity, and the mark of the privilege which I have obtained for thee and the children of Carmel. It is a sign of salvation, a safeguard in danger, and a special pledge of peace and protection till the end of time. Whosoever dies wearing this shall be preserved from eternal flames."


I just loved creating this beautiful bracelet honoring Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. I used a color medal and set in on a gorgeous setting and adorned with vintage and new rhinestones.

I used multi colored glass beads and pearls

Sweet Mother, I place this cause in Your hands.


I created this bracelet in honor to Our Lady of Mt. Carmel using this beautiful picture with Baby Jesus. I usually take several pictures of the same bracelet to choose the best ones to place in my listings. When I arranged the bracelet on an amethyst stone and began taking pictures and when I uploaded the pictures I noticed something in the medal, like a white glowing in it then on the second picture it shows a different image, like the image already formed.


These are the enlarged pictures. What I was amazed to see, on the last enlarged picture is of what appeared to be a man, but I realized that resembles an icon of St. Michael that I have with Him holding a round shield and raising his hand with a sword. I can't really say it is, but it does resembles him a lot.
I use it as a reminder that they are so close to us that we must pay more attention to their appearances and only a prayer away.
