This Rosary was made for a 50 Year Wedding Anniversary gift for a Mom. Her birthstone is March.
Traditionally black beads are use for religious rosaries. I have chosen in this design of multicolor to use the black beads to show where the fourteen children's birthstones leave off and the twenty-nine grandchildren's birthstones begin. Unless otherwise stated the Mom's birthstone, which is Aquamarine, will be used for the Our Father Beads.
Birthstone colors are for the family members:
1st Our Father bead - March for her Father's birthday
The set of 3 Hail Mary beads are:
March for Mom's birthday
June for Marriage
January for Dad's birthday
2nd Our Father bead - August for her Mother's birthday
