Prayer to Saint Anthony the Wonder-Worker

Saint Anthony, perfect imitator of Jesus, who received from God the special power of restoring lost things, grant that I may find {mention your petition} which has been lost. As least restore to me peace and tranquility of mind, the loss of which has afflicted me even more than my material loss. To this favor I ask another of you: that I may always remain in possession of the true good that is God.Let me rather lose all things than lose God, my supreme good. Let me never suffer the loss of my greatest treasure, eternal life with God. Amen.

St. Anthony is one of my favorite Saints, I can't count the times He has interceded for me or my family to help find anything lost.

Just today my son had lost his wallet, he had just come from the store and he was afraid someone had taken it because we looked in the car twice, even on the side panels of the car and nothing. I prayed to St. Anthony to please help my son find his wallet and shortly after that my son decided to go check again the car and there was the wallet on the side of the car, which three of us had gone to the car before and it wasn't there.

I can't thank him enough for all the favours he has given us.
Thank you St. Anthony

I created this bracelet in a very unique color combination, for some reason these colors are the ones that came together for this bracelet.




I also used a very unique pewter medal depicting St. Anthony with Baby Jesus which I attached to a natural Jasper bead and adorned with pink rhinestones.

St. Therese Catholic Bracelet

PRAYER TO ST. THERESA

O Lord, who hast said; "unless you become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven"; grant us, we beseech Thee, so to walk in the footsteps of thy blessed Virgin Theresa with a humble and single heart, that we may attain to everlasting rewards: who livest and reignest world without end. Amen

I have created another bracelet honoring St. Therese and love the combination of the greens with pinks and, of course, I must add a rose as a symbol of St. Therese.

On this bracelet besides her color medals and relic medal I added other Catholic medals including, Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalen, St. Kateri, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel and Our Lady of Czestochowa.

I added natural rose quartz and pink agate besides glass pearls.

I love the end result of this necklace. I actually started with the cameo that I was originally was going to use it in a bracelet then I began to add more rhinestones and another setting and that is when the inspiration for a rosary necklace came to me, after finishing the cameo.
To Center cameo, I added two beautiful goldtone medals of Virgin Mary, one being Our LAdy of Miraculous Medal
Since it was going to be too long, I added piece of Rosary on the side and to make it more unique I added a beautiful smaller cameo of Our Lady of Fatima and a stunning ornate crucifix made in Italy.
Materials I used are glass pearls, rhinestones and Czech. Aurora Borealis clear crystals.

Our Lady of Fatima Charm Bracelet

O Most Holy Virgin Mary,
Queen of the most Holy Rosary,
you were pleased to appear to the children of Fatima
and reveal a glorious message.
We implore you,
inspire in our hearts a fervent love
for the recitation of the Rosary.

On this bracelet the detail does not show too well. My old camera broke and since I got a new one, I cannot figure out the settings yet, I'm still working on it, hoping to get better.

I added a beautiful Rose quartz heart holding relic medal and many Catholic medals, including Our Lady of Medjugorje, Our Lady of Lourdes with St. Bernadette, St. Catherine, St. Padre Pio and others.

I added beautiful Czech. glass flowers and created a very unique combination.

Say 3 Our Fathers, 3 Hail Marys and 3 Glory be to God.

Heavenly Father, You have sent angels to relay Your messages to us, to protect us from danger, and to rescue us from the Evil One. I thank You for the precious gift of these holy guardians that You assigned to me and my loved ones. O Lord, give us Your help through our angels to fend off the evil spirits that tempt us, that send us deceptive messages, that try to cause divisions, and all others who seek the ruin of our souls. I also pray that the guardian angels of my church, my town and my nation will have all the strength and power they need to protect us from the snares and attacks of wickedness. Guardian angels, pray for us. Amen.
If you love angels and believe in angels as much as I do, this is a perfect necklace I created in their honor. They are such faithful and loving companions that is not a day I thank them and ask for their intervention.
They are so wonderful that most of the time, when you have already built a report with them, they will work with you for the honor and Glory of Our Lord and Blessed Mother with us.
I have had so many beautiful and extraordinary experiences with angels and my most recent one was when I was going to create this necklace.
I had the inspiration to create one and I started with the dichroic glass pendant, I added a beautiful medal of an angel and adorned it with rhinestones and that is all I had of angels or an angel and I was going to put it away until I collected more angels. I wasn't even planning to go looking for them, maybe on the following weeks I would do it, but I guess they had another plan for me.
As I was going to place the glass away, I heard in my head the name of St. Vincent de Paul and had the urge to go and I just remembered that here in Tucson there is a St. Vincent de Paul thrift store and I just had the impulse to go, I didn't know what I would go look for or what I would find and left.
To my surprise, I found the rest of the angels in my necklace, all the broaches, including the angel on front of cameo, which I tought it was so wonderful to be able to find them all in one place, even the cashier mention that was strange they had so many angels.
I guess it was meant for me to finish this necklace in their honor as well in the honor of St. Jude and Infant of Prague, everything just came together the same day and I'm so pleased with the result and my beautiful experience.

I just love this little angel, so whimsical, but yet so peaceful

St. Michael Catholic Charm Bracelet

PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.

I created another bracelet in honor of the most powerful and loyal Archangel St. Michael. I just love creating one in his honor.

I've had so many experiences regarding St. Michael that is my inspiration to create one that I can convey my love to his protection and always be ready to fight any battle.

I truly wish I can really show His might and power and beauty in my bracelets.

This bracelet I wanted to make it bold to represent His power and boldness and silver to represent part of his armour.

I added beautiful wings and a sword to represent St. Michael's sword.

I also included Archangel's charms and a vintage medal.


This is a vintage medal depicting St. Michael and on reverse side a Guardian Angel.

This sword charm represent St. Michael's sword.
