Bit of Faith Christian Bookmark with Pewter Cross



My grandmother used to always loose her place in her bible, which she read ever day. She used to stick tons of different miscellaneous on-hand things in the pages to save her place from receipts to scraps of trash to pencils and more.

Until I made her a bookmark just for her bible.

From that day forward, she always had something special just for her bible and she loved it.

In the spirit of that memory, this beaded christian bookmark was designed from black and white beads for a minimalist look with a touch of elegance, a pretty pewter cross then set to dangle from either end. Perfect for not just bibles but books, datebooks, journals and more, this handmade 11.75-inch (30 cm) beaded book thong is sure to mark any reader's place with a touch of style and bit of faith.

Wooden Wafer Eyeglass Holder in Brown and Cream

Handmade Eyeglass Chain - The Host
When I started working with these bead wafers, they reminded me of church. At first, I wasn't sure why, but then it struck me that they're a very similar size and weight a the host that's given in church during Holy Communion. That is how this handmade eyeglass holder became titled "The Host" once it was finished!

Designed with wooden wafers combined with unusually shaped cream wafers and other dark wood and cream beads, this beaded eyeglass holder is perfect for holding on to reading glasses that usually like to try and make a run for it and get lost. The dark wood and cream colors are accented by touches of golden shimmer that adds a bit of warmth to the design.
