funeral flowers into rosary beads?
has anyone ever done this? I would love to get a few recommendations for places that offer this service.
we lost my FIL on 3/8 after a long battle with cancer and I took roses from the funeral with the hope of having them made into rosary beads for my MIL?

I actually want to do this with a flower from my wedding, but I'm not sure where to look to get it done.

Ive seen it done with little bud roses, fresh though. Family Florist in Deer Park does it.

I'll ask my cousin she is a florist. Are you looking for something that is useable?

Re: funeral flowers into rosary beads?
I had never heard of this until one of my moms friends ordered it for me and my sister after her funeral. She wanted to ask me first since she needed the roses. We love our bracelets and I am so grateful and appreciative she did this. I wear that bracelet on the anniversary of my moms passing and other occasions(her bday, my parents anniversary, etc.).
I just wanted to say what a nice thing this is and will mean so much.

Re: funeral flowers into rosary beads?
thank you all! I found a few places online that take the petals either fresh or dry. At this point, they are dry as the funeral was Friday!

yes! If your cousin can or knows of anyone who can make them from dried rose petals, that would be fantastic!
Their anniversary is 5/7 so I would love to have it before then to give to my MIL

Re: funeral flowers into rosary beads?
We had this done when my grandmother passed away. I wish I knew how to post a picture of my rosaries. They are beautiful. We got them done for 6 children, 19 grandchildren and I got small ones for 6 great grand kids! My sister in law used them as well when her grandmother passed. http://www.rosariesfromflowers.com.
