Welcome to 12 Star Designs! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look at what is happening. I'm still in the process of registering all my business forms, so you can't purchase anything just yet. However, I wanted to share with you all the wonderful things I have been creating this past month.
First, I must say that I never thought I would be a person who made handmade rosaries. I just fell into this, and I love it! In fact, I feel compelled to create these prayer beads. I have always felt a sadness seeing old rosaries and chaplets at flea markets and antique malls...with their missing beads or worn, rusted chain. Who would pray them?
So I made the decision to save these broken, well loved and prayed blessed items by using pieces of them that were still viable in newly created rosaries and prayer beads.
Take a look, and let me know what you think!

About 12 Star Designs
12 Star Designs was created by Mary E. Krueger in the summer of 2009 by accident when she desired to create a special, handmade gift for her Aunt who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. After a brief introduction to crimping at a local bead store and some internet research, Mary created a heartfelt bracelet for her beloved Aunt.
Mary found beading a very rewarding experience and proceeded to repair a few of her rosaries and those of a friend. On a whim, she created a rosary of her own and she knew she had found a new calling - designing and creating prayer beads.
Mary converted to Catholicism in 2000 at the age of 21 and currently resides in St. Charles, Missouri.
