Pool Noodle Rosary


Our latest project was to make a rosary out of pool noodles!  I discovered this idea from a blog that I just love.  It is called Catholic Icing and she has wonderful ideas: http://catholicicing.blogspot.com/.  So here is some pictures of the kids making their own version of a rosary out of pool noodles.

First we cut up a green flower shaped pool noodle into 53 pieces using a bread knife for the Hail Mary beads.  Than we cut up a red round shaped pool noodler into 6 thicker pieces for the Our Father beads.
Next, we strung the Hail Mary beads and the Our Father beads on a thick rope.


Once we strung the 50 Hail Mary's and 4 Our Father's we took a different color flower shaped noodle for the center piece and continued with one more Our Father, 3 Hail Mary's and one more Our Father.  Next was the cross which we used a blue pool noodle for.
