Smell the Roses without Stopping - Take the roses with you
Rose Petal Beads - Are made from rose petals by simmering them in water over a long period of time.
I started making rose petal beads, because my step- daughter likes to eat rose petals. We were looking for recipes to make with rose petals and stumbled across the bead information. We also found a recipe for rose petal ice cream.
So we ate the ice cream and made a rose petal bead necklace for her mom to wear.
Below is some information on the beads and links to all the info i could find. What a wonder of nature to be able to take the roses with you

| It is a very old technique, older than the written records... One of the recent historical uses of rose petal beads was to make Rosaries. The petals were cooked slowly with water (about 3 weeks) in a cast iron pot on a fire. Then they were rolled into beads and dried. They shrink about 3 to 4 times as they dry. Once dry they are very light and durable. They still smell like roses for many many years. They will also pick up smells from other things so don't store them with the garlic or onions. If the get damp accidentally, hang them in a warm dry place. They do not fall apart with a few drops of rain, but they may stain clothing. As you wear them, you will catch a delicate scent of roses now and then. The heat of your body brings out the scent. They also become shiny and smooth as you wear them. |  | |

Roses are the most meaningful of flowers, sending messages of love and friendship of memory and loss. They are delicate and prolific. The petals fall quickly but the bushes are hard, woody and long lived. The petals are soft, sweet of fragrance and of taste, but the thorns are sharp, poisonous and painful. The rose is a woman. Treat gently or BEWARE.
