Welcome to my blog!

Welcome to my very first blog! My name is Louise, and I sell my Rosaries and Cards on my website Le Rule Originals. This blog is something that I have wanted to start for awhile now so that I could share my passion for hand crafting and all it involves.

I enjoy creating an item which is going to be used in such a special way, like a Rosary. It may be that it is a present for a First Holy Communion, a Confirmation, or even a Baptism/Christening. As soon as it is presented, it becomes that recipient's special treasure to carry through life.

It is the same with the cards. I know that I have kept every card that my children and my grandchildren have made for me. From their first 'scribblings' to their best work - I adore them all, and will never part with them. Gone are the days when my fridge door was festooned with 'art' - but my memories are strong with their contributions to special occasions.

It is the same with the First Holy Communion, or Confirmation and especially the Baptism/Christening cards. These are occasions that are never repeated, they are beyond special, they are life affirming. A card is an enduring keepsake, kept in a scrapbook of the occasion, or a scrapbook celebrating a birthday, who knows?

This is what I am about, I make items for people to cherish, to remember a day, an event, a person. Follow me on my blog, or on Twitter and Face-book, and we will see where we will go.
