I looked up the 'rules' for making scapulars, and all I could nail down was that they had to be brown and they had to be wool. And as I just so happened to have a beautiful piece of hand-dyed chocolate brown wool, I imagine it was Providence.
These scapulars have been made with the aforementioned beautiful hand-dyed chocolate brown 100% pure wool felt, which has been pinked into a circle. On each side is an image taken from a vintage French prayer card. The two wool discs are connected by a length of gold satin ribbon.
As I was taught it by the nuns in elementary school, if you die while you are wearing a scapular, you get to go straight into heaven. That seems like a wonderful loophole. However, at the moment these are purely decorative items, but are perfectly suitable to have blessed by a priest if you would like. Or if you don't want it blessed you can just keep it as a pretty thing, maybe hang it off of your dressing table mirror or something.
A scapular would make a nice gift for a First Holy Communion or Confirmation. I will provide a little decorative envelope for it as well. There are five of them, please let me know which you would prefer, or else I can choose for you.
