Lifted Hearts greatly supported our prayerful needs. We ordered a custom-made Decade Rosary as a gift for a family member who was doing their Sacraments. Lifted Hearts was so patient with us throughout the design and hand-making process, delivering both a beautiful and personal piece for our family member. We highly recommend the services of this wonderful small business. May Our Lady pray for us.

Overall Love Notes is a book that starts with identity, moves out of the self to discussions on desire, settles in love in the third act and then ends with a sense of loss with an encore discussing change.
‘Wishing For You’ was my favourite of the second part. Extremely beautiful and was full of desire, romantic idealism (in a good sense) and passion for an enduring love that continues after death. I really loved it.

My Rosary decade, a St Patrick's design, is a real treasure that will always remind me to pray for my first parish of St Patrick's Sutherland. Beautifully crafted, praying with the decade really helps me to lift my heart to God in prayer.

I purchased Lifted Hearts' Divine Mercy Rosary decade a few months ago, and with it's convenient size and smooth feel of the beads it has proved to be indispensible to my prayer-kit. It fits nicely into a small pouch and is handy for taking travelling. The image of Our Lady on these beads is also gentle and inspiring.

As a modest business with a massive cause in Christ, I started lifted hearts to help foster connection and deep devotion through beautiful arts. These arts - from our signature Holy Rosary decades to original works of faith-based poetry - are aimed at providing heartfelt expression and promotion of creativity.
Part of the proceeds of this business are directly contributed to the support of the Catholic Church and her mission - from helping the Holy Souls in Purgatory by Holy Mass offerings, to donations to local Parishes.
lifted hearts connects heartfelt emotion with creative expression; lifting up our hearts and arts for the furthering of faith, hope and love in this world.
Our core values are Christ-centeredness, Community and Creativity.
yours in Christ and Creativity
Isabelle Williams from lifted hearts
As with life there can be no triumph without a necessary downfall. Love of course as shown in the book has its challenges. The poems take you on a journey of love that pull at your heart strings and have you reaching for the next page. A great collection of poems & highly recommend to anyone who is daring to fall in love.Cheerful yet quirky, funny yet philosophical, & honest yet heart wrenching at times.
The poet touches upon the fragile nature of being in love & the emotional journey one takes in discovering its beauty & its downfall.

These Rosary decades are exactly what I love about special and personal gifts. Personalised for each person and their unique needs, and then being completely prayer centred; it truly makes this the perfect gift for others, but also for ourselves!

I was moved by the poet's vulnerability. I actually had to put it down a few times because there were moments where I felt like I was intruding.

We post our products Australia-wide via Australia Post. Orders are carefully wrapped to protect your handmade piece or book in transit. Postage is a flat rate of $7.99. Standard delivery within Australia usually takes 5–10 business days once your order has been dispatched; please allow a little extra time during busy liturgical seasons, or around Christmas and Easter. If you're local to Sydney, you are welcome to collect your order in person at one of our stalls; we will email you with confirmation upon receipt of your order, and advise of the delivery or collection arrangements.
Because every Rosary, decade and chaplet is made by hand with care and prayer, our pieces aren't mass-produced; and that's part of their beauty. Ready-made items are typically dispatched within 5 business days. Custom and personalised, or wholesale orders take a little longer; please allow up to 20 business days from the time your order is confirmed, as each is crafted to your chosen saint, cause or intention. If you need a piece by a particular date; a Baptism, First Holy Communion, Confirmation or Wedding, just let us know and we will work to your timeline.
Our prices reflect the handmade nature of each piece and the quality of materials used; beads, medals, centre-pieces and crucifixes vary, so cost can vary too. Current prices are listed with each item in the order form(s). For custom and bespoke commissions that may not be covered under the form, simply send us your request to liftedheartsworkshop@gmail.com. Part-proceeds of every sale support Mass offerings for the Holy Souls in Purgatory, so each purchase is also a small act of charity, love and support of others.
Our Rosaries, decades and chaplets are sacramentals; holy items meant to be used reverently, with love and care. A few simple things will help your piece last:
Handle it gently and store it somewhere safe, such as a pouch or small box, rather than loose in a pocket or bag where beads and wires can be strained. Keep it away from water, perfume and harsh chemicals, and wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth when needed. Avoid pulling or tugging on the chain or wire links; they are durable and resistant but not to careless use.
Should your piece ever need mending, please reach out; we're glad to help with repairs to keep it in prayerful service for years to come. If your item has been blessed by a priest and one day becomes broken beyond repair, it should be disposed of reverently in keeping with Catholic practice (traditionally by burying or burning) rather than thrown away.
