Please read my refund policy on made-to-order items if you have any questions about cancelling your order. Scapulars are sewn in the order in which the orders are placed. Please do not ask me to make yours ahead of someone else's. Thank you. About the scapular: In the year 1251, Our Lady appeared to St. Simon Stock, a Carmelite. She handed him a brown woolen scapular and said, "This shall be a privilege for you and all Carmelites, that anyone dying in this habit shall not suffer eternal fire." In time, the Church extended this magnificent privilege to all the laity who are willing to be invested in the Brown Scapular. The scapular must be 100% wool without plastic casing and should not be pinned or affixed to clothing. It is worn over the head, under one's clothes, with one square of wool hanging on the chest and the other on the back. -- sistersofcarmel.org Reviews on this item: "Gorgeous, handmade work.
