Hi everyone. I am curious about learning how to pray with prayer beads. I already pray the rosary as I am an Anglo-Catholic and agree with the Catholic Marian dogmas. Could someone please teach me how to pray with Anglican Prayer Beads?

Holly - As a former Catholic, I have nearly given up the rosary as I feel there is too much emphasis on Mary, taking us away from the primary importance of Jesus. However, I have received great consolation from Mary on more than one occasion - she is, after all the mother of my Lord.
For your interest in Anglican prayer beads, here is an excellent website that will show you the beads and explain their use, along with several very excellent prayers to be used. One of my favorites comes from Julian of Norwich. I am particularly pleased with the configuration of 33 beads, one for every year of our Lord's life.
The address is kingofpeace.org/prayer beads
I hope this is helpful to you and if you need a source for the beads, I'll be glad to pass on my source. You'll find there are several out there.
God bless.

try Cathedralrosaries.com--I got a beautiful set of beads from them and the quality was excellent--plus I liked that they use PayPal.
