The Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is Friday and the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is Saturday!
Excerpts from A Treasure Chest of Traditions for Catholic Families , various posts at Equipping Catholic Families and our Saint Scripts Craft Kits (Series ONE and TWO).
Last year I made a video of the Woven Paper Heart Craft . It can be made out of paper or felt and used as a pocket to hold love notes or prayer intentions!
This is my Immaculate Heart of Mary peg doll, using Lacy’s Peg Doll Printables and the paint brush tip eyes to match my army of Wooden Painted Saints.
Here’s our original Mary peg doll!
I’ve got lots of tips for making this smaller size of peg saint and our Michaels’ barn turned Cathedral never gets old! Adam plays with the painted saints…pretty much every day.
Can’t find the wooden barn from Michaels? Make your own Custom Catholic Church out of a Cracker Box!
