October Saints and St Therese!

September 30, 2013 by Monica McConkey Leave a Comment

October begins tomorrow…and hosts the Feast Days of some of our FAVORITE Saints!

Tomorrow is the Feast Day of St Thérèse.

Want to make a It’s My Feast Day Party Plate?

We love St Thérèse, her example of living The Little Way, the roses she sends as a sign of her intercession and all the teachings in this best-book-ever I Believe in Love.

Broken Statues and St Padre Pio

September 20, 2013 by Monica McConkey 1 Comment

We are big fans of St Padre Pio. It started when my daughter Kelly picked up the little monk statue at a bookstore. She started reading books about him and he became one of our favorite family patron Saints. We even made a St Padre Pio Wooden Painted Saint.

Easy-Sew Saints

Are you afraid of SEWING?

I know it can be intimidating, especially if you insist on doing everything perfectly. Although my grade 8 Home Ec teacher would probably have a little bit of a fit if she looked at the underside of most of my sewing projects, I’m quite satisfied with what I have accomplished by sewing!

I’m excited about this product because I really like Illuminated Ink’s coloring pages and the idea of an organization folder for the Liturgical Calendar.

Illuminated Ink’s Sacred Seasons Liturgical Calendar comes with blank calendar templates for each season along with Illuminated Ink‘s classic (but new, improved and expanded!) saint symbol stickers, informative Season explanations and awesome coloring pages.

Can YOU find SAINTS?

August 27, 2013 by Monica McConkey Leave a Comment

A few months ago, I was the WINNER of this awesome book over at Contemplative Homeschool, thanks to Connie and Catholic Family Gifts.

The truth is that I was hoping to get my hands on Can You Find Saints? after seeing it at a few Catholic conferences. It’s a great book!

Wooden Painted Saint: Proper Tutorial

July 14, 2013 by Monica McConkey 15 Comments

Our Wooden Painted Saints attracted a lot of attention at the IHM conference in Virginia! We had quite a few people asking to place orders for their own set!

These little wooden peg people are really fun to make so I thought that I would post a proper step-by-step tutorial. I have been particularly impressed with the tutorial picture style of this website and have tried to make my own version!
