Wooden Painted Saint: Proper Tutorial
July 14, 2013 by 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!

Feetprinting for St Peter and St Paul!
June 27, 2013 by 5 Comments
June 29 is the Feast of St. Peter and St. Paul!
St. Peter is the patron saint of foot trouble.
Years ago…I took a 4’x4′ canvas and let my kids make footprints with paint. Actually…it was 1999!
I only had two kids then…they were 31/2 and 1…and they had really cute feet.

Continuing with our series on Unique Gifts for Catholic Teachers, Catechists and Grandparents, how about creating a personalized Prayerbook with the help of our All Season Prayer Bank Craft Kit?
A few weeks ago, I shared my own Pinterest Prayer Book, incorporating awesome artwork collected on Pinterest with our favorite family prayers. I used a travel photo album purchased at Walmart and added our favorite holy card images, prayer cards, unique religious artwork and printed prayers from the prayer-packed craft kit.

This post launches a new series on Unique Gifts you can print and assemble for your favorite Catholic Teacher, Catechist or Grandparent!
Catholic Teacher Gifts with Poker Chips!
I have made a few different games using poker chips from the dollar store! These are made quite easily with 8.5″x 11″ label paper (also from the dollar store) and a 1.5″ circle punch. The label paper makes it quite easy to adhere images to poker chips. If you choose to have the images printed on regular paper and mod podge them to the poker chips…please either:
