So come back next Friday for more fun, and join us on Tuesday for "Pro-Life Tuesdays!" You can post something as simple as a picture depicting the beauty of life, or write about stories you know, or post videos, or 40 days for Life updates, or legislation updates, or calls to action...the possibilities are endless.

We are making up little graphic buttons you can post on your sidebars to invite more people to join us. I just love how this brings more traffic to everyone, so everyone wins! My girls and I are also so enjoying visiting all of your blogs--what a witness to my daughters your beautiful families are!
One lady I met through her comments yesterday is Jen. I just had to show you all this adorable mini St. Bernadette at the Grotto set she made:
Is that cute or what? Here's the description:
"This is a nine piece playset consisting of a St. Bernadette doll, Our Lady of Lourdes doll, a four piece puzzle which is painted on both sides to depict the grotto and Bernadette's home, a bed with attached pillow, blanket for the bed, and a table.

All are painted with non-toxic acrylic paint and sealer or non-toxic shellac. The pillow is reclaimed felted wool fabric, the blanket is new quilter's cotton cut with pinking shears to reduce fraying.
The puzzle was made by me with a gig-saw (whew - I know!). It is made out
of pine and is fairly light."
And this lady has four little kids! (me ::bowing down:: "I am not worthy"... :P)
You can visit Jen at her blog http://jenspixiedust.blogspot.com/. You can purchase her adorable toys at her little Etsy shop. (That's also where our boutique is. ;))
You've gotta stop by and see all the different little felt and wooden saint dolls she's made! http://www.stannespixies.etsy.com/ww.stannespixies.etsy.com/
My kids are grown or I'd buy them all (and I'm not getting paid for this -_-). They would look awfully cute on a shelf though...hmm.



Everything at Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/ ) is handmade and there are quite a few Catholic artists
there. We belong to the Etsy Rosary Guild for rosary makers, and I just started a new guild called Catholic Etsy Artists Guild. I'll highlight some of their amazing work from time to time. :)
