Month of May: Month of Mary! Crafts and Activities inspired by Mother Mary and the Rosary!
We’re well into May! Here’s a quick picture summary of some of our favorite Rosary and Mary Crafts!
Our oversized wood bead Rosary is always a hit at the conferences we attend. This is a pretty simple craft made with wooden beads, a wooden cross and a wooden heart, acrylic paint and mod podge…and it’s one of the favorites in our book A Treasure Chest of Traditions for Catholic Families!
DIY Heirloom Play Mass Set
It’s hard to believe that Adam is going to be seven this week!
Last year, I made a Play Mass kit for Adam…and I love the way it turned out!
I put a quick little ‘how-to’ craft kit for you with information for my favorite wood supply store…complete with an itemized purchase list to make it easy for you. See below…
DIY Heirloom Child Chasuble
We made this Heirloom Play Mass Kit for Adam last year…
He was doing fine with his Play Mass Kit, but I decided to make him his own priest vestment…a Chasuble.
I bought a metre of no-wrinkle white fabric, some ribbon and some ribbon-sized heat bond (iron-on adhesive).
Apostle Painted Saints
It has been a while since I crafted something, so this week I painted a set of Apostles as part of my #paintedsaint collection. They are the small ones…measuring just under 1 3/4″. They’re not perfect, because it’s difficult painting detail with toothpicks, but I think that that adds to their charm.
NEW Divine Mercy Abacus with Novena Prayer Carousel!
We’ve added something to our line of Easy as Abacus Prayer Trackers! Check out the Divine Mercy Carousel…keeping the prayers for each day of the Novena all ready for you! Just in time for Good Friday…when the Divine Mercy Novena starts!
Hands-On Holy Week!
Over the years, we have been creating and collecting cute kid crafts to help delve into the Liturgical Calendar and facilitate a Hands-On Holy Week!
Holy Week is the most important week of the whole year! Here’s a summary post of crafts you can make and reintroduce year after year… for this special week! Click on the links (or the pictures) for more details and picture tutorials!
