Celebrating Catholic Family and Faith with crafts, Catechesis and traditions!
June Saints and Feast Days offer awesome opportunities to celebrate our Catholic Faith at HOME! If you’re just getting started…just pick one each month and save the crafts and decor you make and collect for years to come! It doesn’t take much effort to celebrate a Saints Day and enjoy how it becomes a unique family tradition, that your kids will ask for, even when you forget!
Well, we can’t send you Advent Wreath candles, but we can give you ready-made Advent Calendar printables and activities, some of which you can use YEAR after YEAR!
Advent is such a cool Liturgical Season! Even the secular world is selling ‘Advent’ Calendars stocked with Lego, Funko Pops, or other treats, just as a countdown to Christmas! We can make our Countdown to Jesus’ Birth…all ABOUT Jesus with Bible Stories and Faith-filled reflections and activities, that point all along toward the Nativity.
Invite the Saints into your EVERY DAY with these Saints Calendar Printables!

The Calendar Saint Stickies includes templates of 461 stickers for monthly devotions, Sacraments, Saints Feast Days (and more!) to convert regular fridge or wall calendars, homeschool or blogger planners, Spiritual Journals or diaries!
Since our Scrabble game went missing, I decided to make use of a bag of tiles I had on hand to make letter tiles for word games.
I realize…not everyone has a stash of crafting supplies, I’m open to suggestions for what others may have on hand that could be used for this project!
We just recently built a shed in our backyard…from a Home Depot kit, but I’m kind of proud nonetheless with our newbie carpentry and roofing skills.
I guess the recent building experience has upped my confidence a bit, because I decided to try another wood-working project.
We’re counting the days down until the Feast of Pentecost! The Birthday of the Church!
Are you looking of for some Catholic Crafts or family activities or traditions for this Sunday’s Feast?
Do you have a few too many tired/well-used/burnt votive candles lying around the house? We did…and we decided to try recycling votive candles! We gave them new life with leftover wax and stubby candles…along with our favorite watercolored Kelly Saints from this craft kit. After having just released our new Lock Screen Prayer Prompts, I think I might need to recycle a couple more votives and adhere these images with Kelly Saints and Prayer Prompts: which is your favorite here?
Equipping Catholic Families… for Christmas!
Welcome to our monthly summary of crafts and family traditions related to the Monthly Devotion, Key Feast Days and the appropriate Season of the Liturgical Calendar.

The Advent Calendar is a great way to countdown the days until Christmas. You’ll find lots of chocolate covered ones in the stores now, but you can make your own and fill it with dollarstore Nativity figures, holy medals, Saint pegs, Super Saints, printable Advent Quest challenges and of course your favorite treats or chocolates. There are so many ways to make an Advent Calendar (including this one we made years ago) and we found 35 [Awesome} DIY Advent Calendars here.
