I've scattered examples throughout my blog but today I thought I'd show you some more of them. I think you either like this stuff or hate it (like my husband!) Have a look and see what you think...
I bought these from a local swap meet but I think they originally come from an old Sunday School. My plan was to hang one above each of my daughters beds but they refused to let me, so now they sit covered in dust in our shed! A great shame I think.
Here are a few pictures that I haven't shown you yet...I seem to have lots of these and I remember having similar ones in my bedroom when I was a child.
Look at Mary's beautifully serene face.
Apologies for the glare - they are all covered in some kind of plastic which doesn't photograph too well (or at least not with my camera!)
These next two are my pride and joy...they are kitschy with a capital K and extremely OTT! I love them and even my husband thinks these are o.k. because they are just so wrong they are almost right!
And look at the back...
This hung above Dora and Pasquale's bed for sixty four years. Real treasure. It also says Ricordo di Egiolio -please tell me if you know what it means.
This is from Dora and Pasquale's home too
Another beautiful Mary AND she lights up...
See.
I nearly bought some more of these on the weekend...Oh how I wish I had...
All of this religion has reminded me of when I was seven. My brother and sisters and I went to a fancy dress party... my brother went dressed-up as a policeman, one sister a ballerina, the other a Hawaiian girl and I went as the SINGING NUN! What was I thinking? Apparently it was all MY idea too, but I'm not sure if I believe my Mum about that! The Flying Nun would have been way cooler! I'm going to see if I can find a pic to show you. Hilarious!
Well that's enough religion for one day. God bless and here's the tea towel
Greetings from Darwin.
Isn't it wonderful! They must have a lot of b.b.q's there!
