This post is way overdue! At the beginning of December, I met with Deb and Sarah to see the practical life they were putting together for Advent in the Good Shepherd Atrium. They did a great job and I took pictures to share on the blog, but in the busyness of the holidays I failed to post them. So today, as Deb and Sarah put together the practical life shelves for the very short season of Christmas, I am finally getting these pictures out to you!!
Thank you so much Deb and Sarah for all the skill you bring and time you put into making our atria materials beautiful and meaningful!

ReplyDeleteHi Ticia, Its been so long I can't remember! I believe I bought them online from a small shop. But here is a link to the same set on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Jesus-Russian-Nesting-Doll/dp/B000CP8GFO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1388966970&sr=8-3&keywords=nesting+dolls+nativity
