Vintage! Religious medals












Some of my most treasured vintage finds have been Catholic medals, icons and rosaries. The older ones have the most gorgeous detail, and, again, I have to wonder where they have been and who took comfort from them along the years.


These are a few of the pieces I've made using these lovely relics.

  2. Excellent pieces. I hated Catholic school but always loved all of the medals and statues. I had a glass glow-in-the-dark rosary, but I ended up selling it on eBay.
