Hi everyone, This post is a “test” to see what all of you want and are desiring — Back in July Elizabeth and I started creating these Liturgical ornaments and sharing our creations with you so you, too, could make them if you wanted. Well, I’ve gotten a number of people asking if I have patterns for the ornaments. I’m sorry to say: no, I don’t. We free-hand all of our parts and I just take a picture of them before we glue them together. But I thought long and hard about the requests for patterns, and after a long discussion with my husband, I thought I’d run a test post on this topic to see if this idea is worth the time it will take to create. Please understand that it will take time to create patterns for the ornaments and sadly I don’t have a lot to free time. Homeschooling 9 kids is a full-time job as many of you know! But I want to help all of you if I can, so I’m offering a set of patterns to download, but I’m planning to charge a small fee for the patterns because if I take the time to create them I’ll need to order out for dinner, pay a babysitter, etc. I hope you all understand. Today’s “test” set is Our Lady of Guadalupe and St. Juan Diego. The set includes patterns to create a felt ornament for each. It also has the instructions on how to assemble the felt ornaments. Just cut out the pattern, pin it onto the correct color felt and cut them out! That’s nice and easy for you! I actually discovered that cutting the felt along with the paper was easier than cutting the felt alone! So don’t worry that this will be hard to do. I’m amazed at how easy this makes the production of these ornaments! Printable Paper Ornaments  This printable set also includes 4 printable paper ornaments. Our Lady of Guadalupe in color Our Lady of Guadalupe in black and white (for coloring) St Juan Diego in color St. Juan Diego in black and white (for coloring) I didn’t originally plan to add these, but after I made the patterns for the felt ornaments I basically had them half finished. So I just decided to go ahead and create them for those who don’t want to mess with the felt. These would be great for teachers who want to have a craft that all the kids can easily make! Or your kids may want to make an ornament like mom! 😉Choose the set in full color or the black and white set, which the kids can paint or color. Here is a peek at the full download: If you like this idea and want to buy this set you can purchase it here for $1.99 You are free to make as many copies as you need for your class or family. Because this is a “test” post, I’d really like to have your thoughts on this. Please leave a comment or send me an email.  If you are not interested in the felt patterns and only want the printable ornaments, (or vice-versa) please let me know your thoughts. Your purchase supports this idea and if enough people seem interested I will continue to make the sets.

I received some very good feedback on “test” post for the Liturgical Ornament patterns, so I’m going to move forward and offer this St. Nicholas and St. Lucy set. This set includes: St. Nicholas Felt Ornament Pattern St. Nicholas Felt Ornament Instructions St. Nicholas Felt Ornament (Advanced Style) St. Nicholas Felt Ornament Instructions (Advanced Style) St. Nicholas Paper Ornament – Colored St. Nicholas Paper Ornament – Black and White St. Nicholas Coloring Page St. Lucy Felt Ornament Pattern St. Lucy Felt Ornament Instructions St. Lucy Paper Ornament – Colored St. Lucy Paper Ornament – Black and White St. Lucy Coloring Page This pattern set includes a smaller St. Nicholas ornament and a St. Lucy ornament pattern, as well as, a larger St. Nicholas ornament pattern! The larger St. Nicholas ornament would be great for those who would like a little more of a challenge! These would make GREAT homemade gifts for Christmas!! The set also includes the 4 printable paper ornaments. These are for those who don’t want to mess with the felt, or they are nice for younger kids who would like a simple craft to create. I also threw in a few of these simple coloring pages. There are lots of fun pages in this download! It’s only $1.99. Visit our download shop! Feel free to print out as many as you need for a single class or family.

About Us Hello, from the wooded mountains in Southern Pennsylvania! Our Story Catholic Inspired started in 2010 as the Lawrence family blog. The main goal was to be able to share family events with an aunt who lived hours away. She was sick with cancer and sadly died not long after we started our blogging journey. In that short time we quickly saw how the Catholic crafts that we created as a family were well loved by other Catholic families and teachers! So we then switched our focused to sharing our Catholic crafts on our blog, It’s been an amazing experience to share our family’s Catholic activities throughout these past years! Now as our family has grown and we no longer have young children, our focus has shifted a bit again. Our once young artsy family now loves creating Catholic devotionals. We enjoy creating jewelry and home décor that focuses on the saints and Catholic faith. We are happy to share all our creations here on this site, either for you to purchase or for you to learn to create your own! We hope you will join us on our crafty and creative Catholic journey!
