My third one! Yes, they're that good!
I bought the first one for myself as a confirmation gift because one of our Deacons, in a class for new Catholics, said every Catholic home must have a few things - one of them was a statue or photo or painting, etc., of our Blessed Mother Mary. I bought the second for a woman in my Bible study, who is from Peru and just moved into a new home. I bought the third one for my sister, because when she saw a photo of mine, she fell in love with it - not for the religious appeal, but from a folk art perspective - and after looking at many online, I can't agree more. I watched the video of how the artisan makes the retablo and it added even greater value to it. I simply love them. I love the scene behind Mary - the high mountains, and the flowers, in a wooden box with doors. I mounted mine on a wall in my home office and see it from where I sit. I'm buying the next one as a thank you gift for a close friend who I will be visiting in a few weeks.

I love this little guy!
Our landlord doesn’t allow pets, so when I came across this sculpture my cat-craving kicked in and I just had to have it. It’s so sweet and cute. I have it sitting on a wooden end table and I love to see it gazing up at me adorably. My young son just asked if I was writing a review of the cat and I said yes. He said to make sure it’s five stars because he loves it. It really does bring us joy.
