Crusader cross & box from Jerusalem.

Crusader Cross

crystal rosary that was blessed by Pope Paul. This was my Grandma's. I was given a smaller version at the time as I was just a little girl.

The above rosary

My first icon. It was given to me over 40 years ago by my Grandma.





More Crusader crosses

Ever since I was little I always had a huge pull to rosaries, icons, crosses and the like. I have no clue why. Over the years my collection has grown. Here are a few of my pieces.

DancingDolphin I had some blog time tonight and it looks like I picked a good one! These are wonderful. I've always loved religious icons of all sorts. I love #5 with Jesus peeking out from the head shawl!

turndaround They're lovely. Number four has to be my favorite though. Thanks for sharing them.

MHJphotos WONDERFUL post Julie! I'm enjoying all of these collections posts today ... but this one is spectacular. Your choice of aperture in all of these was perfect. If you would, please take a MACRO of one of these amazing crosses when you get your new lens! It would make for a stunning post me thinks! ;)

Nayah Really nice collection.... I think you are completely right about the fact that sometimes you are attracted by things without really knowing why....
