I have a 17" statue of the Infant of Prague that I "rescued" at a garage sale...it is in need of a new paint job, but I thought I would make some nice vestments for Him. I would like to make this very special. Does anyone know how I could go about doing this?

Any ideas or tips to share?

I want Him to have a nice space in our home...I am also trying to think of a devotional way to display Him
What would you do...hmmm?

TIA!

Donna Marie:
Here is my friend, Tracy's, Infant of Prague statue that she made vestments for a few years ago:





His home is on her bedroom dresser with his mother year round. She had him next to her Christmas tree one year.

And, I just cannot mention Tracy without linking to her beautiful Catholic artwork!!!!!
