My little girls have a small, beloved collection of Sue Dow’s hand painted wooden figures. Each of them also has a wishlist of those they would like to add to their collections. They fussed at me recently when Sue sent me St. Teresa of Calcutta and I told them that she was for me! I love St. Teresa as so many do, and I am excited that Sue has added her to the saints in her shop, In the Loft. I think most of you who read my blog regularly know Sue’s work, but if not, you can read more about her and her art here.
Today, Sue would like to give one Small Things reader a St. Teresa of Calcutta hand-painted wooden figure. In addition, she is offering 10% off all saint figures in her shop using the coupon code ALLSAINTS10. The discount is good through Friday. All Saints Day is coming up soon, followed closely by Advent!
For your chance to win, leave a comment on this post. Comments are closed and the winner is Clarice, who commented, “Beautiful. Would love to have.”
Thanks, Sue!

Ah… i figured how to leave a comment! I love these figures. Our homeschooled 17 year old daughter recently played St. Teresa in the play Malcolm and Teresa put on by our homeschool community. We made the costume together and we had to make and sew on yards and yards of blue bias tape! What a memory! This statue would be a great momento for my daughter. So fun to celebrate the canonization of this modern saint.
