Since I have been spending a great deal of time at my parent's home, I thought it appropriate to take some photos of what my mom loves best-her religious collection. One might think that upon entering their home that you have stepped into an old church. She has collected religious items and statuaries for years, and it shows. Nearly every inch of the house is covered, and you must be very careful where you walk. But I do have to admit that her collection is impressive and beautiful.....

  1. Wow, that is a impressive collection.
    I have collected some icons and already my friends and family think it's a bit to much.
    So I think this is great! I love your moms collection and I think it's wonderful she does what she like's.
    (Forgive my poor English, but you get the picture?? hi,hi..)

  4. That is amazing and I am sure enjoying this tour.
    I have never seen a religious collection like this and it is fun to enlarge the photos and see it closer.

  12. Wow! For several years I had many religious items displayed in my home as well. But...I have now put my 3 story home on the market and was forced to make it a little more generic. I have packed many of my things away for my next home but I do have a 5' tall statue of St. Agnes that I am hoping to sell. If you know of anyone who might be interested I will send pictures. Feel free to contact me at helikert@hotmail.com. My name is Tricia.
