Growing up, the period time between Halloween and Thanksgiving meant one thing, and one thing only:

the JCPenny catalog.

Oh, how I loved that giant book of amazing goodness, full of clothes and toys and who knows what else I thought I needed. My sister and I would scrutinize every single page, circling a million things and writing lists just as long.

No, I’m not exaggerating.

Mom, if you’re reading this – I’m sorry.

Now that I’m a mom to two darling girls, I see the pattern starting all over. The Toys R Us catalog arrived the other day, and my two busy bees got to work highlighting their favorite finds. While I love seeing the same enthusiasm and excitement I had as a child, my goal for them this season goes beyond material goods.

I want to give my girls the gift of faith – of concrete reminders and encouragement in their journey.

Last fall, I curated a fantastic gift guide for Catholic girls featuring items exclusively from Catholic vendors. This year I’m happy to bring you a newly expanded, updated gift guide for 2017, full of beautiful items that will inspire our daughters in their journey of faith.

Welcome to the 2017 Ultimate Gift Guide for Catholic Girls

Come have a look, support Catholic artisans, and find meaningful gifts your Catholic daughter.
