9 Extraordinary Gifts for Beautiful Catholic Women

This post contains affiliate links with several businesses. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Gift giving is a love language of mine.  BUT, I HATE clutter!

It stresses me out and I find myself donated at least one bag a month to charity.

Gift to me are wonderful – but they need to be really special and often practical.

Here are some incredible products I know I would love!

9 Extraordinary Gifts for Beautiful Catholic Women

1. Miraculous Medal Necklaces

I love that Our Blessed Mother promised to send extra graces to those that wear her medal around their neck.  I don’t wear a lot of jewelry, but I have come to find and truly embrace a few different Miraculous Medal necklaces.  I wear on every day.

Some of my favorites are from Telos Art and Pink Salt Riot

and Boho Handmaids

This year Pink Salt Riot has an entire Mother’s Day Collection!

Read more about why I wear a Miraculous Medal here: Five Reasons Why I Wear a Miraculous Medal

2. Rosary Bracelets

There are some gorgeous, trendy, beautiful, amazing ones out there!

Here are my current favorites:

ChewsLifeOUR LADY GATE OF HEAVEN ROSARY BRACELET

I also love Give Love & Blessings and Relics by Rose

Read how the Rosary is a powerful prayer here: The Power of ONE Rosary and

how starting a Rosary group is a good idea here: Five Reasons to Start a Rosary

3. Coffee and Coffee Related Products

I recently saw an article that said something like “Why Coffee is Catholic”.  I didn’t read it.  I think I just shook my head yes, took a sip of mine and kept scrolling.  Lately, my life is more, “prayer, COFFEE, chocolate” if I’m keeping it real here.

I love these coffee mugs made by fellow Christians – and this sign made by Just Love Prints!

Last year my husband bought me two mugs from my friend Kristin’s shop (OneHailMaryataTime and ManyHailMarysataTime).  These are my “go to” mugs every morning!  My favorite is covered in quick prayers.  This year’s version is pictured above.  I love it!

My favorite Catholic mugs out there (yes, if you are shopping for me I want these) are Rakstar Design’s “Morning Has Broken, Coffee will fix it” mug.

And Fawnly’s Our Lady, Undoer of Knots Mug

(My husband even admits to liking that Undoer of Knots mug!)

4. Socks from Sock Religious

I own a pair but I also love them because they are great to give as gifts.  Our family started the “leave your shoes out for Saint Nicholas” tradition a few years ago.  This year I’m excited to put a pair of St. Nick socks in everyone’s shoes!  These are perfect for the feast of Saint Nick, but also for a family like ours who really loves an ugly Christmas sweater party!  Not that these socks are ugly at all – they just add to festivity of the season and make me smile 🙂

5. Helpful Journals

I was pleasantly surprised recently when I met with my Mom’s group and this book was given out by our leader.  A Parent Who Prays.  I’ve had my eye on it for some time.  Then, much to my delight, the author messaged me on Instagram and asked me to review her newest book A Spouse Who Prays


6. Joy in a Box 🙂

Each Joy Box is $85+ worth of PSR products for $25

with free domestic shipping ($12 international shipping).

Each box includes:

  • 2-3 5×7 art prints
  • 6 greeting cards (2 or more designs each box)
  • 2+ vinyl stickers (and I LOVE stickers – if you do to, please check this out: Catholic Sticker Heaven)
  • 2-3 pieces of jewelry, accessories, and other handmade goodies to give + keep
  • Surprises! (surprises have included an extra stickers, a printed gift bag, tattoos, and more!)

And there is a new gift box option that has me pouring over this website, often!

Telos Jewelry Subscription Box

What if, by the end of 2023 you, or a person you love, had a complete collection of jewelry from Telos Art Shop? Our liturgically themed Quarterly Subscription Box makes this dream a reality! Each quarter a new item will arrive in the mail with a unique piece of jewelry and a special note behind the inspiration of each piece. (Images depicted are an example only, final designs will be kept a surprise!)

Centered around the liturgical seasons, boxes will be sent within each quarter (April-May, July-September, October-December) with a theme related to a special feast day or celebration. By the end of 2023 recipients will receive four handmade gifts, including:

  • one set of earrings (sent with First Quarter Box in January)

  • one 16” necklace with Catholic medal

  • one stretch or bangle bracelet with Catholic symbolism

  • one 18” necklace with Catholic medal

Each box will also feature a bonus gift and will include an explanation behind the inspiration of each piece.

Items included in the box will be offered at a lower price within the subscription box and might not be available outside of the boxes themselves.

Select either the Gold Box or the Silver Box. Gold will feature yellow bronze or gold filled items. While the Silver Box will include sterling silver.

7. Holy Chocolate

Not only does this candy taste heavenly, purchasing Trappistine Quality Candy contributes to the support of the Sisters of Mount Saint Mary’s Abbey. Being sustained temporally allows us to continue our life of prayer, prayer for you and all the peoples of our world. You can even send the Sisters prayer intentions through their website – ask for prayers for the receiver too!

Holy Chocolate!

***follow Prayer Wine Chocolate on Instagram!***

8. Catholic Earrings

We could always use a new pair of pretty earrings!  And I have to confess – with the hope that someone will say that I am not alone – I often find my earrings in the washer :(.  I love earrings by Pink Salt Riot, Telos Design,  Rakstar Designs and Relics by Rose.  If my husband is reading this – please buy me these Hope Earrings from Pink Salt Riot!

The purpose of the St. Benedict medal is to call down God’s blessing and protection upon us, wherever we are, and upon our homes and possessions, especially through the intercession of St. Benedict. By the conscious and devout use of the medal, it becomes, as it were, a constant silent prayer and reminder to us of our dignity as followers of Christ. And that color pink – LOVE IT!

9. Catholic Blankets

I love a Catholic Blanket – both getting one and giving some!

It’s so lovely!  It’s so soft and it is a wonderful reminder to find comfort in prayer!!!

Honestly and truly, there is nothing like being in someone’s heart when that person is talking to God.  Prayer is such a blessing and extremely powerful.  Pray for the woman and the women that you love – it truly helps and makes a difference!

The Little Rose Shop has some beautiful blankets to choose from!!!

When I was 15 I realized that I was equating anger When I was 15 I realized that I was equating anger with self-confidence… and then I became very aware of how angry people had hurt me, but sad people were not hurtful.
At one point I remember thinking… “who do you want to be? A person that is hurtful… or someone else? if you can choose sadness instead of anger, do it. You don’t want to hurt people.”
I don’t know if Saint John Paul II really said this quote… but I do believe it’s solid advice when people we interact with do upsetting things. 

Choose sadness over anger… and pray for the people and about the situations that are upsetting you.

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of th In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is sadness, joy;
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to live.
For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. 
Amen.

These individuals shape your habits, energy, and future by acting as a reflection of your own choices and environment. 

I don’t know who Jim Rohn is, but my guess is Saint Francis DeSales would agree with him.

Ever ask this question?
I feel like I’ve been asking it my whole life.

Some of the best advice I have gotten have been from Saints.

God has a plan for each of us. We are all called to holiness… but we do not all go by the same path (wise words from Saint Katharine Drexel).

The quotes I included in the Be Yourself Journal are actionable, doable and clear.

Cheers to Friday! 🍷 I was SO EXCITED when a while Cheers to Friday! 🍷
I was SO EXCITED when a while back THE @stephanieweinert Stephanie Weinert tagged me in her #7quicktakes #sevenquicktakes #fridayintroductions post.

I’m jumping in today! 

1. I recently took my own “headshots”. The first photo is one of MANY photos I took. It was super windy that day. If you need professional photos… give it a try - you can save a ton of $ this way! I used a tripod and my phone!

2. I see a lot of people posting photos of 2016. In 2016 I heard Gianna Emanuela (daughter of Saint Gianna) give a talk. I remember thinking, “her Dad sounds like a saint too!” I got to meet her. My husband and oldest son met her and asked her to pray that we could adopt again. 40 weeks later our twins were born!

3. Gianna Emmanuela is doing all she can to help the world see how holy her Father was. She has made prayer cards with Ecclesiastic approval. I’m asking Pietro Molla to intercede for a special intention. I will post more about this soon! He is such an inspiring man!

4. I have two guilty pleasures. I love getting my hair done and every once in a while I get a box from Stitch Fix. My coat was in one of those boxes.

5. I can’t remember all the pictures I chose for this post. I’m super forgetful. It’s not my age, I’ve always been this way. Saint Anthony is busy with just me most of the time.

6. We are taking our Christmas tree down this weekend. I loved our tree so much this year. My husband, all 3 children and me picked it out. We all agreed upon it and it really is so perfect.

7. I’m not so great at tech. I don’t know how to go back and see which pictures I posted without deleting this whole post. I promised after this post I would play a @saints.alive.pod episode for my daughter. I’m off to listen to another episode for at least the 3rd time. Hoping a new one comes out soon 😉 

Thank you for reading all that! I’m so grateful you’re here! Tell me something about you!!!

Thank you Stephanie for tagging me months ago? ago… This is how behind I am on everything!
Who wants friends that pray behind your back!? Who Who wants friends that pray behind your back!?
Who wants friends that will pray with you and for you?
Let’s bless one another and pray as much as possible!!!

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen!
