Mini Mexican Saints Wallet - too cute!




Everyone could do with some saintly protection and a pocket full of blessings right? In Mexico these curiously appealing saint wallets are carried by those who believe they will bring blessings and protection.

I may not be Catholic, but I would never turn my nose up at the chance of a saint bestowing a blessing or two upon me. Besides, they are a mini work of art in themselves. I just can't resist them.
