Introducing! *drumroll*

THE SHAKER SISTERS!  :)

I recently shared this photo with a favorite relative of mine, who also shares a love and curiousity for the gals of the holy habit.


Srs. Mary Salt and Mary Pepper
or, better known as
The Shaker Sisters
(yes, they both have four holes in their head)

I purchased them at an antique mall. They were living in a locked glass case. Fortunately they caught my eye as I was about to leave. Aren't their facial expressions priceless? One with eyes closed in deep, peaceful meditation; The other praising God, eyes lifted towards the heavens!
Check out those rosy cheeks :)


Dedicated to my most favorite nun, Sister Irena. 
"RIP"
