I don't want this to be a commercial for anyone, so if the Administrator feels that this post is not appropriate and feels it should be deleted, I will not be offended.
Some great websites I have found that sell Eastern European things, both religious and non-religious.
http://www.marketworks.com/StoreFrontProfiles/default.aspx?sfid=78319 The St. Joseph Bookstore for Boys
http://folkart.uzhgorod.ua/ Traditional Carpathian Folk Arts and Crafts--name says it all.
http://www.egg-in-wrap.com/default.asp Leemar Enterprises--some great stuff
http://www.iarelative.com/ and then scroll down on the left side until you get to shopping.
I'm not getting paid by anyone of these places. I have bought from them all. They are great. The Bookstore in particular has some absolutely gorgeous Christmas tree decorations--very gracefully cut out of golden metal. Onion domed churches, Slovakian Wooden Churches, St. Nicholas, Nativity Icon ornaments, etc. They are so beautiful.
Enjoy the coming holidays and remembe the reason for the season. My church, as part of a fundraiser, is ornamenting a Christmas Tree, and we are planning on some wonderful things. I'm going to be donating my metal ornaments that I mentioned above. I'm sure they will look great.
