Baptism Luncheon Plates
Octagon baptism party plates illustrated with a baptismal font, cross and Holy Spirit dove, for a Catholic baptism party.
Throw the most beautiful baptism party ever. These baptism luncheon plates are octagon shaped (like many baptismal fonts) to represent the eighth day, which is the first day of the new creation. At baptism we are made a new creation.
The IHS inscription on the font is an ancient Christian symbol for Jesus. Above the font is a cross and the Holy Spirit dove descending onto the scalloped shell with water. The scalloped shell is the symbol for the pilgrim and the new Christian is embarking on the pilgrimage of faith. The baptismal candle is inscribed with the Chi-Rho symbol, another ancient symbol for Christ. On the other side of the baptismal font is the table with anointing oils.
These are luncheon sized plates and come in a pack of 8.

Hi, I'm Erica
I'm a mom of three young children. My faith has carried me through both the beautiful and the difficult times of my life, and I seek to create beautiful things that are tiny reminders of God's presence in our every day.
Be A Heart started with a phrase I learned while volunteering in Brazil: be a heart, nothing but a heart. I draw every design by hand, and I'm always thinking of ways to pass down the rich traditions of our Church to my children.
Thank you for being here.
