beatitude Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I'm having a clear-out and I've found a beautiful soft mantilla in creamy ivory lace that I bought as a spare and that I don't wear. It is a very nice one and cost the equivalent of $40 when I got it. If I can find a Catholic woman IRL who wants it, I will give it to her, but if not it's free to a good Phatmass home. Conditions: you must be a woman who doesn't already own a mantilla (I'm not sending it to someone who's got a whole collection) and who would definitely get some wear out of it. I don't want to be reimbursed for international shipping, but if the person who takes it would be willing to make a small donation to the emergency humanitarian appeal for Yemen (80% of the population there needs some sort of aid and the food shortages are terrible), that would be appreciated.

4LoveofJMJ Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 What a lovely offer! Could you post a picture of it? If no one here takes it, maybe you could donate it to your local church? There is a Catholic women's veiling page that I belong to that might be able to give it to someone who can't afford her own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NadaTeTurbe Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 We have a lot of mantilla at home, and we decided to keep only the historical one. I gave the others (along with a station of the cross that I couldn't use) to my local traditionnalist parish, and the priest was able to gave them to two news converts If you don't find a home for this mantilla, see if you can do the same !
