Since Mother Teresa is a relatively new Saint (today is actually the 2 year Anniversary of her canonization!!!) we wanted to give you some ideas of ways you could celebrate such a beautiful Saint on her September 5th Feast Day!
1) FEAST
On Feast Days we think it's important to .. well.. feast. I mean, it's in the name.
In honor of St. Teresa of Calcutta, we'll be making some of our favorite Indian food:

For dessert we're going to have simple cupcakes with white frosting and blue sprinkles in honor of Mother Teresa's signature colors.
2) DECORATE
Here's a super simple way to make a table look Mother Teresa themed:
Grab any white candle and wrap our free candle wrap printable around the bottom, tape it and you're done!
