it's not your graven images that are bad. It's the bowing down to them that's bad.
Try some reading comprehension lessons. Your apparent inability to accurately read the posts in this thread are no different than those for reading Scripture.
Ignore this one:
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earthBut not this one:
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them
Now, she keeps them by her bedside on some low shelves and has a pillow there where she kneels and prays every evening, do you in all honesty think she is bowing down before graven images and if not, why not? I don't see the difference in her remembering various Bible stories by looking at her collection and someone else recalling various Bible stories by kneeling in front of a much better likeness of a Saint, of Mary, or of Jesus. She finds those little things a comfort that help here get in a reverent frame of mind, that's what she says about them.
How about a crucifix? What about the dozens of homes I've been in back when I was a teenager where the folks who worked at the cotton mill almost always had a picture of Jesus in the living room with the family Bible on a small table in front of it. It was their prayer table and they were anything but Catholic, so were they worshiping idols and graven images?
