Holy water receptacles/fonts?

[rcandap]

I’ve never kept holy water in the home, but I want to start. I bought a small font and also two small bottles. Silly question, but do these need to be blessed? And what if I use a larger receptacle to bring holy water home from church–should I have that blessed, too?

I wouldn’t say “need”, but it’s not a bad idea. I had both of mine blessed (one at the front door and one at the back). I haven’t had the bottle I use to transport the water blessed. It never hurts to have religious items blessed!
