Happy Thanksgiving!!

I want to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving Time with you and your family.  No matter what any of us have gone thru, there is always something to be thankful for.  Think about it and even make a list and you will see all the wonderful blessings God has given to you. The fact that you are breathing is a blessing.  You are loved and thought of from God's own heart.  Happy Thanksgiving!

FALL TIME IS A SPECIAL TIME! When only the color orange will do. The leaves are colored and flying in the dancing wind. Everyone has to buy their pumpkins and we all crave pumpkin spice lattes, yeah. Enjoy every minute of it!

Violets Please

Large Pendants with a message

You see the pic of the canary being fed out of his owner's cereal bowl? You see God can feed us in different ways. He will go outside of the box. We expect it to happen a specific way. God is more creative than that.

Antique Looking Soldered Charms

Something about it, I love the look. Behind the front messages, are a page of an Italian Bible, which makes it more unique. I love Italy and all the ancient architecture. Knowing that is where Jesus went to and even Paul, makes it very special to me.

PS 91 for Army Mom's and Wives

I remember when my son in law Justin was in Iraq, even twice deployed. I hated it, but at the same time, felt helpless, until we realized we could hang on to God's word and really even find a very special Psalm which was Ps 91. It got us through. And at nite when we would take a walk, around the block and look at the moon, we would pray and know, he was looking at the same moon, if even a different time. No matter, it brought us closer. Prayer is powerful and it brought us closer to him.

Butterfly Fly!

This butterfly was much too pretty to stay cooped up!
Fun to recycle and reuse.  A tiny dragonfly out of brass is tagging along on a chain. Life must be enjoyed, for sure...

Spring is Sprung

 So refreshing to see the buds peaking out and the fragrant smells of herbs coming forth.  A blessing to have seasons which always bring good things.

I remember my good friend Sheri years ago, giving me a miniature yellow rosebush with tons of tiny yellow buds. I planted it and it lasted for many years and gave many a sweet bouquet. She told me that the color yellow, stood for friendship. And our friendship has continued on and on...

For Our Army Wives

If You can come up with some cool one word titles, that would inspire you, let me know. I know Ps. 91 is tops on the list...

Thoughts of You

I cut a page out of the bible, and this is it. From Ps. 139. It speaks of how much you are loved. Precious are the thoughts of God unto you. If you could count them, they are more in number than the grains of sand.  Would we dare believe this?

Purple Delfinium Flowers

Nothing like Spring flowers in a garden to cheer you. A Quote from W. Carlos Williams: "It is at the edge of a petal that love waits".

Shalom is Peace

 The Hebrew Language is fascinating. Probably because the whole Old Testament was written in Hebrew. This background pic is from a wonderful Japanese Maple tree we had in our front garden.

The back of this charm is in french, from a piece of an old bible, using the old testament.

Spring is Coming

Spring is in the air... or at least in the mind. Oh to have a garden with
flowers of all kinds, herbs, perennials, vegies, and the wonderous smells of it all. From the soil and the feel of it, to breaking off a piece of lavender or catnip and inhaling a good sniff. I even love the silly little bumblebees, but the not those aweful tomatoe hornworms.
These are little charm reminders of the memories of your garden of either what you've had or want to have in the future. We all love flowers...

Every Charm has a message

I had a few pics from diff countries where the women are used to carrying heavy loads. We in the US have no idea. We carry a laundry basket downstairs and we're out of breath!
Imagine carrying buckets of water every single day. Felt it was fitting to put this scripture with this pic. Sometimes emotionally, we are carrying such unnecessary baggage, that really, we were not made to carry. We were made to cast our cares on the one who cares, and can carry the load, who already has carried every load we will ever have! Jesus...

Hearts of Love/Napkin Holder

A Red kitchen is so inspiring. Guess what color mine is? Red of course!

If you add hearts, voila! Instant passion...

Purpose

You have a purpose. Your life means something.  Make each day count. When you wake up in the morning, know you are loved,  go and enjoy your day and see the good in each day.  Just as there is bad and negative in this world, there is good. Don't miss the little miracles that God does each day. Be thankful...

Friends

 Buddies, Best friends, amigos...  A good reminder to us that we need each other. It's not good to be alone. Remember your friends and value them highly...
