Our Father who is in heaven

Hello, my friends! I must keep this brief-ish, I have a date with my husband. We recently were given bunch of 1000pc puzzles! Fun!



How are you? Really? With everything that has been going on, I'm here to 'change the subject' for a little bit.



You are important.



I've been crocheting, painting, taking all the cloud-photos, sewing, you know me. Yesterday I bought some fabric online and I can't wait to for it to arrive. Just a few packs of pre-cut 5x5 (stunning) fabrics. Can. Not. Wait.



Oh, actually. I can wait. If I can't, then, I'm not sure what the last month has taught me. Right? Patience. Trust in Him. Peace. Thank you, Lord, for the PEACE you have given me so generously!



I was inspired to paint-out the Lord's Prayer, from Matthew 6:9-13. I felt the NASB had the easiest to understand version. So, here is me beginning to paint it on a sheet of 18x24" watercolor paper.



I was so pleased with it, that I got it printed as a 5x7 postcard and an 18x24" poster. I'm SO excited to share the images with you.



The first few orders of the 18x24" poster will also receive a small needle-minder, as they suddenly came out of the sewing machine, today.



I've been sewing masks! Not to be a hero, I don't need any praise. When a friend has asked me for them, I gladly help. The real mask-making heroes are the ones who make a ton and donate them. YOU guys and gals, are champions!



How many times have you heard of or used Zoom? Yeah. I've been doing that, too. It was overwhelming at first, but now, it's a 'new normal'... and soon, things will change again and we'll be moving on.



My 5x7 postcards and 18x24 posters are available for purchase, please have a look in my online shop, Room to Flourish. There is also the option for you to purchase a postcard for a friend - I'll write a note (of your words) for them and post it for you, direct to them.



Send encouragement! Let someone know you're thinking of them, everyone loves some happy mail, right? And, how sweet to send them the Lord's Prayer, too. The 5x7 size fits perfectly into a ready-made frame.



I miss you! Reply or comment, tell me a story about how you've been blessed this week?

A Reading Log Sounds So Boring

Image
Do you have a reading log? A place to record all the books you've read in a month/year/decade? When presented with the idea of a 'reading log', all I could think of was a page with columns, and spaces for titles, authors etc. In a word: boring. After seeing some actually-interesting reading logs online, I decided to draw my own. I know this isn't the first bookshelf reading log, and it very likely won't be the last. By all means, draw your own! If you click on the link below , you'll be taken to google docs where the 8.5x11" pdf is available for FREE. Holly May B of Room to Flourish Reading Log It fits 28 titles, and I imagine the top banner to say something like, "Holly's Reading Log 2022," or "Holly's Book List Jan-Feb," or "Books Read ___/___/___ to ___/___/___," if one needs less commitment. I see that hand. You can use this, your kids can use it, your Grandma can use it... Enjoy reading! Please note: This reading l

Practice makes bookmarks

Image
I just realized I had left last week's post titled as 'NEXT POST.' That was an oops, haha! I changed it to 'Beauty for Ashes' to align with the artwork I shared. I'll try to pay more attention from here on. Have you ever used a dip pen? You know the kind that you dip in ink and write all fancy? I wanted to practice with my dip pens... and you know what happened? I got bookmarks! Sure, 'practice makes perfect' or 'practice makes better', but in this case, practice makes bookmarks. I added crochet string and cut round corners on some of them. It was a fun creative outlet. Did you notice that I've been posting consistently for four weeks? Thanks for following along! Check out my latest shop updates at www.roomtoflourish.bigcartel.com I have reduced the price of the 2021 scripture calendar and I've uploaded a BUNCH of original art - organized by size, which should also make them easier to view based on budget. I would be honored if you had a

Will you ever look at clouds the same?

Image
  My son drew a picture in his spelling book... I noticed how the cloud looked like a heart with an extra 'bump' at the top. Immediately, I knew. When I look at the clouds, I can see our awesome Heavenly Father saying not just, "I love you," but instead, "I L O O O O O V E you!" Or, "I love love love you!" Each bump at the top of the cloud is another LOVE. How fitting for Valentine's Day coming up. My sock knitting is going along nicely - I have finished one and I'm about half-way through the next. I can't wait to wear them. If you've ever wanted to try sock knitting, and you can knit at a beginner level, then please do give it a try! We had a Ladies Night at our church last week and everyone was given a small bouquet to take home. Each piece had a meaning. There were two unusual flowers that caught my eye - one had rounded little ball-shaped petals. I watched over the next few days as each one opened up like a mini flower of its ow
