Here's a little spotlight on one more creative element in our nest.
A post showing something I've actually made/stitched/painted... (for those who may fear this blog has lost all creative inspiration and plunged deep into pregnancy/motherhood posts)!
See, up there... that simple tapestry above the door in our entryway.
A quick project I did in the past - a theme, a prayer, for our home.
An excerpt from a beautiful book of prayers called The Valley of Vision:
"Fill the garden of my soul with the wind of love, that the aroma of the Christian life may be wafted to others; then come and gather fruits to thy glory.
So shall I fulfil the great end of my being - to glorify Thee and be a blessing to man."
This prayer sums up the desire of our hearts.
It also makes a great theme for our home... we want to use our home, our hearts, and our hands to glorify God and to bless others.
Just a few scraps of stitched fabric.
An assortment of buttons and strokes of paint.
A tattered canvas.
But if these walls were words, I hope they would sing a sweet and simple song of love to all who enter.

Do you like posting themes/verses/inspirations?
For readers who have been around here a long time.. you may recall the other tapestry I made for the three goals/rhythms of our nest.
I enjoy simple, creative ways to reflect our heart in our home.
I'd love to hear what you hang your heart on too...
Creatively yours,
Mel ;o)
