I have a few projects to make our master bedroom a space of peace and rest for us. I asked Ben to cut me down a few pallet boards to make a back drop for my centerpiece turned wall decor. I love the way that they turned out!
Stay tuned for the whole room and cleaner spaces!
We sold our previous headboards that Ben made and found this door from early 1900's to use. I am so very excited to see what Ben comes up with to make my vision come to life.
I love that it has 2 different sides that we can use. The character in the wood makes me wonder what stories it has to tell!
I have a love/hate relationship with our dark front porch. It seriously hardly gets any sunlight which is depressing to me. I love planting in the summer and trying not to kill my plants until fall. Anyway I digress, I had an itch to be creative and a front porch that needed TLC.
So on this rainy, cold day, I stopped at our local Habitat for Hummanity and found this half door for $8. I stopped at Michaels for the letters to spell welcome and the bless our nest sign. All those supplies came in at slightly underived $30. I made the hydrangea wreath about 5 years ago and have used it in so many different places! I have a ton of burlap so I used some of it for the letters. (I wanted to be able to change everything out as I wished.)
Here are the final results. More of the front porch once it is warm enough for plants!
The breakfast nook. The kids table. Life giving table.
This area is where we eat breakfast together 5 to 6 days a week. Lunch 2 times a week. Supper 5 nights a week.
We do our family meetings there.
Talk about the days highs and lows.
We are silly and serious here.
We do life together here.
I always thought that setting the mood for my family was such an unattainable goal. But I was trying to do it in my own strength and in my own way.
I am so thankful for ladies in multiple bible studies that I have been blessed to attend over the past decade. They have poured into me, encouraged me, and held me accountable.
While it is not perfect, I am thankful that each new day brings new chances to work towards it.
We started this study today and I cannot wait to see what it brings!
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9
