Moments of Grace

Gratitude Journal . Week #13

just a FEW of the things i am grateful for this week...

that i found several totally cute striped sweaters, and used it to make a batch of my 

Sweet Sweater Pumpkins for my nieces, nephew, and precious grandsons.

these are VIPs (Very Impressive Pumpkins) 

for some VIP (Very Important Precious ones) kids

that a three dollar bouquet can cheer up a room

and put a smile on my mom's face after a hard day

using my grandma's beloved Jewel Tea cookware as fall decor in mom's house...

every time we look at these bowls, we think of grandma. 

the pitcher she gave me may still be in storage in Washington, but i can enjoy these

having my very own Sweet Sweater Pumpkins appear in shops and shows again...

this time it's not ME selling them, but some wonderfully creative, supportive dealers and retailers.

i thank God for each and every one of them!

and....

 miss Kymberley sells my pumpkins at her lovely store, 'A Beautiful Mess'

and will be be selling them at the Remnants of the Past show

in San Luis Obispo, CA in October!

(just LOOK at her booth at the summer show last june!)

and i am going to be there to work her booth with her!

yep, i get to be part of the show again. i've missed that world, i truly have.

God works in mysterious ways, my friends...

visiting a local garden center and seeing their creativity in action everywhere.

this visual team is absolutely one of the best in the world!

the opportunity to FINALLY afford the time and money to take this AMAZING e-course

from the perpetually encouraging and inspiring Kelly Rae Roberts!

 i am also grateful for God's answers to my prayer to let me work as a paid writer.

several projects on my desk and in the works offer exactly that....

I am counting my blessings!
