I'm on a Roll Now!

Ever have one of those really bad, sick of it all, wanna give up days? Then catch something in the corner of your eye, that brings it all back into perspective. Like a photo of that sweet little one that's counting on you, at the end of the day. Or your husband or wife that's trying just as hard for you as you are for them. Or maybe it's a word of scripture, where God tells us to "Fear not for I am with you". And then you catch your breath and give it one more try.

That's what I love about these little pendants. They are little messages of hope and love. 
There is so much I can do with them.  Words, Scripture, Initials, Photos, Art.  And just wait till you see what I have to show you tomorrow!

I love turning them into all sorts of different things for hanging around our little spaces in life where we need that inspiration. I keep getting these ideas in my head to make them to suit different styles, and age groups, occasions and both genders.
Not to mention, they hit right at the heart of what I love. Creating things that are happy and make others happy. Bringing people together and sharing what we love.  The people, the pets, the words, the scripture and images that just keep us going. 

I want to create things that identify and show the world, who we are and what we love! I know, that's asking a lot from a little 1" square pendant. But, we need a little inspiration where ever we can get it.

So, tune in tomorrow and see what I've come up with next! Hope it will move and inspire you too!

In the meantime, here are just a few fun and beautiful images that may identify a little bit of you.

-Blessings to all,
Kim

                                                                                              

Who is person and What's She Done Now?

Good Thursday Morning!

Just wanna share....

When it comes to blogs, I've always been a little concerned as to whether anyone is really interested in my personal life. After all, most I think most of the time, my crazy life is probably like other people's. Just different types of crazy. But then I've read quite a bit about getting to know someone this way can benefit readers. The same as it does when I read someone elses blog. When I read about the struggles and triumphs of other people, good or bad news, it helps me relate. Either way, it makes feel more connected. And one thing I think we all may have in common, is the good feelings it can bring to discover that we are not alone.

 Well, there are two things I want to tell my readers today. I've been married to the most wonderful man on earth for 35 years now. And I'm betting you all feel the same as I do about your spouse. When they suffer, you suffer for them :( Well, that's where I find he and I, right now. My husband is a business owner. And if you are one or know one, you probably know, that it rarely brings the independant glory most people believe it does. It's a huge responsibility! For your business and it's employees. And the very nature of it, leaves you put yourself...dead last in most every situation. That's where my husband is right now. He's been away at work for almost 2 weeks. It will soon be longer than we've every been apart. But all I can think about that is, how is he holding up. All I can do right now is pray for God to watch over him and keep a vigil here at home.

In the meantime, I have to keep myself busy, so I won't worry so much. And right now, The Lord has lead me to work on something requested of me by my darling Aunt, who is greiving over the lose of her child. My cousin lost her battle with Cancer last week. And my heart is broken, not only for loosing such a fine person, whom I was just beginning to know again, but also broken for my aunt and her family.

However, God's blessings have shown me, there is one thing I can do, that she has asked of me. And that's to organize a Family Reunion. I'm sure I  don't have to tell you, that little project can get very involved. So, I'll be working on that for the next 6 months, along with my Etsy and craft treasures.
I am grateful for lots to keep me busy.

By sharing a little of my life with you day to day,  I really hope to gain is some insight from my readers about it all. From other business owners and their spouses who wait for them and try to help them, to others who have worked on Family Reunions before. People who can relate to those types of things and the thoughts of those who can offer me some much needed perspective.

Tomorrow I'll share my progress of the reunion plans, as well as my husband's heroic efforts for his business and the people he cares about. And add to that the story of the complete chaos of this past week to get you started on my day to day life around here. And how at the end of the day, prayer and faith in God and each other is how we made it... or not!

For now here is my latest creation you'll soon find in my Etsy shop..www.imaginephotocrafts.etsy.com

Blessings to all,
Kim
