Usually, as you know,  we like to take a minute to share what we've been up to, with that said, as most of you know, I am still on the hunt for my new place, I put in some applications and got some good feedback, so please keep your prayers coming! (I'm T minus 24 days and packing like crazy!)

What to do Weekends #126

Happy Thursday Evening, All, & Welcome to the What to do Weekends Party! We hope you've had a wonderful and creative week!!

Linda and I each feature one of our own picks as a Bonus, we thought we'd like to start out with that!!
My Bonus feature for this week belongs to The Crafty Blog Stalker for their great tutorial on making this
Beautiful Patriotic Wreath

Now, that I've shared my bonus feature, I'd love to check in with you all and keep you up to date on what's going on with Linda and myself.

This IS What I Am Doing!

My search for a new place to call home continues. Thank you all for your prayers and kind words!  I have woken up, to this song playing in my head, more times than I can tell you.  So, I am doing as it says and Fixing my eyes on the only One, who knows all and has planned every twist and turn in my life for His Good. 

 I truly know with all my heart that He has a divine plan for me, and will let me know when the time is right.  Until then, I am using the brain, He blessed me with, and looking at and trying every possible lead. Nothing yet. 

His timing is perfect, not mine. :) 

I will keep you posted. If I was not so set in my ways, I would declare what a wonderful adventure!

So, I am trying to remind myself, daily, (no matter how uncomfortable) that this IS an incredible opportunity for growth and time to draw closer to Him. Life has taught me, in hindsight, that every trial has a reason, and that I am better and stronger after going through each and every one!

Many Blessings to you all, today, my friends!

What to do Weekends #125

Happy Thursday Evening, All, & Welcome to the What to do Weekends Party! We hope you'be had a wonderful and creative week!!

We've been talking, and decided to do things a little different. Since Linda and I each feature one of our own picks as a Bonus, we thought we'd like to start out with that!!

So, Since you are here, Me first!! 

My Bonus feature for this week had to be Bonnie's How to Make a Lavender Wreath!! I love lavender and have made a few of these over the years to hang in my bedroom, but Bonnie has an awesome tutorial to show you how!

Time for a New Adventure!

I have some news that I want to share with you today.

I have been abundantly Blessed for the past seven and a half years with this beautiful little two bedroom house that I have come to call home.  For those of you that have been following along with Shoestring Elegance, since I began just a few years ago, you have all seen, through each and every project or rose from my garden, how much I have enjoyed my house and living here, though every single picture, I have shared with you.(which also warms my heart to know those memories are captured, here!)
