Sharing is Beautiful

I've been absent in blog land this past week.  If you're a Facebook friend, you know that I've been ill, stressed, and off my game.  A few days ago, everything came to a head.  I was in bed for a day and a half.



The above bouquet was brought to me by my friends Roger and Rhonda.  It was one in a series of gestures,  prayers, support, and encouragement, that flooded in the past few days.

My friend Sharon, whose home I shared HERE, came by.  She brought prayers, hugs, and food.

My friend Nancy, a long distance blog land/FB friend, was there for me as well.  She is one of the few blog land friends I've had long phone conversations with.

I received so many words of encouragement on FB, I found it difficult to keep from tearing up constantly.  I'm not the type to share EVERY aspect of my life.  I only do that with a chosen few.  The friends I've opened up to have been a true blessing.

I'm making the journey back to a part of my life that I honestly enjoy.  Creating, and sharing with all of you.  I'm feeling better, stronger, and very grateful.  This morning I felt the urge to see what some of you were up to.  Guess what I saw on my sidebar?


No, this is not my creation.  My friend Betsy at My Salvaged Treasures transferred the angel image I'm sharing on Etsy onto marble.  I used different images when I shared this tutorial.   Hmmmmm, why didn't I use the angel. lol

It always brightens my day to be considered an inspiration.  My decision to share images as well as tutorials has been a good one.  Here's another project from an Etsy customer, and blog land friend.  Sumaya at  Evocative Vintage used script I shared to embellish a mirror.


Sharing is beautiful.

See ya soon.
