Elegant Tea

Simple Tea

 

Even the most modest tea pot and cup,

served with a lace table cloth,

makes it fit for a Queen.

 

The simple but elegant!

 

Never under estimate a cup of tea.

 

Take time and be still.

 

Blessings, Roxy

 



Recycled Mittens

Mitten Weather

I was just going through some of my favorites,

 and I found some great ideas on recycled mittens.

  We all know very cold days and snow are ahead for some of us.

We really are praying for snow as we have

been in a terrible drought.

We have been so busy doing some home make-overs, that

it has been a challenge to find time to do anything else.

I love to sew and to craft and to make things lovely

for my home and family.

There are so many ideas on the web for making mittens from old sweaters!

Sanding and priming .
See my new stove?
This is what started the make-over:)

I had my drawer fronts refaced,
what a difference it made.

My sweet grandson!
I painted the island a completely
different color.

See my chicken's?
I love the wains coat we glued in the center
of each cabinet.

The brick board added the cozy
touch it needed.
See the red top rail?
 

See my antique oatmeal canister?

My long counter top.
Love the brick board.

My chandelier is my most favorite touch!

My heart has been so full of His love and grace!

 

This the most beautiful kitchen I

have ever had!

 

I feel blessed beyond

words!

Whistle While You Work

I really love to iron!

 

Ok, your all thinking this girl needs to get a life!!

 

I like to get all the tops and bottoms,

that I may be wearing soon.

Also, I iron my aprons!

I like them to be clean and fresh and (not wrinkled)

 

And I put up my ironing board in the kitchen,

it is usually up in my/spare room/

sewing room/ect.

 

But I do enjoy being in the heart of my home.

I can listen to worship music, or a teaching tape.

Also maybe get a post started:)

And to watch what I may have cooking on the stove.

 

My sister can- not believe that I love to iron.

I told her one day maybe,

it's the only thing I can control

wrinkles!

 

We must be diligent,

and focus on what is really important!

Our time with the Lord

Honoring and respecting our Husbands!

Making our houses a Home...

 

I am so blessed!

I love to be a part of this,

amazing community of Bloggers.

Honoring Others

 

Showing Honor

 

I was just thinking how fast the holidays

are approaching, and to realize that another

year has gone by.

 

This is a picture of a surprise lunch

Birthday party given to me

last November.

 

I was turning 55 years young.

So that means in a matter of weeks I will be turning 56.

 

So what I have been thinking about

all this last year was the kindness,

and love, and I honor that was

shown to me!

 

It still brings tears to my eyes,

and a lump in my throat.

 

I believe in showing honor to those God,

has given us :

Family, and friends,

mentors, and Pastors.

 

We can show honor in so many different ways.

As you bless others, you yourself

will be blessed.

 

Maybe we can start now asking the Lord

for ways that we can show honor to others.

This holiday season could be a time to

really let others know what they have

meant to you.

 

Be devoted to one another in brotherly love.

Honor one another above yourselves.

Romans 12:10
