I have enjoyed reading your recent posts on decorating your home. I really struggle internally with how much the Lord has blessed me with (which might not look like much to others but it is to me) and how there are people dying all over the world because they don’t have basic necessities and education. I know you care very much about the poor so I’m sure you understand those feelings. Well, after reading the recent posts I was even more wanting to decorate my earthly home to celebrate Fall and all God’s gracious gifts. I prayed yesterday that the Lord would give me a cornicopia and I went garage saleing today and purchased one for a dollar! What a blessing! I know that the Lord sees our hearts and I think it delights Him to give us good gifts when our hearts are set on pleasing Him. For if we as parents desire to give good gifts to our children how much more our heavenly father? So you ladies don’t forget garage sales when it comes to decorating!!! God bless!

Great insights. Indulging in some form of creative project is always a great de-stresser for me.

We are a military family and have moved 5 times in less then 4 years and decorating a home makes a world of difference. I make every effort each place we live is filled with photos of all our family and friends. The best tip I have is to always be on the look out for great curtain deals, inexpensive artwork, and live plants. Live plants are great because you doing cuttings and more pots to either give away or fill your home even more.

Having a home that cozy and comfortable does promote good conversation and time to build lasting friendships.

Ooh, I’m really looking forward to some home-decorating posts this week. I am naturally NOT a decorator, and I have really had to learn my way through this by getting ideas from others. I’m also learning that I don’t have to wait until I have lots of money to make my home lovely and inviting.

Can’t wait to see your kids’ room too!

It’s funny because I was just thinking about this the other day. As the season has changed, I have started to get out my fall decorations. This consists of many things, but my favorite are the fall leaves on my mantle with orange lights. It gives our dining room such a cozy glow. It makes me feel warm and happy. I only hope it does the same for my children and husband.

Very insightful. I just finished redecorating my son’s room, and was amazed at the joy I found when the creative projects in my mind came to fruition. Th best part is that he, my son, loves them too. He is so proud of the projects mommy made for him and the ones that he helped to make.
