January .. A time for the Lovely..

Hello my dears..

A little different post tonight..

A few pics from my Pinterest boards..

I was wondering if you would like to tell me which ones spoke to you the most ...

January is such a great time to do things that we usually may not have time for...

Our hearts are looking at empty calender pages and we would like to fill them with lovely things..

In the Bible in the book of Philippians 4:6-8

tells us not to be anxious about anything but to take our cares to the Lord and He will give us His peace but also to think about things that are lovely and such.

.New International Version (NIV)

6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

So..

with that in mind I am trying to fill my mind with the lovely..

I thought you might like to join me ..

The above photos are a few that fill my heart with peace and gives me creative inspiration..

Perhaps you would like to comment and even send me a link or two to pics that inspire you...

Or if you have a blog you would like to do a similar post and link back here.. (just an idea)

You can just copy and paste your link to your comment or just tell me what gives you a sense of the lovely..

In my pics I have tried to select the attainable..

Lovely rooms, little projects, simple pleasures and as always the Word of God..

There are lots of things on Pinterest or the internet that inspire but there is no reality if you know what I mean..

A lot of it would never come near our budget so I am trying to be real and find doable projects and such...

OK?
