Balancing the Good Things in Life

I love decorating with picture frames! I have a large collection of mostly 8×10 and 5×7 size picture frames. I use them around our house not only to display photos, but also seasonal decor, printable Bible verses, inspirational quotes, or subway art for the changing seasons and holidays. My collection includes some plain black and white frames, simple […]

I have an idea notebook where I jot down verses that make me think of a season or special celebration. Months ago I scribbled this verse in the “fall/Thanksgiving” section of my notes. As soon as […]

I love creating printable artwork to display in our home. It’s a simple, inexpensive way to keep the decor fresh, and it’s takes only minutes to update and change with the seasons. This week I am putting away our spring decorations that are specific to Easter and replacing them with more general spring decor. I created a free […]
What better way to start any day than with this reminder from God’s word? This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. ~Psalm 118:24 I currently have this print framed and displayed in our entryway. It’s the first thing people see when they come into our […]
At the beginning of each new season it it SO tempting to go shopping and pick up shiny, new, pretty things to decorate my home. They are everywhere!
