The Living Room Gallery Wall is Up

Pin It

Finally:0)

Using “Destiny’s Method of Randomness” I muscled through this one and got my gallery wall up and finished! I don’t know how many hours I spent pondering  bout how I should arrange this wall, what photos to display, what objects to put where. Up until yesterday it was one big headache. So I finally just went with it. My poor wall got so nailed up:0)

Here is the wall before…

Patience is not my best character trait( ha) and perfection seems to be impossible to reach:0) So I didn’t cut out pretty little templates. Even if I did, I think I would have edited just as much. So to start off this wall I laid out a beginning format on the floor and nailed as I went. If your going to be lazy like me and use this method, make sure you have a small tube of nail hole filler and a paint pen:0) lol. It really wasn’t that bad:0)

I used my silhouette machine to cut out an Arizona silhouette..a play on the I Heart State art that’s out there.

I used different woods and tried to repeat it at least once across the scheme so it would flow. Remember those barn wood frames! I love them!

Family Gallery Wall {Dayspring Urban Soul }

Pin It

A few weeks ago I added some Urban Soul Plaques to our family gallery wall. You know the wall that’s growing and growing with no pictures:0)

I won a gift card to Dayspring from my girl Andrea from WorleyHouseBlog! I knew I wanted these two plaques…

“Where you go I go”  by Chris Tomlin is one of my favorite FAVORITE songs. So every time I look at it, this plays in my head:0)

It’s even cuter when you have a three year old boy singing along the best he can:0)

Gentle reminders around the house that cheer US on and remind ME to not grow weary of doing good!

Lately I’ve been struggling with my confidence! Unfortunately there is a little voice in my head saying your not good enough! gaaaa. I thought I got rid of that voice a long time ago!:0)

But ultimately there is thought that wins and what I hear him saying to me is, “ Your not good enough for who? The people around you? YES of course not! Your weren’t made to be good enough for man,but good enough for ME! I’m the one who made you. Your confidence shouldn’t come from your own ability, or set of skills, or any talent that you have.  It should come from the fulfillment, the peace and joy that a simple life following me, gives you.It should come from the promises I have given to you.  Remind your self who your working for and be still when you need to be still.”

I always find comfort in him. I need to trust that his plans are better than mine. Mine plans would be hiding away, being shy, being to afraid to try something new…lol. BUT, I can see him pulling me towards some GREAT things but I’m just to scared to say yes!! To scared that it might not go well or I might let some people down. I gotta lot of praying to do:0)
