And it also inspired me to be creative on my own. As I just blogged about, our friends Tiffany and Phil just moved away. They worked in the youth group with us, and we wanted to give them something to remember all of us by. I thought one of those photo boards that you hang on the wall would be cool, but I could NOT find one in colors that would match her spare bedroom. So the thought came to me--why not make it myself?! If any of you know me, this is probably rather amusing to you right now. I do not have a shred of artistic talent and to make matters worse cannot sew more than a button (and even that is questionable!). So this task did not seem do-able but I decided to try. Some nice old lady in the Walmart craft department helped me gather my supplies and armed with me with suggestions. Although I would not be able to sell it at a craft fair or anything, I was rather proud of the outcome. Just imagine how much better it would have looked if I hadn't slapped it together in a matter of 2 hours!!!
