    Klik op de afbeelding om de link te volgen The picture: A Russian lady painted the ceiling and walls of my little guesthouse and I am thrilled with the end result.  It gave the room a fairytale atmosphere.

    We had a 29 degree day yesterday.  Praise the Lord.

    Our recently pruned apricot tree is blossoming and there is a cute little woodpecker diligently at work digging his hole in our big old chopped down tree trunk.  Right on top.

    Have a wonderful day and remember that God is bigger than any problem you are currently experiencing.

    Remember if God is blessing us we must bless others. It's the Biblical principal of sowing and reaping.  I see the amazing results in my little craft business.

    If you are experiencing the same please let me know via my gastenboek.  THANKS

    Praise the Lord! Winter in South Africa is coming to an end.  Our daily temperatures  go up to 21 degrees Celcius. 
    Go check out Oprah.com and specifically Dr. Oz's health tips.  I find them so practical.

    I'm just busy with my own research on market values.  If any of you find the time, please let me know in my guest book what you think will be a reasonable amount in Euro to pay for this necklace that I've made.  I used genuine Swarovski stones.  It is 18 inches long.

    Thank you and have a glorious day in the presence of the Lord.  Be creative and bless others with your gifts and talents.

    There is no sense in
    having this blog if
    I can't help people.
    I really want to make
    a diffenrence in this
    world.
    Doesn't matter how
    small or big my
    contributions will
    be, I know that
    I have to touch
    other people's
    life's, because I
    am serving a living
    God. 

    Remember:
    God is not a pie
    in the skie for
    the day when you
    die...

    As a believer in Jesus
    Christ I know that we
    have to have a religion
    that is practical.

    God is practical.

    If you have the blues
    today, get yourself a
    Bible and start reading
    brother, sister.  The word
    of God is powerful. There
    is power in the word.

    Jesus is alive! I talk to Him,
    He talks to me.  Sometimes
    through His word, sometimes
    through people, sometimes
    through signs, dreams.

    I challenge you to have a
    personal relationship with
    the one and only God.

    Please let me know in my Guest
    Book if you believe this.


    See, this is exactly how the Holy
    Spirit works. 

    I actually wanted to ask your
    reactions on a "remedy", and
    then I felt in my heart I had to
    share the information above.


    God has a purpose and a
    plan for our lives. We just need
    to be obedient.

    Maybe he spoke to you.
    Listen to His voice and let
    Him direct you. You will never
    regret it!!!!!!!!!!


    Please let me know via the
    Guest Book if you have
    used Cayenne Pepper
    as a "cure" for a sore throat.

    I am interested in natural
    cures that really work!!

    Be blessed!
    Crafty


    PS

    I have now included a picture
    of me kissing my first born.

    Klik op de afbeelding om de link te volgen One of the Mother's day cards that I made. 

    This is a very cold day in South Africa. 15 Degrees celcius!!!! 

    Now winter is really starting to evolve... 

    I was spoilt with breakfast in bed and gifts from my

    three men on Mom's day. How blessed am I!

    Read Proverbs 31 to get a good description of a Spirit

    filled mom.

    I got this special thought in Afrikaans from one
    of my clients:

    Ek't 'n tuintjie geplant waar

    'Dankies' weelderig groei.

    Waar 'Kan en help'
    en 'Kom tog weer'
    en 'Ag dis niks nie'
    bloei.

    Bossies 'Bly om jou te sien',
    boompies 'Laat my toe'
    en rye 'Sit maar'.

    'Ekskuus' groei geil
    en 'Laggies' kol op kol.

    Daar's plate en plate
    'Asselief' en
    'Soentjies'...
    beddings vol...

    As hul vra hoekom
    daar soveel mooi goed groei,
    se ek
    dis omdat daar 'n
    JESUS stroompie vloei

    ('n Ruiker uit my tuintjie
    aan jou vandag!!)

    Klik op de afbeelding om de link te volgen

    We moved into a very old, broken down, extremely
    neglected house, which we are busy revamping.  It takes
    a lot of energy and effort to go DIY, but room by room we are
    making progress. (Thank God!).

    Whenever I find a free moment I make necklaces or crosses.
    I've sold quite a few Swarovski crosses and beads.  Try to keep
    my prices down and are so greatful for the regular customers.
    My hobby has now become a second income and a necessity
    for sanity...

    Thank you for signing my guest book (the few that did).

    All that I want to share for now is that God created us to have a free will.  You and I can choose to smile, choose to be friendly and choose to develop our talents and bless creation with that. 

    I asked the Lord to show me where I must go with my life after having two babies close together.  Didn't feel like teaching any more.

    And it all started out with cardmaking six years ago...

    My mom showed me a few techniques and off I went... Very shy... to our local home industry. 

    When my first card was sold, some more followed and then I started doing decoupage...

    More to follow on this topic.

    oops:Didn't keep my commitment.  But here is my update - rather late than never.  Autumn is peeping here in South Africa. 
    Because my mother tongue is Afrikaans I understand the site's origin a little - Afrikaans was derived from Dutch.

    Therefore I was in shock when I realised this was actually a blog for the elderly. I am interested to know the age of you who reads this blog. Feel  free to reply.

    Very busy with my grade 0  and 1 kiddies. They are a busy joy.God is really doing great things in and through their small lifes. My husband is climbing the corporate ladder and is performing very well at his job.  We praise God for that!.  He and kids went to 'n big rugby match yesterday afternoon (they know by now to count me out... rugby is not one of my passions).  By the way my husband helped out with the Dendermondse rugby club when he was still a teacher...

    My mom and dad had their 40th wedding anniversary recently.  It was quite a festivity!  I ( with the help of my husband) created a slide show "surprise" for the occasion.  Was great fun and took me  54 hours to create.  Inserted pictures from their wedding day, youth, etc.; added sound effects which caused a few good laughs.

    I will include the poem that I write for my parents.  Take note - I have full copyright!! No publishing without my permission thanks.  The lucky ones that know Flemish and Dutch might understand some of it.

    ROBYNE
     
    God gee die rooi
    vir die robyn
    Sy son sal
    onwillekeurig deur die
    steen se glorie skyn
    en die aanslae se
    dofheid laat verdwyn
    Want
     deur die jare
    leer ons fyn kyk
    gelowig praat.
    -Skerp geslyp.
    Want dis nooit
    te laat
     om ‘n spatsel wynrooi
    te besef
    en te weet dis die Meester
    se reliëf
    wat robyne vorm
    en my en jou ‘n
    pad saam gee.
    Dis ENORM!

    Klik op de afbeelding om de link te volgen As you know by now, I am a housewife somewhere in Africa...I am
    blessed with a fabulous husband and two lovely kids (my big bubble and my small bubbles...)

    I was a teacher but became a stay-at-home mom when the eldest was born a few years ago.

    Then "project sanity" as I call it, started.  God blessed me with so may ideas and I just want to share pictures of simple  things I make (and sometines sell).

    Because I do laundry, drive the kids to school and have to do all those mom-wife-woman things, I will only be able to log on to my blog when I have me-time.

    Any uplifting comments and blessings are welcome, otherwise silence is golden.

    Once a month I will update and share a blessing.

    Matthew 6:26 - Look at the birds of the air...Are you not of more value than they? (NKJ version, 1982).

    ....Poverty of purpose is far worse than poverty of purse!

    Be blessed!
    Crafty

    PS Above you can see an example of the jewelry that I make.  It made such a lovely composition when I used small broken glass beads and glued it onto the cross.  And that's exactly what God does.  He takes a normal broken being like me and is actively and lovingly involved in my life to bring out His glory and splendour!!
