I Got Creative!

So I know its ending up that I am posting about once a month, and with summer right around the corner Im not sure if it will increase or not, but we can be hopeful right?! :)

Since the last time I posted I have kept quite busy. I decided to tackle the use of my sewing machine again and created a nice Bible cover for my own personal Bible. I now have others requesting I make them one too! So if interested send me the dimensions of your Bible and I'll be happy to make you one :) Below are pictures of what I used and how it turned out. I hope to get better at taking pics of the step by step stuff so you can follow along a bit better!





I have also kept busy (since my last post) with loads of yard work and gardening. I wish I had pictures but Im afraid I dont. I dug up a plot in our yard just outside my bedroom, back door :) Im hoping something grows, but it may have to wait until next year. It was a last minute decision to attempt one this year and I think it might have been just a little too last minute to get anything of any consequence. But I was lucky enough to help my aunt and uncle (and my cousins) with their garden this year, and with my visits up north to their farm this summer Im hoping to enjoy their garden if mine chooses not to take off. After all, its all part of the learning process ;) As for the rest of the yard I have big plans. It needs a big remodel and Im hoping little by little this summer it will come together :) Some new sod in places, a hammock, a fire pit, and nice looking flowers and shrubs. The goal is to have friends and family over to enjoy BBQs during the summer evenings :)

Amongst Sewing, yard work, and gardening I have also started assisting a fellow photographer in covering weddings. As of right now, I have one scheduled for at least once a month up through September. I'm looking at them as practice runs, getting ready for my own booking in September for my friend Kerry's wedding in the mid-west! I will try to post some photos from each shoot, hopefully showing my improvement along the way! Below is a wedding we shot this past Saturday. I hope you like :) I would love your thoughts on them so please share!















So far my summer schedule is filling up fast with lots of opportunities. My goal is to post something about as much of it as I can! Until next time!

God Bless!
