Of course, I just wanted to buy everything. But I used incredible restraint and only got a couple of things. I got this flower pot which is hand thrown (they also had demonstrations) and I just love it. I put fabric in it instead of flowers (big surprise!)

I get so inspired when I am surrounded by beauty- it reminds me that God is the ultimate Creator, and it makes me want to create in my own little way. In using our creative gifts, we truly honor and give glory to Him.
O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
You have set Your glory
above the heavens...
When I consider Your heavens,
the work of Your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which You have set in place,
What is man that You are mindful of him,
the son of man that You care for him?
You made him ruler over the works of Your hands;
You put everything under his feet:
All flocks and herds,
and the beasts of the field,
the birds of the air,
and the fish of the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
Psalm 8
