My Crafty Phase

Since moving into a house I have had quite the crafty homemaking bug.  Im sure this is just a phase I am going through, but I am okay with that.



My first project was to get a dresser. I found an old dresser that looked like it was probably from the 60s. I sanded that junk, put a fresh coat of paint on it, and some new knobs. Of course no   dresser is complete without a picture of John Calvin.





My new obsession is making apple butter. Its super easy and you can make the cans so cute!



I love trips to the farmers market for the sole purpose of looking at flowers. I bought some this time. I think it is totally acceptable to buy flowers for yourself.



Now on to what I have been reading.

"But as for me, I will look to the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.
Micah 7:7


I have been going back to this verse over and over this week. It has been a great comfort and encouragement. Sometimes I think "What is going on in my life?!?!"  And then I remember that the Lord already knows what is going to happen. I just have to wait on Him.  He hears me, He loves me, and He is working it out for my good and His glory.  He will be my great comfort. 
As a famous man once said "He's got this thing rigged!"
