Moss Green + Turquoise

Hello! It’s Modest Monday once more. Today I’ll be sharing a casual outfit. I wore this a few weeks ago, and though you can’t tell in the photos, it was way too cold to be wearing short sleeves and no jacket. But, the flowers made such a nice background, I was okay with freezing for a little while. 😉 For…

A Lesson in Patience

Hello! Today I’ll be sharing what I’ve recently been working on in the area of artistic pursuits. The project: What is that, you ask? This, very detailed, “paint-by-number”. (I don’t really like calling it that, since it sounds like I’m working on a little kid’s coloring sheet…but it is technically a “paint-by-number”) Anyway, I’ve worked on this painting for many…

On the Wide Frontier

Hello again! I hope you’re looking forward to finding new books to read! About the books: Today, I’m sharing this trilogy. In a lot of ways, it reminds me of this series.

A Few Odds-n-Ends

Please excuse the very wrinkled button-down on the far left… Anyway, these shirts have been sitting in my sewing pile, waiting patiently to be fixed. None of them were beyond repair, but instead were…

Stories of two young women

Hello! It’s the day I’ve set aside for sharing books I’ve read and enjoyed. Let’s get started, shall we? I’ll begin with this one. Stepping Heavenward is a book about a young woman named Katherine Mortimer. It’s written in the form of diary entries and in some cases, letters, which makes for an interesting reading experience. The story begins just…

Dark Plum + Sandals

Hello. How is your Monday going so far? This is an outfit I wore to church a few Sundays ago. I have to admit,I wasn’t feeling very inspired that Saturday night when I was trying to find an outfit to wear for the next day. I felt like nothing in my closet fit me, or matched anything else in my…
