Simplifying is an important goal of many families today. Many families, like mine, are inspired by the KonMari method of tidying/simplifying. Others like the concept of minimalism separate from KonMari. But all simplifying needs to start with a lifestyle vision. And all simplifying goes well with the thought ''Tis the gift to be simple.' Here's some word art from the 'Simple Gifts' song lyrics ''Tis the gift to be simple' by Joseph Brackett. 'Tis the Gift to be Simple' Word Art Freebie I created a word art freebie based on the words 'Tis the gift to be simple.' For printing,
'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,And when we find ourselves in the place just right,'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.When true simplicity is gained,To bow and to bend we shan't be…
This is a Brand New book in excellent condition. Format: PaperbackAuthor: Jonathan Keith HuntressISBN10: 1617203777ISBN13: 9781617203770 The author spent many years studying the teachings of Jesus, as a student and as a minister, as well as a freelance writer. His deep insights into the essential meaning of the parables is astonishing in its simplicity, hence the title of the book. There is also a wealth of historical research here, perhaps some things that are generally unknown to the public at large. Huntress also delves into his own spiritual awakening as a result of his studies and life experience, and this is also a very important and inspiring part of the book.

my daily quilts really have a life of their own. some are busy, some some are minimal, some are loud, some quiet. listening to them is one of the joys in my day. i have to be quite still and quiet to hear them sometimes. the past two days they've been asking to be square instead of rectangular. they've asked to have simple shapes and solid colors. i don't know how many will follow the lead of these two, but i'm happy to do as asked. they seem to have a clarity that i'm drawn to. 9.6.2012: she loved being on stage, being the center of attention, being in the spotlight. fortunately she had some talent and people didn't wince when she appeared. but if they did, well, she knew how to tap dance and she'd just dance her way off the stage, out of the theater, and all the way home... 9.7.2012 after three years growing quietly in her garden, the little crape myrtle bloomed. just a few pink flowers, but wonderful to behold. "i'm a late bloomer, too" she said. "i wonder what color i'll be?" do you like them? cheers, karen anne

This fun cheese spreader/knife was once a just a simple butter spreader. We have taken it from simple butter spreader to "star of the show" by adding this jolly hand-stamped phrase “tis the season”. Simply add a gorgeous wooden cutting board and it is sure to get your holiday party started. Makes a lovely hostess gift. This listing is for one spreader shown circled in third photo. Manufacturer: William Rogers Mfg. Pattern Name: Pickwick Pattern Date: 1938 Dimensions: 5-7/8" total length. For all of our designs we choose wonderful vintage/antique silverplate cutlery. Once chosen, the pieces are modified and beautified by HAND; they are cut, drilled, filed, and polished, etc. All our creations are handmade - as such no two items are exactly alike. Condition: Please note, this is an antique item that was once used as a utensil. As a result, there may be some wear to the silver-plate, fine scratches or marks from use. But some wear gives the piece patina and personality. We do our best to disclose any condition issues of note.
