In His Image

I was reading a facebook post from a friend of mine who went to church with me back in college.  It was a really neat thought that really touched me and I want to share it with you.  Many of you who read my blog love to create just like I do.  That's one of the similarities we share.  My friend, Shaun, is also an artist.  And he runs in circles with other artists.  Here's what his facebook post said...

"At lunch yesterday my friend said something profound about artists and art making. The longing to create, he said, has been passed down to us by our Creator – part of His imprint on us is our innate desire to create and our capacity to enjoy creation."

Is that cool or what?!  Did that strike a chord with anyone else but me?  I just love that!  I have the longing and desire to create because God passed that trait down to me!  The very Creator of the universe has made me in His own image and therefore, my creativity comes from the way He designed me to be like Him.  Wow!  That made a statement to me.  Shaun, thanks so much for sharing that!!!

I love to create and am most happy when I'm making something.  It's no wonder that the small business God has given me to enjoy is one where I make something.  The hairbows that I create are an extension of me and my personality, but they are a trademark of God himself.  Wow!  That's pretty incredible when you think about it.

Today I made a couple of new bows to share with you.  These will be listed in my shop shortly.

This first one is one my all-time favorites!  It's done in all white with tiny touches of silver.  It is extremely elegant and dressy.  It can be made with or without the crystal in the center.  This bow can also be made using any one color besides white.

The next bow screams SUMMER FUN!  It's bright and bold and would be a precious accessory to so many different variations of outfits.  I envision a white top with cute red shorts or a little skirt.  Or maybe a solid color top with white capri pants.  The possibilities are endless.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  If you have a creative side, too, I hope you've been inspired and reminded where your creatvitiy comes from.

To Him be all the glory,
