How many times have you seen a post on Instagram, a pin on Pinterest, or even watched a neighbor or friend complete a project that you yourself wanted to do but never got around to it?
I’m guilty and I know I’m not the only one 😉
In her book Girl, Wash Your Face Rachel Hollis wrote “Create as a gift to yourself and to the higher power who blessed you with those abilities.”
After reading this I realized what great a gift creating is! If you are able to create, you have a mind capable of imagining and processing. Creating reminds us of what a gift it is to be alive while also reminding us of the greater power. I honestly think some of my most favorite moments in life have been when I’ve created something. It’s not just a reward for myself but also a reminder of who I was made in the image of, our Heavenly Father!
Since I was little I have loved to craft. I think I owned more boxes of crayons, paints, and markers than anyone else I knew. Once I “grew up” adult life took over and it was until recently when I made it a priority to create that I realized how much creating is a part of my identity. I have to create!
I’m excited to work on some DIY projects. My Pinterest board won’t even know what hit it 🙂 What kinds of DIY projects would you like to see?
Love this idea and everything you have said. Can’t wait to follow your project based life and work on things myself.
