a good reminder.

In debating (with myself) about what to put above the bed in our guest room #2, I asked (myself) the question "what do I want to communicate with this...?". I am not very artsy, thus I don't readily appreciate much art. I do, however, appreciate home decor with meaning and purpose.

I was inspired by this idea (I never come up with ideas on my own! they are always "borrowed" from more creative people) to spell a word over the bed.

Fortunately, Hayden was here to help! She is always such a good helper.

After considering many different options for hanging,  Hayden helped me decide to use these sticky strips so the letters would be flat against the wall.
