"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"
Matthew 6:26
If you have never read Matthew 6, you should. It is one of my favorite passages and kept me sane through my schooling to become a PT and then later Jeff's schooling. God promises He will provide for us. It may not be that new fancy house or car, but He will give us all we need.
As inept as I am at arts and crafts, I am even more so at sales/fundraising. Whenever the kids bring home those packets from school, I toss them in the trash. I know bad mom, but I hate asking people to buy things. My plan is to step aside and see what God has planned. There is no way I could do this process without Him. I know that I am suppose to go to China. That it is His will so I am claiming the fact that the money will fall into place.
Anyway, here goes the first round of sales. I made these necklaces out of glass tiles. Please let me know if you are interested in purchasing any of them. Every dime you give me will go to the service trip I am taking to China. We are using our own money to purchase the materials so it wont even go back to that. Most of the necklaces are $10. The Moment In Time Collection will be $12 since it takes a couple of more steps. I can do any of the patterns you see below on any of the shapes of glass tile (heart, circle or square). Send me an email if you are interested (angela.sorrell@att.net), and we will figure it out.
Hymnals...
These tiles were created using excerpts from an old “Songs of the Church” hymnal. If you have a favorite let me know, I can probably make it work.
Musical Notes….
Nondescript lyrics on a musical background
Postage Paid…
Images of vintage stamps for those of us that still believe in the art of letter writing.
Toile….
I have just always loved toile. There is something special about it. It takes you back in time to old country sides.
Rose Garden….
This picture does not do this one justice. It is beautiful.
He loves me….
Beautiful red rose petals are the highlight of this one. Perfect to give someone you love.
World Traveler….
Love to travel like I do? Then this is the perfect necklace for you. It has images of vintage maps.
Victorian chic….
This is one of my favorites. No words needed.
Hipster….
Flowers and paisleys in vibrant colors for those of us young at heart.
And my personal favorite
A Moment in Time…..
Email me a special picture and I will convert it to a glass tile necklace.
Remember it will be cropped down to a 1”square, 1” diameter circle, or a heart that is 1” at its widest point.
They will come packaged like this…
With a brief note on the back saying how the money is used.
Just an FYI for those of you that live in Liberty Hill. I am about to mail some of these to my mom to sale. I know lucky her =). If you are interested in any of the non-custom ones above just let her know or email me and we can hopefully hook you up before Mother’s Day.
Thanks for taking the time again to read my post. I could also use prayers. Prayers that God prepares my heart for what I will be experiencing in China and prayers for peace for the journey. Also prayers that I keep this jewerly making, money raising process in its place and don’t let it consume me. He already has it all figured out anyway =)
In Him, Angel
