Etsy Swap | Fall 2014

Today I am linking up with Meg of Rivers and Roads and Amy of Taking Steps Home for the Etsy Swap '14 linkup. I am so excited to show you all what I received. I got assigned to Ashley Woods, you can find out what she got on her blog, because I didn't take any pictures. But I had so much fun shopping for her though!

 I received a cute makeup bag From Amanda Fair Designs and Bake, and made with love cards from Pen and Paint from Meg of Beautiful Things. I loved everything I got, she got me so well! I loved being able to check out her blog and get to know her a little bit through her sweet note that she sent with the package.



Here's a closer look at the awesome notecards and the makeup bag, both of which i LOVE! Thank you Meg for these awesome gifts! 




Did you join in the Etsy swap? Be sure to link up your posts on either Meg or Amy's blog! I can't wait to see what everyone got!

Four Tips for Creating Community through Blogging

1. Reach out to other bloggers:  this is an  essential when wanting to get into community. It can be as small as a comment on their blog, or an email. I have built relationships with other bloggers through email, commenting on their blogs, etc. For me it has been a beneficial thing, to create community in something that I really didn't know there was any.   This is a great post on why bloggers need community.  2. Join a blog group on Facebook, or some other social media group: I have joined the Peony Project on facebook which is a group for other christian bloggers. It's a great group and i would definitely recommend it!  3. Make meaningful comments: when I say meaningful comments I don't mean that you have to write a novel, but at least engage with the post somehow. Check out Madison's post on how to comment on blogs to find out more.  4. Plan a blogger Meetup : If you there

This year I have some exciting new content in store for you all, which i will explain in more detail below. 1. Around The Table Linkup: This is a linkup that I am personally really excited about. It's going to be a linkup where there's a theme for each month, but I may do some months without a theme.

Being Content

Content, As christian women we here that word more times than we can count, especially in a season of waiting. Content is defined as,   pleased and satisfied : not needing more.  Have you been in a season in your life where your feel like you are just waiting? Waiting for a new job, waiting for things to get better, waiting for marriage, etc. Whatever you are waiting for, sometimes it just seems like it's taking forever just like a long line at the grocery store.  When I think about being content, my thoughts instantly go to being content in my singleness. How many times have we heard the cliche lines like "just wait, God's got it" said by well meaning people, only to make you feel worse. There was a time in my life where it was so hard to hear all of those lines without just wanting to cry, because like I said it made me feel worse rather than better.  That is when I would get discontent in waiting,  sometimes I feel like i am in this never-endin
