Upcycled

One of the current buzz words in the craft arena right now is 'upcycle' which basically means to take something you already have and give it a bit of a face lift; essentially, to go from drab to FAB! with some simple things that you most likely already have hanging around the house or putting to use some techniques which you already know but just haven't used in a while....maybe in quite a while.

For example, to go from this...



to this


which is what I've been doing with most of my time lately ~ just take a look at my craft blog ~ hence the lack of posting here. But I was thinking about upcycling and how it can absolutely apply to marriage as well. As believers, most of us know what God has to say about marriage but seem to have been going around living in the drab worldly way about it instead of the FAB! way that God designed it to be.

Sometimes, you just have to get creative and before you knock creating (or think that you're not) just remember that we were created by the ultimate Creator and as we're created in His image I'm thinking that means that we all have creative abilities.

So get crackin'! or...um...creatin'!
