Winter Treasures
Winter is the coldest time of the year. It's a time to bundle up and pull out your sweaters, scarves, and boots. It is a season of blessings and to gather with family and friends. Find time to rest and perhaps sit by the fireplace with a good book or a cup of Christmas tea. Be inspired by the beautiful colors and fragrance of the holiday season!
Winter Inspiration
Our decor was inspired by the beautiful colors of the holiday season Our collection of Christmas cardinals created the focal point for our holiday season. The cardinal symbolizes the beauty and warmth of the holiday season. We used red poinsettias plates and to adorn the Christmas tree. A charcuterie board is always a festive favorite. This became our go-to for the holiday season.
'Tis the Season!

Spring Inspiration
​
Our Easter decor was inspired by our collection of brown cast iron bunnies. A faux grass table runner is the foundation for our tablescape. We combined our favorite brown bunny plates with new beige cotton lace placemats, burlap and lace flower napkin rings, and beige napkins. Our homemade cupcake stands became pedestals for ceramic egg placecard holders. The four windmills are the focal point of our tablescape. The candlesticks on each side of the windmills add a little bling to the table. We added several metal pieces, some filled with handmade decorative eggs to repeat the metal of the windmills. The center white plate and bowls held up by brown cast iron bunnies are waiting to be filled with side dishes. We finished the tablescape by tucking various green sprigs and natural decorative spears throughout.

In a Book
Be inspired by books, booklets, and other publications that have inspired some of our creative expressions, fellowship events, and teatime ministries.
Who Does God Say I Am?
"I Am..." affirmations are favorites to scrap because everyone can identify with them. These statements and Bible scriptures immediately lift ones spirits because they remind you of who and "whose" you are. Affirmations can be presented in many creative ways. This interactive book is embellished with floral accents and vintage jewels. It is also filled with several flaps and pockets that reveal encouraging words directly to you from the Bible. As you view these pages, we hope that you will be blessed and inspired.
Be Blessed Book
Be Blessed Book. "The Blessing" is one of our favorites to scrap because everyone can identify with it and quotes and Bible scriptures can be added to personalize it. It can be presented in different ways. We have previously shared The Blessing made with binder rings and a variety of ribbons. This version is made in a binder format. See other versions in The Attic.

Christmas Memories
A December to Remember! Here's a unique way to capture your special December memories. Begin with a small store-bought photo album (approximately 6"x8"). Place your favorite Christmas cards on coordinated scrapbook paper to create focal points in your album. Use the photo sleeves for your Christmas pictures and add pages for personal journaling. Also, include memorable quotes and tags for added variety and interest. Embellish pages with flowers, jewels, and ribbons. Have fun! Be creative!
Creative Memories
First impressions matter. When you give a gift, a favor, or create a tablescape, your thoughtfulness reflects the love you have for the recipient. In essence you are saying, "You are important to us." Each of these creative expressions are gifts, packaged to reflect your excitement in preparing them. It all starts with Packaging from the HeartTM.
Just Because! Surprise a friend or family member with a special gift, "Just Because". Look for opportunities to bless others.
Welcoming Baby!
We love showering the whole family with a special gift to welcome their new blessing.
Just Because! Surprise a friend or family member with a special baby gift, "Just Because". This was a perfect opportunity to bless the expectant family with an unexpected special gift... especially for the "Big Sister of the Little Mister". Look for opportunities to do the same.
Just Because! Surprise a friend with a gift, "Just Because". We have a friend who had waited a very long time to become a grandmother. This was the perfect opportunity to bless her with an unexpected special gift. Look for opportunities to do the same.

​
Bible Jewelry Workshop
We invited a few friends for an exclusive Inspired Ministries Workshop to share our latest inspired creation, Bible Jewelry
to tell stories and quote scriptures with beads and charms. We created three different designs to bless others. See the finished projects below.
​
Inspired Ministries' Charm Markers and Charm Clips are created with beads and charms that represent key aspects of favorite Bible stories and scriptures. You can mark your favorite scripture or Bible story with a handmade Charm Marker for quick reference and inspiration…or place a Charm Clip on the spine or front of your Bible for instant inspiration and encouragement.
Gold there is, and rubies in abundance,
but lips that speak knowledge are a rare jewel.
Proverbs 20:15
Come together with a small group for Bible study or a social gathering. We love sharing one of our favorite mealtime experiences during different types of events. A small group gathering is the perfect time for "Tatertinis"... fully-loaded mashed potatoes in a beautiful martini glass.
Host a "Tatertini" Party. Our church encourages small groups. We're always looking for fun ways to enhance our fellowship times together. Here we introduced Tatertinis. What's a Tatertini? Take a look and see.
Share a favorite book or host a book launch party. We had the pleasure of hosting a book launch party for two of our special friends. The title of their book inspired the theme for our party from beginning to end. Try doing this with one of your favorite books or one that inspired you. What a great excuse to get together with a group of friends.

Give a favor as a reminder of your time with guests. We enjoy giving favors with inspirational messages. We are sharing a potpourri of ideas that can be used for many occasions. Choose the appropriate quote and embellishments for the occasion.
Teatime
Why is teatime important? A teatime experience is a way family and friends can come together and temporarily free their thoughts of their busy schedules and commitments and relax and bask in the beauty of the spirit of teatime. Create an environment of caring and sharing so each of your tea guests will feel special.
Host a Tea Party for family, friends, a large group of women, a small group of girlfriends, or a very special young lady.
A Tea Party for Arika
As Arika was growing up, she heard many stories about family tea parties but she was much too young to attend. Her desire was one day to be included. In honor of Arika, we planned this special tea party with her help. She chose the theme, the color scheme, and the guest list. She even requested her favorite tea - mint tea. It was our desire to make this three-generational gathering a magical tea party for Miss Arika and her guests.
Tea at Elizabeth's House
The "Tea at Elizabeth's House" tea was inspired by Luke 1:28. God chose Mary, an ordinary woman, to become the mother of Jesus. Mary was a peasant from a humble village in a small town and was anxious to share the news with her cousin. She traveled many miles to Elizabeth's house.
This afternoon tea, was an event centered around the story of Mary and Elizabeth's friendship. Their story reminds us of the importance of building friendships and enjoying the sweet communion of sisterhood. Our hospitality team of handsome gentlemen volunteered to serve the ladies. They poured the first cup of tea and served the ladies in love.
Invite a small or large group of ladies to tea. Pick a theme and invite your friends to help you host.
The "Tea Girls" share a friendship that evolved into a five-year teatime ministry. These ladies hosted hundreds of women, from all ages and from diverse backgrounds, to an afternoon tea at no charge to guests.
​
Alabaster Box Tea
The theme of this tea was inspired by the song, Alabaster Box. We gathered 75 ladies for an afternoon tea. Invite a small or large group of ladies to tea. Pick a theme and invite your friends to help you host. We have included the song lyrics and our tea symbols to help you get started or for a fresh new idea.
Blessed and Highly Favored Tea
The Blessed and Highly Favored Tea was inspired by Luke 1:28. God chose Mary, an ordinary woman, to become the mother of Jesus. Mary was a peasant from a humble village in a small town. We asked our guests to wear a black dress for this event to remind us all that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. These "Women of Elegance" came wearing their crowns and were blessed by a message from Mrs. Linda Gordon.
We wanted our guests to feel like "royal-tea... favored by our almighty God. Our "hospitali-tea" team of handsome gentlemen volunteered to serve the ladies. They poured the first cup of tea and served the ladies in love. This afternoon tea, was an event for building friendships and enjoying the sweet communion of sisterhood.

Why is teatime important? A teatime experience is a way family and friends can come together and temporarily free their thoughts of their busy schedules and commitments and relax and bask in the beauty of the spirit of teatime. Create an environment of caring and sharing so each of your tea guests will feel special.

Winter is the coldest time of the year. It's a time to bundle up and pull out your sweaters, scarves, and boots. It is a season of blessings and to gather with family and friends. Find time to rest and perhaps sit by the fireplace with a good book or a cup of Christmas tea. Be inspired by the beautiful colors and fragrance of the holiday season!
Fall is Here!
Fall is the transition between the warmth of summer and the coldest time of the year. The leaves melt into beautiful shades of the sunset and the aromas of pumpkin and spice fill the air. It is a season of giving thanks and bringing family and friends together. Be inspired by the beautiful colors and fragrance of fall!
Fall Inspiration
Our decor was inspired by the vibrant colors of fall. Our collection of galvanized metal accessories created interesting texture. We combined our love of oversized cutting boards as the foundation for our tablescape. We combined white serving pieces with our black and white ironstone dishes with black and white polka dot napkins with bejeweled napkin rings. We finished the tablescape by tucking various sunflowers, pumpkins and gourds throughout.
Host a Taco Bar!
Invite friends over for a "build-your-own" taco experience and serve them as many "margaritas" as they would like - non-alcoholic of course!

FELLOWSHIP
It is important to fellowship with friends, family, and church family. There's something inspirational about gathering together for food, fun, and fellowship. Create memorable experiences with family, friends or for a good cause.
Pass it On!
Recently we created a memorable experience with friends to share a new creative project. We are reminded that we were created in the image of the Master Creator (Genesis 1:27) and that we are to share our gifts to glorify the Lord. We encourage you to
Create... Be Blessed... Be Inspired!
