Slat Wall Mock Up - JFleming 2015
Brown is nice too - it's warm and inviting, but not as flexible in relation to design solutions.

Who knew slat board could be so cool? The boss came back from a staff retreat and brought me the idea of using a slat wall as a solution for what I've jokingly called his "wall of faces" (loosely translated: it's a wall of pictures for the worship ministry). The pictures have been taken by one of our church members - a very talented photographer - they'll be grayscaled. If the idea is approved, it's going to be nice when it's done.

The above images are two of the many mock ups I've done for this wall idea, and I have to say that I like the slat board idea so much better than any of the other media choices we've explored. It will prove to be the most flexible for future things too. Once the boards are up, it won't be hard to install and remove and rearrange pictures and such at will. Surprisingly that's 96 little 5x7 pictures on there, a 2' wide banner in the middle and a 10.5' wide banner at the top and there's breathing room aplenty.

Stitching Project: Bear

Found a pattern for a simple bear on pinterst - decided to do one of them yesterday evening. It didn't take long and I think it turned out ok. What do you think? I'm not crazy about the shape of the arms - am going to make those a little different next time. I enjoyed doing it so much that I think I'm going to re-purpose those millions of old shirts into cute little plush dolls I can send with our church members when they go on various mission trips. And I should have enough left to put into an Operation Christmas Child box or two this fall.

Hang a Star - Illustration

The original sketch for "Hang a Star". I love to draw snowmen and little animals in scenes. Here's the completed illustration - colored digitally in photoshop.
