Need something catchy for this new series...

A few months ago I taught a class of women at my church about creating a Christ centered home.  One of the things I thought about from that lesson was how we choose to decorate our homes.  Do we decorate them so that our children know what we believe?  Are there subtle / sneaky / subliminal {or not so sneaky} reminders throughout our homes so that our families "do not doubt what we know"? 

A few years ago I started coming up with ideas to decorate around gospel centered themes or scriptures.  It all started with the following scripture. . .

"Fear not little flock; 
for it is your Father's 
good pleasure to 
give you the kingdom". 

~Luke 12:32


And a nursery idea was born!




I love the imagery this scripture gives me, and that we are called his little flock.  So the theme I came up with was a darling little nursery decorated in creamy pinks and greens with sheep accessories and pictures of  The Good Shepherd on the wall.  It seems like such a comforting theme for a baby.

So each Sunday I will post one of my idea boards for you until I run out of ideas.  Now I just need a catchy series name.  So help a girl out and give me some ideas!   Ready...set...and GO!

  1. Hi B'. I'm really not good at creative names, but what about:

    * Happy, Holy Havens
    * Divine Decorations
    *Inspiring Interiors
    * Spiritual Sanctuaries

    Feel free to use NONE of them ;-)

  2. Oh! Good ones Vanessa! I'm really liking "Inspiring Interiors" now! That one doesn't confine me just to the scriptures but other uplifting and encouraging themes too! :D

    I'm not very good at names either and all I came up with was, "Divine Design" but that is already taken by Candice Olson on HGTV! LOL!
