The inspiration was this:
The Pinterest version wasn't a tutorial, so I had to wing-it a bit. I cut out letters from cereal boxes I dug out of our recycling box. (It's such a good thing we wait for for-ev-er to actually take the boxes to the recycling place.) Then I glued the fabric to the cardboard and cut around the letters.
Ta Da:
So fun!
I told Ben I might just paint a headboard on the wall. ;) He thinks I'm kidding.
Side Note: *I used to be sort of cynical about that phrase. Because, Duh, we all know that you need more than "love" to make a marriage great. But after I sat on the idea of it for awhile, I began to look at it from a Biblical perspective rather than a Hollywood perspective. And Biblical love encompasses so much more than feelings. 1 Corinthians...
Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.
Love doesn't strut,
Doesn't have a swelled head,
Doesn't force itself on others,
Isn't always "me first,"
Doesn't fly off the handle,
Doesn't keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn't revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end.
That kind of love, is a supernatural love, that comes from God alone. And it really is all we need.
