*Forty31*

It's been ten months since I've posted a blog. Which also means it's been ten months since I've attempted a new recipe. Or cooked ... for that matter. Don't you judge me ... I know I'm pathetic. I HAVE, however, been investing a decent amount of my time into a new business venture with my best friend in all the land! We are SO excited about this new business and are beyond blessed to be able to work together so well in a business that we have centered around the Lord since day one. Forty31? You might be wondering what in the devil that stands for. Good thing I'm an open book. 

"But those who wait for the Lord's help find renewed strength; they rise up as if they had eagles' wings, they run without growing weary, they walk without getting tired."
 - Isaiah 40:31

This is our life verse. Always depending on the Lord for guidance and using the strengths that He has given us to add substance and happiness to our lives.

We have been discussing starting a business for several months and finally established our business officially in August, 2012. Since then we have been completely blessed with free supplies, precious friends who have purchased our work, amazing family who are helping to spread the word, and a fantastic seamstress that has agreed to work with us and with our customers to give their items a bit of pizazz! 

We have been working on several different projects in an attempt to get ready for Tannehill Trade Days in November and have been so blessed with orders that we've been struggling to build up an inventory of demos. But God ALWAYS provides. Just last week we were given free wood on which we have been sketching new ideas and I will post them soon! 

Just a little background on this "Forty31" thing I've been inundating your news feed with. Stay tuned for more info and new products! We are so excited to bring you new things for the upcoming holiday season!

These are a few of the door hangers that we have been working on! These start at $40.

These are some iPhone wallpapers that I have been working on for the shop!
