Mimi Sue's Cottage

A home is much more than a house built of lumber, brick, or stone. A home is made of love, sacrifice, and respect. We are responsible for the homes we build. We must build wisely, for eternity is not a short voyage. There will be calm and wind, sunlight and shadows, joy and sorrow. But if we really try, our home can be a bit of heaven here on earth.

JOY!

Yet another fun idea from Pinterest.
 
Originally from the DIY Network.
 
My adorable friends Janis and Sue and I got together last week to
make these joyful signs.
 
 
Janis had a neighbor that took down a fence so she asked if she
could have some of the boards.  The neighbor said yes and we had
the perfect canvas for our sign.
 
 
 
Janis really knows her way around power tools so these were
a snap to put together.
 
 
 


 
 
 
This is the original from Pinterest.

 
We all loved them so much that Janis made a few more to share.
 
If you live in Utah you can find them
 at that cute shop in Farmington, Utah, Just A Bed of Roses.
 
Or you can email me and I'll save one for you because I know they'll go fast!
 
My email address is on my sidebar.
 
Hope your holidays are filled with Joy!

I fell in love with that sign on Pintress too! I love how yours turned out. I have been wanting to make some sort of Christmas sign and I think I may just keep it simple and give this one a go.

Those are so cute! I'm going to miss driving by your house all the time--did you know we moved? Finally have some room to breathe--especially after baby number five came.
