Under Construction

This is the topic for this year's girls's retreat at church. I have been invited to hang out with them again. To inspire them, to get to know them better, to bring my Spiritual Gifts and use them to the best of my ability. Which is exactly what I've been training in Women's Ministry so far this year.

The topic inspired me. I wanted to do something low key, low cost, and cool. This is what occurred to me.

The cost of thread is a little lower than wire. I thought this might make for a good start to a bracelet. Or...take one of the jumprings off and hang it on a necklace. What do you think?

This one is my Worry Stone style necklace. My tall girl asked me to make her a new one because someone stole her's at school last year. I like it so much that I might keep it and make her a different one.

This was my initial thought. To make a Worry Stone with two ends and then string a bracelet of some sort off of the two ends. It didn't turn out as wonderful as I thought it would. What do you think?

Which one says "foundation"?

The topic of the talks is going to be on building yourself a strong foundation.

Which made me think of the stones I have.

Would you or your teen wear such an idea?

Thanks for all of your feed back. I have under two weeks to get my mind wrapped around what Gift I'm bringing to the retreat.
