Morse code necklaces

Good day, everyone! :)
Today I'm going to show you some Morse code necklaces Abigail and I made with our cousins recently.

It was really fun making these. We used slightly larger seed beads for the dots, and "noodle" or "straw" beads for the dashes. The little bronze flowers separate each letter, and the sequins mark the beginning and end of the word. The word we chose to spell out was "cousins", but  I think it would be fun to try "mother/daughter", "best friends", "I love you" "sisters" etc, too. We all had different toggles, and picked different  seed beads for the part around the morse code.

Abigail made hers bright orange and pale blue beads, and mine is the one on the far right, with sparkly "snowflake" crystals and golden brown beads. The other ones  are classy black and white, and  green, purple-ish brown, and bright teal.

Our "pattern"! :) 

I used beads I've picked up all over...all of the small seed beads we used for around the morse code part I bought at our local craft shop in our town in Japan. The flower beads and noodle beads were from hobby lobby, here in America, and the toggles were from Walmart. We did these four but there are still a lot of beads left, so the project is not costly at all. :) 

I hope you have a wonderful day. God bless you all!

A True Lady....

Good day! 

Several months back I wrote out this "guideline" on what a true lady is. These are character qualities I hope to improve on as I grow, and I thought it would be interesting to share with you. What do you think about it? In what ways would you apply these qualities in real life situations?
I need to work on all of these, lol, but perhaps the one I need to work on most is being a gentle and loving servent. I need to always remember that my family are some of the most important people to treat with God's kind of love and servitude. Too often I forget that, but, really, because my family is around always, they're the perfect people to practice on :P 

A true lady...
Has enough courage to be the only one standing for what's right,
Is a prayer warrior,
Has a gentleness and love that lets God's goodness shine through,
Is a servant.
Is pure and upright
Is submissive to God's will.
Is not ashamed to talk about her God,
Has a big heart with God on the throne,
Loves to laugh,
Is honestly....in her walk and in her talk.
Values virtue.
Is not afraid of anything, because she has the Best Friend, and He is always there with her.
A true lady can change the world....because all she really wants is to be like Jesus.

Have a wonderful day! 

Love in Christ, 

Victoria
