"Begin today and write in it your goings and comings, your deepest thoughts, your achievements and your failures, your associations and your triumphs, your impressions and your testimonies. I promise you that if you will keep your journals and records, they will indeed be a source of great inspiration to you, each other, your children, your grand-children and others throughout the generations. Remember, the Savior chastised those who failed to record important events." --President Spencer W. Kimball

My Creation...

So for my new house, I wanted to focus on our Tongan heritage, while keeping it modern and not fobby.... hahaha!  Here is the one of the projects I've been working on.  I still need to frame it, but I thought it was a good way to make use of the tapa cloth that Tea was going to throw away.  I'm so excited to see what my house will look like once we're completely done decorating & painting it.  Thanks to my older sister Leslie, I've got a lot of really good ideas floating around in my head.  I'll be sure to post pictures up as soon as I'm done!  We've also got some pictures and the mat inside the frame is covered in the tapa cloth.... it's all coming together so nicely and I'm so excited!
