here we go.....

Lots of exciting things going on around here!
Busily busily preparing for a couple of shows coming up - see the events page for the 411 on that. And there will be a whole new product line coming out - something I have been dreaming about - that may be too dramatic - but it has been on my heart for some time now & I can't wait to introduce you all to it.
It will serve all types of purposes - a blessing for your family, your friends & as always, to help the cause of the orphan.
You have been so generous in your support of this ministry - you have helped families move down the road of adoption - which means you have helped children move steps closer to being a part of a family, you have touched children who remain in orphanages, you have been a part of 5 specific children's lives as they grow together in a group home setting with a loving caregiver. You have acted as the hands & the feet of Jesus in caring for one another.
I am eager to get this Neema shop back up & running.
And I will.
And in the meantime, make sure you come see me at the events coming up. And help spread the word!

holiday harvest market

Well, there's a show coming up this weekend & all the details are here.

Good to be back :).

rest.

Well, I took a little time off from painting to relax a little with the family over the summer.
And I will tell you that relaxing is just not what happens when there is an almost 2 year old in the house. But it was nice to have a little bit more of my attention to give to them. I am in the middle of finishing some orders & getting things ready for a few shows coming up AND I have a little something new to offer....I am eager to get a day to tie up all the loose strings of it all.

I hope you have all been well.....I'll be ready to be back in the swing of things real soon - so stay tuned!

busy painting

I've been busy busy painting your orders! It's been great & be on the lookout for an email from me saying that your order is ready! Most of the star shirts are here as well - we're waiting on a couple of onesies to get them all finished. Just wanted to give you a quick update. Thank you for supporting these kids in Tanzania as well as playing a part in bringing baby Gilbert home from Uganda!

I have gotten some questions about the star shirts - great for anytime & especially for the 4th! There are some girl shirts available. Above is one I had made for my little girl. There are also red shirts for the boys....just letting you know your options.

And I was rushing out of town when I posted that last one but Jennie's blocks should have been on that post! These are GREAT! I think one of the cutest ways I saw them displayed was at a baby shower with the child's name on them....they were sitting on the cake, I believe. A great personal idea for these new babies.

So, let me know pretty quick if these are things you want to order - I have a few shirts available in various sizes. Just email me at the contact info listed above.

Thanks so much!

show update

These were some of the items available at the show yesterday. It was so much fun & a total encouragement! Many of these items are already gone - but some are available for either sale or order - Mother's Day is right around the corner!

Like this guy's shirt! I saw him later that afternoon sporting his new shirt - a perfect 4th of July picture! These are $13/ea - let me know if you want to order some. Contact info is above.

Neema Show location change!!

The show tomorrow (APRIL 29) will be at Robbie Jackson's home
