tp art....and children???

Have you heard of this t.p art? It is all the rage on the internet right now! Our creative and crafty 14 year old daughter made this!
 You use tp or paper towels tubes, you know, the inside that you discard? First you flatten the tube, cut each one up into 1" strips, then glue the pieces together in whatever design you wish to achieve! When they are all glued in place,  spray paint the entire design thoroughly. In this case, as well, my daughter decided to get an old wooden frame, paint it as well and glue the piece inside of it. Amazingly beautiful! On the wall it looks like cast iron!
  It kind of reminds me of our children. The world puts little value on them. But with time, patience and pruning, the Lord achieves His perfect will for them and makes them into beautiful works of grace ~for His glory!
  Let us know if  you try this!
Soli Deo Gloria!

It is so fun! Charity is going to make a huge celtic cross design next! Although the black looks like iron, you can really spray paint it any color you like. Let me know if you all try it! Blessings, Dana
