Hello Beautiful People,
I wanted to say thank you so much for being a part of our blog family of subscribers. Would you believe Bubblingwitheleganceandgrace.com started in 2009 and would not be what it is today without you taking the time to read our blog posts. In collaboration with KatherinesCorner.com, we appreciate and invite you to enter the “Thank You” giveaway for a chance to win $120.
We are officially in November family, and it can be cold and warm all on the same day. My hubby brought in my fall and winter clothes and shoes. That is a project for me because I have to sort through everything. I have a small space, so I must select what items should be in my wardrobe for the season and what should be stored away. Going through this process helps me because I may purge a few items to give away, which makes me feel good.
What are your fall projects?
Thank you giveaway with Katherine, JT and blogging friends

Hello, Elegant Ones!
Train up a child in the way it should go.
What does that mean?
My Dad and Mother would make that statement to me. They would let me know that they were not my friends. They were my parents. The difference is that they love me, but they would correct me when I needed it.
Many times, when you become a parent, there is no handbook for direction or guidance in raising your child. Written by Jimmy and Karen Evans with their daughter, Julie Evans Albracht, Fighting for the Soul of Your Child may be the book you need. This book is an essential resource for parents who desire to raise their children from a biblical perspective. Today’s world is filled with numerous outside forces trying to lead a child down the wrong path. Parents must have the right tools to fight this battle in their child’s soul.

Parents will discover practical strategies and insight to empower their role in shaping their child’s future.

Ciao Beautiful People,
Fall is in the air; leaves are falling, and a cool breeze is blowing in the wind. Welcome to the Autumn Leaves on a Tray virtual tour; please sit down, get a cup of hot tea, and make yourself at home.
Jorge Perez’s whimsical glass pumpkins
You ask what was the thought process behind the design.
I had so much fun putting this tray together. The design was inspired by Jorge Perez’s glass pumpkins that I purchased on SHOPHQ. These two glass pumpkins are so whimsical that the creative juices began to flow immediately. I used them as the centerpiece of my design. The metallic running through the pumpkins and the fluidity of the stem are gorgeous.
Being Thankful
Over the last few years, I have noticed that the trend has been encouraging words on different designs, although it’s a lifestyle.
What are you thankful for? What are you feeling grateful for?
When I see words such as blessed, grateful, and thankful, I review my gratitude journal to see what I have written over the last few years.
I recommend trying it for 30 days and seeing what it does for your mindset. I suggest that you write down three things you are grateful for each day. It has been a blessing to me. I change my focus on the good things in my life and not dwell on the not-so-good stuff. After 30 days, you may see the difference it is making in your life that you want to continue.
Full Tray design
All the other decorations are pieces I have collected throughout the years. It makes me feel good to incorporate vintage into my new design because I recall looking back at how I put each item. The short B-roll video shows you the entire tray. In the design scheme, I added friendly critters because we have animals in our family.
Owl and Scarecrow
My hubby and I were at Aldi not too long ago when I saw these cute critters on sale at a ridiculous price and excellent quality. I incorporated the owl, duck, and hedgehog into my design, and it worked well. These critters bring a new level of elegance to the overall layout and make me smile.

Tip: Candles add warmth and comfort to a tray and a room. These candles are battery-operated and also a great find from Aldi.
Enjoy!

Hello, Elegant Ones
I know for many people, this week has been filled with extreme shock and sorrow for what has happened to the Israeli people. Many people do not realize that these events are rooted in the foundation of the Old Testament. To understand these events from a biblical point of view,
we need to read and study the Old Testament to know who everyone is and how their decisions and actions caused the turmoil we see today. For some, myself included, the challenge is keeping all the people and events clear to know how to talk about them effectively.
When I read through and study the Bible, I believe having a companion study tool like The Old Testament Handbook is essential when I have questions or want to dive deeper. The Old Testament Handbook is broken down by book and pulls out the necessary details to grasp the bigger narrative. You can use the handbook as a companion tool after reading the Old Testament book or as a stand-alone piece if you want to focus only on the essential parts.
Order your copy of The Old Testament Handbook today!

Good Afternoon, Elegant Ones
Blessings that you are having a fantastic day!
I look forward to cooler weather and watching the leaves turn colors and fall from the trees. My hubby told me about an omega block over the Midwest, where we have seen temperatures in the 90s this past week. I am looking forward to those cool breezes.
In collaboration with Lifeway Christian Resources, our team had the opportunity to review a new tool during your daily bible study — The Old Testament Handbook. The Old Testament Handbook features the highly readable, highly reliable text of the Christian Standard Bible. The CSB captures the Bible’s original meaning without sacrificing clarity, making it easier to engage with Scripture’s life-transforming message and to share it with others.
My hubby and I are reading through the Bible with the Chronological Reading plan with Tara Leigh Cobble and the Bible Recap on YouVersion. We finished the Old Testament this weekend and are now moving on to the New Testament. I enjoy reading the Bible in hard copy, but I also listen on my smartphone and iPad.
Do you prefer reading the Bible in hard copy form or listening to the Bible on audio or both ways?
When I read through and study the Bible, I believe having a companion study tool is good when I have questions or want to dive deeper. Many parts of the Old Testament can be confusing or difficult to understand, so having a companion tool like The Old Testament Handbook is essential.
TIP: You can ask the Lord to give you revelation on anything you do not understand. Write down your questions when you are reading, and when the revelations come to you, note what you learned.
Do you want to dive deeper into the Word Of God? The Old Testament Handbook is the tool you need to understand better.
