I was inspired by a piece of art that immediately ignited intense feelings of euphoria. While visiting the Houston Museum of Natural Science with my husband, I could not take my eyes off of this piece of petrified wood.
According to Geology.com, Petrified wood is a fossil. It forms when plant material is buried by sediment and protected from decay by oxygen and organisms.
Petrified Wood
I enjoy the beautiful objects that God created and often try to implement natural elements in my home whenever I can. Natural elements remind me of God and how marvelous and amazing He is. Only He could have created something so beautiful like a tree, and then transform it. The tree stump looks like it has no life until a plant is imbedded inside and then He creates this unique art piece.
Nehemiah 9:6 – Thou, [even] thou, [art] LORD alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all [things] that [are] therein, the seas, and all that [is] therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.
The bright colored material is hard like stone with rich hues intermixed in a beautiful collage. AHHH! Lord you are so amazing! To see this in person, well it is simply breathtaking. Well, I was so inspired by this art that I decided to design a bedroom for those who appreciate natural elements as much as I do. I used wood, metal, and natural fabrics to create this room. Here is a collage of my ideas, and I even attached some links of the resources for you. ENJOY!!
