    Awesome! Thanks for adding email subscriptions. I find it so much easier to keep up with everyone’s blogs when they come to my inbox. Can’t wait to catch the next post.

    God Bless Your Hearts!  I am new to your blog and seriously loving it.
    My daughters home burned a long time ago, when she was just starting out and my Mothers home burned in the California Cedar Fire.  Makes me feel like I  have a connection to you.  MY GOD, but you are a strong family……………………………………..kudos to you all.

    I think I’m a fan for life!

    Edie,
    You are such an inspiration to me on a daily basis. I love your new home and have so enjoyed watching the transformation. Your kitchen made me want to cry before it was even done! I found your blog through a friend of your sisters, Ashley Robertson. Ashley’s sister and I are friends and we call each other when we see new things posted on your blog! You are such an inspiration spiritually as well as decorating wise. I love reading what you have to say as much as the beautiful images you have posted. We would love it if you did an open house. That may be a little forward but we just love what you have done so much and to see it in person would just make our day, week and yr.
    Thank you so much again, and God bless you and your family in your new home.

      Hi Heather!
      Well, any friend of Gina’s is a friend of mine—she’s the best sister/friend EVER!   I am thinking of doing an open house and I’d love to meet y’all.  I’ll post it on the blog if we decide to do it—probably not til spring or summer.  Thanks so much for taking the time to encourage—it means a lot.
      Blesssings galore to you both :)

    You just made my day!  I’m not good keeping up with blogs whose subscriptions work with something other than e-mail.  I guess that’s just me.  Edie…you’re such a blessing!  I will look forward to your inspiration via e-mail.  And Thanks!!!!

  • Manda

    Just came across your blog and love it.  Would love to know how you went about bringing to life your living room from the design board

    • http://lifeingraceblog.com edie wadsworth

      thanks manda!
      i started by purchasing the furniture and then slowly, over time, added the accessories and pillows.  
      it’s still a work in progress.  i’m probably not using the fabric we originally picked out so i’ve been on the hunt for the perfect fabric for window treatments.
      hope that helps!

    Dear Edie,
    You are my new best friend! Don’t tell my old “best friends”! I’ve only scraped the surface of your blog, but you’re authentic, smart, witty and adorable. Our grace from God is the greatest gift. But, if you don’t mind me speaking from the heart, please stop saying you don’t deserve all the gifts he’s given you. You profess your faith, do your best, have given your all and unleSs you rob banks for a living, it’s all OK.

  • holly

    Started reading your blog through a link about the fire from another blog. Thank you for being real and trusting God in your realness. So glad you have a new beautiful home.

    I’m a pretty recent reader of your blog, but I just love it! Congratulations on your new home – it’s lovely and inspiring! And, while poking around in your archives I discover we have similar taste in books (my shelf makes me look like a seminary student!) AND music – my whole clan saw The Avett Brothers in Dallas last month. Best. Concert. Ever. I also printed out your “prayer for our home” to share with our deacon wives Sunday during a discussion of hospitality! Just wanted to say, “Hi. Nice to meet you. And thanks for sharing your life!”

    • http://lifeingraceblog.com edie wadsworth

      you did have to go make me green with envy over that concert, now didn’t you :) i’m dying to see them live!
      and thank you for such kind words!
      bless you friend,

    Hey Edie! Just wanted to say “sooo wonderful and sweet of you to share so much of your brand new home with us!”.  Every time I think of you,  Isaiah 61:3 comes to mind (beauty for ashes).  Each beautiful lamp, every faucet, all the pipes and carpets and wood planks are your ebeneezers.  God is so faithful…and you rock for pointing us all back to Him. xoxo

    • http://lifeingraceblog.com edie wadsworth

      you are such a sweet encouragement ms. cathy!
      thank you so much for visiting and for taking the time to bless.
      much love,
      edie

    Edie, it’s been a delight to read your “31 days” posts.  Your blog offers so many gifts to its readers, but they all stem from beauty … the beauty of a transparent heart trusting our Jesus, the beauty of family, the beauty of your eye for color and style (quite a dreamy kitchen and workroom) and the beauty of laughter (thinking of Hank).  Truly a life in grace.  Peace be with you!

    • http://lifeingraceblog.com edie wadsworth

      such beautiful encouraging words!
      i am blessed by you :)

    I had to leave a beautiful house in France and until I can have my own home again, I shall enjoy yours! Thank you

  • Thereadysetgogirl

    I’m new to blogging and wanted you to know that I find a lot of inspiration in yours. Thank you! You have a wonderful “voice”.

  • Pam

    Found your blog via House of Turquoise.  Thank goodness!  I’m home recovering from a “Tango dancing” incident and read everything I could open to catch up.  We’re almost neighbors with many things on your list in common except that we are Yankees and arrived after 15 moves, most on behalf of my husband’s career at Alcoa.  I was looking at your sources for the “HOT” post and quickly realized we love to shop at many of the same places.  Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Ours was casual too due to the dance incident-or the trip I took over my husband’s box of summer clothes.  what a joy it was to have everyone under one roof if only for the weekend!

    • http://lifeingraceblog.com edie wadsworth

      thanks for visiting pam! so nice to *meet* you. hope you recover quickly from your tango incident. i’d be proud as ever to say i injured myself at the tango—it’d be more likely related to tripping over the dog at my house! bless you friend :)

    Thank you for putting into words and photos the beauty of your home and the faith of your soul.  This combination will draw me back to your blog again and again. Lovely…your home, your heart and your grateful thanksgiving to our Lord!

    I just found your blog this morning while showing my husband Emily’s blog about “Dare to paint your cupboards black”.  I’ve been reading your blog all day.  I live in MN right near the Mississippi River.  Your blog is filled with inspiration, your home is beautiful, I love the fireplace on the porch, what a great idea.  I too experienced a fire, although it was not my home it was when I made a courageous move to open a gift store  called “My Friend’s Country Porch” after my first year of business my store burnt a couple days after I had left for a vacation in Maui. I was devestated, even thou I didn’t lose my home I lost alot of family antiques I used for displays, and alot of myself in that fire I poured my heart into that shop. I did reopen after 6 months and added a coffee shop.  I was open 7 years total but closed in 2004.  I am now a homehealth aide where I fill my heart taking care of people who need my help. Especially my 30 year old “boy” I call him who has severe CP and retardation. He is my buddy.  I have a plaque in my bathroom I read everyday ” A truth I’ve learned in passing years , significant, sublime…That  All life’s problems right themselves
    if only given time”
    Thanks for your blog I so look forward to reading it daily and catching up on what I missed!

  • Lori B.

    I found your blog last night via Adriane Dorr’s blog. I’m thrilled! If I hadn’t been so dang tired, I would have stayed up all night reading it. I’m an East Tennessee girl, now living in Middle Tennessee, who was raised Southern Baptist, who had given up on church, and almost on faith, until I met a good lookin’, sweet as pie, LCMS boy at the University of Tennessee in 1994. The pure, unadulterated – it is not about what I have done, but about what Christ has done for me – Gospel saved me! I’ve been a Lutheran ever since, and been married to that good lookin’ LCMS man since 1996. Thanks to him I have three beautiful blond haired, blue-eyed ‘babies’, the oldest of which just turned 11, and he’s almost as tall as me. His sisters are 8 and 5, and starting last year I became their teacher, at home, in our crazy house! Homeschooling has been the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I love it and how it has changed our family. I like to say that when I didn’t die enough to self after two kids, God gave me a third. And when I didn’t die enough to self after that, He made me a homeschool mom ;)

    Last summer I started studying more about theology and all things Lutheran. Since I started homeschooling my children last year using a Chatlotte Mason/Classical method, I’ve become much more interested in theology and traditional worship. Frankly, I don’t want to mess up when it comes to teaching them Bible. Everything is written from a Reformed point of view and I want them to know the true Gospel and not be shackled by works righteousness like I was for so long.

    So, enough about me. I just wanted you to know how excited I am to find your blog and to know that someone else out there, probably just a few hours from me (not exactly sure where you are in Tennessee) is an LCMS homeschool mom. Some days it feels like I’m the only one.
