Our cousin, Bethany Joy, just celebrated her birthday. She has an adventurous spirit and a heart for service. Last summer she spent two months in Africa, and she loved it! I rolled with the African theme and made her the hanging block above. I think it will look very cute in her college dorm room!
African prints and patterns were my inspration...
My original intent was to paint a "B" for "Bethany" on her block, but when I was finished painting all of the patterns, I loved the way it looked as is.
I gave her a handmade African necklaces {similar to the one below} to tie the whole gift together. The necklace wasn't handmade by me, but by an African child.

Happy Birthday, Bethany Joy!
