Journey towards...
Aw.. I love all things creative! I seriously can't wait for a new day to see what cool things I might see, a new friend I might meet, a new adventure that I might do, a new food that I might try...the list is truly endless...my newest thing that I am trying is yoga, and let me tell you, this is an exciting adventure! I've been trying power yoga which is set to a heat of 85-90 degrees. It exhilirating to see these fellow women doing poses that are soo hard! I do not feel intimidated, I just feel excited, because one day I will be doing those same poses! I love that it's a long class, hard, centering and calm. I've been searching for a new exercise program, a program that would fit me... I've run 2 half marathons and thought running was my thing, but I never was truly as happy as all those other runners! I love running a 5K, and I will continue to run for cardio. I'm still debating on doing my 3rd half marathon, which I've already signed up for....hmmm. What kind of exercise makes you happy? Because I feel that if you truly aren't happy doing it, why do it? Until next time, Love...

"Birds on Board" for that skinny space
Building houses can have a few advantages...such as leftover "trim."Voila!! Birds on board were invented! Canvas can be expensive and well I needed to save on costs and I wanted to set myself apart....I started selling these at a local market here in Chattanooga that has incredibly creative people selling there wares...My husband came up with the fence idea, so I can't take credit for that ingenious idea. It's been great for displaying these fun whimsical birds! These are priced at $55 a piece and I can't wait to come up with my spring line..If you want to custom order one, just email me..great for a wedding gift, birthday present. Add some whimsy to your life.
Happy little blocks...
Using wood that I guess would end up in a corner of the garage or gasp..the dump..I have talked my husband into helping me transform plain ole wood into little blocks of inspiration! Well I don't just get to sit and create I have to go to the garage where he's cutting and observe so one day I can do it all on my own..Hmmm? why would I want to do that? But I go along with the pretense! These blocks are truly fun to make and I never know how each one will turn out or what I'm going for..What do you think? They are only $15 and make such fun gifts for anyone special in your life!
