Office Space via Driven by Decor~ leads me down a wonderful path



Pinterest is such a wonderful place for me to truly dwell in
possibility...and never feel like I've just 'wasted time'...time spent
dreaming and creating is never wasted.


Driven by Decor
is one of my favorite blogs.

Today's topic was her new plan for her
office space...and at the end of her blog, she asks for opinions on
curtains.

Perfect! My cousin had just pinned to our
shared board, "Sewing with Lisa and Tracy" curtains with a smocked top
made out of burlap! Gorgeous. Here is a link to a creative blog:

.our vintage home love: DIY Smocked Burlap Curtains:



So the success so far of my day is to blend 2 creative blogs into one wonderful vision!

Love days like this.

Cousin Envy + Admiration

Are you lucky enough to have  a cousin that can do anything and everything??
I am. My cousin Tracy is a few years younger than I am, but she teaches me something new every time I get to spend time with her.
A few of her accomplishments include re-wiring her old home, crafting beautiful new items from old windows, being a terrific seamstress (love her fleece socks),designing her new kitchen, being an all around creative genius , and a new shop owner in Iron Mountain Michigan. (Cuisine Art) all wrapped up in a really cool person who I just adore.
Anyway, since it's February and it's the month of LOVE,....I've decided to explain where I get some of my motivation to 'dwell in possibilities'...from my cousin Tracy....who does way more than just dwell. She does. And does it well.

Ground Hog Day


Living in Pennsylvania, Ground Hog Day is almost a holiday! People flock to this tiny town to see Punxsutawney Phil!!

The weather has been colder than normal, but I hesitate to wish for warmer weather, if it comes with gloomy, rain filled days.

At least in frigid temperatures, the bright white
snow and sunshine make each
day all the more tolerable!

January

January came and went......so did my mind! I don't remember creating just the title, but something must have been brewing in my mind to at least accomplish this first step. Does this happen to anyone else?
