My Happy Place

Inspiration finds me anywhere, but it most often finds me at my happy place - our family cabin.















I can't wait to enjoy my happy place this weekend and hopfully get inspiration for some new projects. Here are some more pictures of my happy place.




And of course.....one of my favorites with some of my favorite people that inspire me everyday!



Enjoy your happy place!

PAINT - my new obsession!

Paint can transform anything! This probably isn't news breaking for you, but for me my imagination and creativity has been hightened with the help of that little bucket of color. I accomplished two simple tasks this past weekend: painted our interior door to match our wall color and painted the base of an end table. It wasn't much, but the results are spectacular (well, at least to me!).  Paint has now become my new obsession....

So what's next? I am thinking my little man's bed (Ikea's Kura bed, shown below). Chalkboard paint, perhaps? You will have to wait and see......



Have an idea? Share! Two creative minds are always better than one...

Welcome!

Welcome to me! Since this is my first and likely do not have any followers at this point, I will welcome myself to the world of blogging. Why blog? I don't know....isn't everyone blogging these days?

Really, I just need a creative outlet. I love photography, I love home improvement projects, I love crafty projects.....so why not share my artistic outlets and hopefully inspire others.

Sure, there will be a few posts of my kids, dogs, vacations, family, friends, etc - my blog is called a little bit of me and there wouldn't be me without all those things in my life!
