White Wednesday...

As you know,
since we decided to move,
shopping is a No-No around here.
Even a very strict rule has been implemented:
if 1 new thing comes in
4 old things have to come out.


Well, I need 4 old things to say good bye to,
because I just couldn't resist this pretty bag
from Janet at Flora Doora!

Her cute, cute bags are lined in plastic perfect to hold fresh flowers...

Jane's motto is:
"Spreading happiness one bag at the time"

She sure was successful this time,
I smile every time I walk by mine...

Hope this day brings you enough reason to smile!
Happy White Wednesday!

Monday Morning....

Busy weekend we had...

Weekend is over.
We rested, we ate, we had fun.

Monday Morning rolls along...
Early alarm goes off.
Husband goes to work.
Children go to school

and now it's time for me and my crafts...


It's also time for a little song....

Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' crafting all of the time

Monday Monday, ...

I'm dancing my way to my working table, hope you do too!
Have a creative week!!

Today.

We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia,
and everyone seems to think yesterday was better than today.

I don't think it was,
and I would advise you not to wait ten years before admitting today was great.

If you're hung up on nostalgia,
pretend today is yesterday and just go out and have one hell of a time.

Wishing you a creative week!

Happy Monday!

Sometimes,
all you need is a little embellishment to make the pretty even prettier...

And sometimes just rescuing a vintage treasure makes the trick...

Have a creative and immensely inspiring week!

Happy Monday!

Mondays always mark beginnings:
the first day of the working week,
the first day of school,
the first day of our diet!
But today is a very special Monday:
today it's the last Monday of 2009!

We found these words by the Brazilian author Paulo Coelho and decided to share them with you. Make of this Special Monday everything you'd like it to be,
a day full of hope and possibilities,
a day full of renewed energy that will last the whole 2010!

"It is always a need to know when a stage in life is over. If you insist in remaining in it, more than the necessary time, you lose the happiness and sense of the rest....Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience....The only way to save our dreams is by being generous to ourselves....If you have a past with which you feel dissatisfied, then forget it, now. Imagine a new story for your life and believe in it. Focus only on the moments when you achieved what you desired, and that strength will help you get what you want....When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it."

- Paulo Coelho -

Happy Monday!

Why wait for the weekend to have fun?
