Recently, I have been focusing on my health, inner peace, and happiness. A tonic of apple cider vinegar and local honey has become a part of my morning routine. Evenings include taking a natural, detoxicating tea and a concerted effort to get the sleep I need. The future will hold more habits to adopt as I actively participate in my own well-being.
On this day, I shifted focus, spending time in my studio or what was my studio. I toiled through the cleaning, sorting, and ridding of clutter that had accumulated over the past year or dare I say it…LONGER. I really wanted to play, having great ambitions to clear enough space to satiate my need to create. Did I create? Well, not in the sense that could be described as producing masterful works of art. However, space was created and many ideas developed to make it a more efficient environment for creative endeavors.
So, here I am at the end of the day, gathering my thoughts to share with you. The pictures with this post show two ornaments that were made for my youngest grandchildren. The flip side of each documented their name and birth statistics. See the spiral action going on here? I was rather pleased with the personalization on these and know that they will be treasured for years to come.
I’m off to play at 9:30 pm and oh yes, that cup of tea will accompany me. My advice? Play hard and play often, it can only do you good!
