Living One Day At A Time: A Bit of Creativity

Welcome to My Corner of the World

I hope you find humor, inspiration and something worthwhile on this blog. I plan to be as candid as possible. Life is hard. I know, I've overcome a lot (and still have a way to go).

It doesn't help others if the rough things are glossed over.

I will no doubt fill this blog with stories of my achievements as a mom as well as my personal struggles.

I have an incredible husband whom I call "my sanity." I have two great kids with strong personalities. I struggle with anxiety and depression and I have had a colorful childhood.

I also have an addiction to Gilmore Girls, A&W Cream Soda, and Starbucks peppermint mocha.
I have recently added biking to my list of hobbies and also love to read, knit, and play tennis.

Welcome to my little corner of the world!

A Bit of Creativity

I am naturally a creative person. In the past I've been so bogged down by emotional junk, that I haven't been able to accomplish much...or I would go through spurts where I was productive, shortly followed by being intimidated by projects.
I finished a project a few weeks ago, and true to my nature, I put off the finishing touches for a while (not avoiding it this time, just busy). I'm finally Almost finished (just waiting on The Hubby to hang it). So in honor of this momentous occasion (I may be exaggerating slightly ;) I thought I'd post pics.
One reason I'm so pleased with it is because I only had a picture I found on line (I'll post that, too) to go off of. No how-to instructions. No tutorial. Just a photo. And I'm happy with the outcome.
IF any of you beautiful readers would like a written tutorial for this (or any other project I post...because I plan to post loads now that I'm so productive!), let me know and I'll do my best to put one together.
I have another project to work on, and will be excited to share it with you when it's done. But it may be a bit time consuming....

This one is the image I found on line.
