Happy New Year!!!


OK...So I may be a few weeks late.
But my motto in life right now is seriously, better late than never.
So today I say happy new year and let's get this party started, shall we?

As I continue to orient myself with the new year a couple of things are in the works.
I make a couple of growth goals.
I reset some reading plans.
I re-dedicate space and time to my brand and the stories I want to share with you my readers.
AND...
I take down the old, (read Christmas decorations) and ring in the new, (read fresh start with fresh work space decor.)

Heidi Swapp recently released a new set of kits over at JoAnn Stores. This beautiful collection includes new albums, washi tapes, desk accessories and even this glittery banner kit.

The Heidi Swapp Banner Love Kit is actually a pretty rose gold...but my camera picked it up as gold here.

This kit includes 64 letters plus tassel and string to create any worded banner one desires.
It's part of the Handmade Collection at JoAnn and pairs beautifully with the other boxed kits.
This banner kit makes an oh so perfect gift! or...change up your work space and make it pretty as well as inspiring all with one little o' banner.

I think our work spaces can tell a story or can challenge a story to be told.

Admittedly, when I am in the midst of projects and deadlines, it can look like the papers and embellishments are literally flying around here. It can be a hot mess when I am done. But I like to get it all cleaned up after the intensive creative event. I like to walk down to my studio every morning with a fresh start and at least one clean surface so that there is not clutter resistance. But rather a place to start again.

I love the idea of this word TODAY hanging on my frame in my work space...
it's a challenge to remind me that
today is the day.
Today can be what I make it.
Today is a fresh start.
Today's choices determine tomorrow's outcome.
It's up to me.

And I love this fresh newly designed space with all the extra Heidi Handmade Collection to greet me and get me on my way.

Everyday can be a new year. A new day. A new start. Today. Today is the day. Make it pretty. Write the story that is today. And remember: better late than never.
