see you back here soon ;)
Reading
i now have this growing pile
of more wonderful books
i can't wait to read...
i'm off to Switzerland tomorrow
and determined to travel light
(at least one way...)
the pile of books might have to wait!
Feminine inspiration
it feels like i have just come out of a huge journey...
i've just finished reading
The Forty Rules of Love by Elif Shafak.
i knew nothing about the story or the author
before i started, my best way to get into a book.
the story was rich, wise, inspiring and exotic.
here is a wonderful review by Donna
and then i research the author... oh wow!
see her in a TED talk here
"I thank you for showing me, a nomadic soul,
that is was possible to settle down in one place and
still be free."
Powerful...
Spoilt
look,
my camera collection is growing!!!
i got spoilt with a Fuji Instax 210
instant camera...
what a treat
to see and hear the pic popping out!
so many memories ;)
Trip
mon Amour took me away for a
surprise birthday getaway to Kosi Bay
this weekend!
quality time, nature, gifts, good food...
totally spoilt!
Treat
i'm part of a little group of "powerhouse" women
and
at the moment we are doing Julia Cameron's Artist's Way
program together.
on tuesday it was my turn to host
welcome by Kelly Rae Roberts
we ate, chatted, shared, danced and collaged up a storm
what a treat!!!
Thanks Girls xxx
Inspiration
building site inspiration...
there is a building site next door
and
i've been admiring the raw cement, the colours, the textures.
the blue, the yellow, the browns,
the skills...
News from the studio
ok so there's been some big things happening around here...
well at least it's big for me ;)
i have COMMITTED to a booth at
the local Christmas Fair!
so i'm totally excited about it and at the same
time totally freaked out...
i'm moving between planning, dreaming and doing
and
doubting, having nightmares and being stuck...
i've raided the fabric shop for supplies,
and i have been taking little turtle steps every day...
to be continued...
