I’m so excited to spend more time with my CREATIVE projects! I picked up Called to Be Creative: A Guide to Reigniting Your Creativity by Mary Potter Kenyon in a free little library recently. It turned out to be EXACTLY what I needed at this moment , as I’ve been really craving focused creativity. I thought this morning I’d do a desk corner refresh. I absolutely love this lovely area in my bedroom for writing, journaling, collaging, and pen pal-ing! 😍♥️✨
Cleared off! Tons of dust…*cough, cough 😷 😅Lovely bookends from a friend who is no longer in my life…bittersweet. 🥹♥️Starting soon my 4th Moleskine Daily Pocket Diary! I’m in love! 🥰 Little hutch to the side with 20 years of filled journals inside! 😻Little side hutch done ☑️! Cleaned and changed up! Reorganized! Poetry/writing/inspiration favs! Art work/memories from my children! BTS inspiration! Belle and Jemima Puddle Duck! My Haitian mother and baby statue that I got when I visited Haiti! 🥹♥️✨Yay! 😁 A pile of random papers to still tackle, but love a new fresh display! Winter-y cheer and hints of Christmas! 😍✨♥️🎄Love my inspo wall! 😍♥️Our current artist we are studying, Leonardo da Vinci print from our Charlotte Mason Homeschool Co Op! Some winter art from my sister and a penpal friend that I framed! My dala horse from my oldest son! 😍♥️😍♥️My hubby just got me that gorgeous tea pot at an auction! ♥️Lots of little Dutch things as that’s his family’s heritage and I absolutely adore it all.
Now I should be able to write and create amazing things, right?! 😉🤣♥️😍 Have you done any creative refresh’s lately? It’s so much fun! 🤩 Even though my house is still being remodeled, I can do little projects to make it better! I’m also buying a new comforter set for my bed and I’m so excited! 😆 It’s RED gingham! 😂😍♥️
Thank you for sharing this with us. I love hearing about the creative inspiration. I’ve been feeling that as well – to lean into all the quiet, cozy hobbies I have around me and don’t do nearly enough! You mentioned pen pals. Is your list long enough, or do you need another? 😊
I am thrilled that I have been able to get back into sewing these past few weeks. It is good for the soul. Your refresh looks lovely! I hope you have a great weekend!
I love your space! Such a creative woman! I am so happy you found my book and it inspired you. I am Mary Portzen now, remarried in 2021. My husband and I coordinate an annual Christian writers conference, and wrote a book together “Soul Mates: Path to a Praying Partnership.” I’d never done one before, but I created a junk journal for him for Christmas last year and enjoyed it so much, I made him another one for our 5th anniversary.
Aww, hello! 👋 Thank you! Your book is beautiful! I appreciate that you stretched yourself creatively with a big family and homeschooling. It’s encouraging! How wonderful and God’s blessings on your endeavors! ♥️
