Today, I was bummed out and feeling down. It can be difficult to come up with something creative when your stressed about your life, but after sulking for a while, I decided to make a project that is cheerful. The frame was .69 at a thrift store and the felt I always have laying around. This project has been in my head for a while now and tonight seems as good a time as any. The frame was painted a few weeks ago, but the right word had not come to me yet. I figured it out this afternoon. It was smile! I cut out the letters and blanket stitched it all together then looped the felt thought the frame and sewed it together. I think it will hang in my bathroom right by the mirror as a reminder everyday. Here are few quotes that hopefully will make you smile ---A laugh is a smile that bursts - Mary H Waldrip ---All you need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt - Charles M Schultz (my childhood idol)...
I accomplished a years worth of creativity on a budget. Now this blog is just for all of my creative outlets. My creativity involves a lot of craft projects, artwork and a few odds and ends.
