14 Things That Are Giving Me Life Right Now
I really enjoy making lists or saving pictures of everything that is inspiring or “giving me life” every month. I even tear out magazine pages and keep them for inspiration. It helps me so much in my business and in my personal life to stay creative by looking at beautiful things and reading about their creators or makers.
The 23 Best Summer Nails
Summertime…..and the living is easy. I like to have fun with my manicures and pedicures in the Summer, don’t you? I feel like colored nails and nail design is such a creative way of expressing yourself. Even if you’re conservative in your dress or you’re not into patterns, you can have all the fun on your nails. This summer there’s a million ways to express yourself on your nails from colors, to designs and even the shape of your nails.
Modern Flintstone is a Design Style Y’all
Flintstones, meet the Flintstones…I could sing this whole song from memory. This was one of my favorite shows when I was a young child so this design style really resonates with me. I know you’re saying “what the heck is Modern Flintstone and it isn’t a Design Style”, but hear me out. There’s definitely a certain aesthetic that’s trending now that made me think of what Fred’s house would look like in modern times. Lots of stone that makes you literally think of the Stone Age; mostly round and curvy shapes and pale or neutral colors. It’s like a combination of Modern Organic and Japandi with natural materials in the forefront. Also, I’ve rarely seen any electronics out in the open.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
