Awhile back I mentioned my excitement for Warby Parker’s Home Try-On program. It’s a fun and low-risk way to test out new frames. I created a video to share my try-on frames with you. It’s my first-ever and there’s a serious glare, but I thought it would be a fun way to share my specs…
Hello friends, happy Wednesday to you! I hosted a Sparkle Swap in September, with the hopes of bringing cheer to fellow bloggers. 25 participants signed up to send 4 unique gifts — a bit of sparkle, a treat that soothes, something sweet, and a surprise. After delays, international shipping issues and general pre-holiday mayhem, I am finally getting around to sharing a recap post…
Swaps are popular within the creative blogging community, especially this time of year.

Collecting dreams the way some gather seashells…

I love to search the internet for creative resources. It’s one of the activities that drew me to blogging in the first place. On its best days, the internet is like an enchanted forest filled with magic, fairy dust and tons of inspiration. Recently, I started following a fresh set of blogs…
Taking a blogcation last week provided time to reflect on what has me inspired lately. While away, I also realized how much I truly enjoy posting on a regular basis. I feel connected, energized and creatively inspired. It’s a challenge, but it’s worth it…
Take a moment to breathe deep. Smile through a challenging situation. Know that you can overcome your fears. Recognize the remarkable brillance that only you possess. Consider the ideal outcome for today…
Hello friends! I have missed you dearly these last few days. Work has picked up to warp speed, which is a challenge I’m grateful to face these days.

Know that I’m quietly sending you vibes of love…
