Happiness Visualized

Create Happiness Print by Earmark

A Holiday week always brings me a little more inspiration than others because my sensory levels are peaked with colors, decorations, excitement and anticipation. I was loving the color red for obvious reasons (Valentine’s Day), baked goods, music, and friends. I went to my dad’s bakery this week and baked a huge cookie cake for Valentine’s Day and I must say, it was so yummy! But the week hasn’t been all filled with excitement, it has also been riddled with a few bumps in the road including writing my book and career choices that I will go into another time. I might make a perfect cookie cake but I don’t claim to be perfect and I will never pretend to be on my blog.  When I can better understand my bumps in the road and choices that lay in front of me, I will then share them and the insight I have gained. But for now, I will focus on staying in the moment and doing the best I can right now. I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the week and an even better weekend. Truly grateful to my online community!

How Joyful Print

My love for inspirational prints has never been a secret nor has my love for fun and free DIY printables. I thought I could combine both and share with you some beautiful free prints below today. If you were needing some inspiration for a new endeavor your beginning, or just for some great artwork to hang on your walls, why not start with one of these to frame and place in an area of your home or office! Check out the links below to these great blogs for more prints {including colors} and also Everything Etsy and Kind Over Matter as a great resource to more!  (more…)

Be the Quote!

Wednesday, February 9th, 2011

For me, this year has been about renewal of creativity! With my day job, writing my book, this blog, and the other everyday craziness, it has been very busy thus far! With that said, I have been becoming very aware of my surroundings and what brings me inspiration. With what does not attribute to inspiration or in other words, positivity, I have been slowly but surely getting rid of. I think sometimes aesthetics definitely attribute to your well being. When you surround yourself around the things and people you love, you will inevitably feel uplifted. I know, I know, I just sounded very self-help like, but it’s true!

I have recently started planning my personal work space to be more of who I am and include things that only help to inspire me. As much as I have been hoarding letterpress pieces and other fun pieces like a marionette my boyfriend surprised me with (I will be posting on it shortly!), I have really been interested in a few inspirational quote prints. When I say inspirational prints, I am not discussing the huge pictures in stark, cold, and rigid offices that say, “SUCCESS” or “ACTION”. I really hate those! I am describing beautiful prints that I would want anyways, but with quotes that I could really relate with and still don’t take away from the image itself.

I own the Let Go print but I just love the one below (hint, hint anyone?). I’m attracted to the colors and whimsical elements of her pieces.

Raw Art Letterpress

I have discussed this studio previously with their postcards. I love the saying, “Let yourself be wrong”. Just showing you to overlook your fear and try your passion.
