Mess and Paint

I have been trying to be creative. Because being creative is what I enjoy.

But there is always so much work to do that I don't feel completely comfortable taking the time to be creative.

I've made progress with my mess, but there always seems to be another box to go through and another pile of papers to sort. I really mean it when I say I'm going through everything this year.

I am just wondering when it's going to start looking like I'm making progress.

I wanted to do a Garage Sale already, but the neighborhood we moved into only allows them when it's a neighborhood wide sale, otherwise I have to apply for a permit . . . wasn't happy about that one.

So, my garage is filling up, waiting.

I have this strange system that seems to be working. I accomplish a little of my mess and then fit in some time to be creative.

Do first, play after.

Right now it's been . . . box, paint, box, paint, box, paint.

My hope that someday in the near future it'll just be paint, paint, paint, paint, paint : )

I thought I'd share what I'll been playing around with.

I love Pinterest and all the wonderful quotes and sayings . . . and I'm a "I can do that" kind of person.

This one is still in the works.


And this one I've only done the background color . . . peacock inspired for the girls room.


I really enjoy making them. I've made a few others for family too : )


And I have a couple more in the planning stages.

With five kids . . . this is the closest I can get to Graphic Design right now.

Now, back to my mess  ; )
