My Souls Cry to Create: DIY Painted Mug

July 21, 2015 by Inspired by Family Mag

It's interesting what my heart and soul gravitates to when I'm searching for something more. When I'm seeking rest. When I'm needing to process. When I've found peace, love and comfort and I'm needing to express it. I'm pulled towards my souls inner craving--no it's not chocolate. Though some days you can find me curled up with a jar of nutella and a cup of tea. I begin my hungry stricken search looking for blank canvases.  Everything and anything around me has the possibility of … [Read more...]

Gingerbread Man Theme Christmas Tree

December 6, 2014 by Inspired by Family Mag

Do you have a Christmas tree tradition?  Do you cut your own?  Decorate together?  I love the scent of a fresh tree so our tradition has always been to either cut our own or pick out a fresh tree.  Here in this picture we are bringing it home. It's taller than my 6.2 hubby.  I was pretty proud of myself because I got them to go down on the price from $55 to $35.  Nothing like wheeling and dealing! I started decorating for Christmas early this year, but it's still in process because I have … [Read more...]

Cinnamon Salt Dough Ornaments

These nostalgic aromas remind me to share my … [Read more...]
