Hooray for a sunny winter day!

Blogging is so freeing for some reason.  I'm subscribed to some other blogs, although none are art themed, and just took a moment to scroll through them to see if my interests had changed.  It's almost magical to be allowed into someone else's life that you don't even know or to read about others life experiences.  It's inspiring and heartwarming and refreshing and educational all at once.  Probably my favorite blog to read is Kelle Hampton's.  She's a photographer, but also a mother of two girls.  She's always sharing her family's adventures, and the images she includes cause my imagination to ignite; like, today, I want to completely transform my office/studio into my art pad with no limitations because something about her photos and words made me feel that way.  Suffering from a cold and still needing an office space will prevent that from happening, but for now, just knowing that's a possibility at some point makes me smile.  It's something to look forward to, and anything regarding creativity really gets my blood pumping.  In the meantime, I'm going to email my mom about repurposing some of the vintage costume jewelry we have from grandmothers and great grandmothers, and continue to do small scale rearranging in my studio.  Once I have things where I want them in here, I can buy the sewing machine I keep talking about.  :)
