:: and a partridge in a pear tree


Can you believe we are only 2 days away from Christmas Morning?

I just wanted to take a moment to slow down and wish
You a Very Very Merry Christmas!

This years color lights were inspired by a dear friend 
who's tree is truly a thing of holiday magic, 
with over 400 ornaments all numbered and cataloged. 

Talk about Christmas goals.

I would be doing good if I actually
brought out a quarter of my decorations these days.

Sadly, with grown children & no little ones {yet}...
the effort just doesn't seem worth it.

I am however loving our festive color lights this year, 
and I will never ever buy another pre lit tree...EVER.

Why????

Because... 

3-4 hours cutting off literal pounds of lights from your Christmas tree?

I mean you just have to do it at some point,
because adding more lights to your supposed pre lit tree 
just makes it nothing but a hot mess of wired chaos.

It was so worth it in the end.
A clean slate ready for those magical color lights

Now if only I had found some tinsel...

I would have the Christmas tree of my youth.


{ peace, love, hugs & no coal in your stockings }


HAPPY HOLIDAYS

:: life lemons and all ...













 

Hiya! 

Here I am yet again in this little space, 
feeling inspired and energized to get back to it.  

I've finally reopened my Etsy shoppe after way too long.  
It has been a lot of work, but it's been fun. 
I forgot what fun it is to spend time sharing things I love. 
I just jumped right back in and I'll be figuring things out as I go along. 

I thought today I would share my little lemon oil painting study, 
you know how the old saying goes 

" WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS" ... YOU PAINT THEM!!"

or make lemonade or some such thing.

I hope this little post finds everyone out there safe 
& healthy during these crazy times.

{ peace, love & hugs }

p.s.  if anyone knows how to get canvas images to not moire please please share, 
this is driving me crazy when I post images.
