What is a journey?
A journey is not a trip…. It’s not a vacation.
It’s a process. A discovery
It’s a process of Self-discovery.
A Journey brings us face to face with ourselves.
A journey shows us not only the world, but how we fit in it.
Does the person create the journey or does the journey create the person ?
The journey is life itself.
Where will life take you?

This is one of my favorite quotes. Want to guess the first time I heard it and saw it? At the Lido Movie theaters about to see "bra boys".
so here i go again....
i have created this blog as an attempt to find my creative way again. after owning a flower shop at the age of 21 thinking that was what my life's calling was. i now find myself 5 years later, engaged to the most amazing man, living in australia, finished interior design school and still feeling ...LOST! Creatively and inspirationally that is. I feel as if all the other puzzle pieces are in place except for the one...
i am inspired by everything and almost anything...from fashion to history to colour to nature. i love finding treasures on the side of the road [one of my favourites was an old trunk probably dated back to the because 40's with all of the treasures i found in it! that became my coffee table when living in california...i miss it] i love painting, drawing, taking pictures, rearranging furniture, puzzles, kittens and cats, the ocean, the sand, my family and friends...the list is practically endless....
with all of that said here i am today...i just graduated from Sydney Design School in december. i went back and took an advanced colour course with my favourite teacher/mentor/owner of colour dot...Di Swinborn...she recommended me to a designer from LA she met here in sydney while she was giving a lecture...well long story short...i am now going to intern with this designer [ name TBA] in september for a little over a month before i get married. but with all of this exciting stuff happening...like i already said i feel lost. i do believe that we create ourselves rather than find ourselves...so i am not feeling like i need to find myself...i am feeling like i need to find my way again... a HEAP [aussie for ALOT] of big changes have gone on in the last couple years and i am a little all over the place in my head...
so with this blog i plan on doing one creative thing a week...anything from painting and fixing up furniture to creating resin jewelry...i will interview inspirational creatives...give you sneak peaks of some of our wedding inspirations...take you on home tours...provide you with before and after pictures...
i will take you on a little creative journey...
please feel free to comment, email, call, fax, send a letter via snail mail..
