My love of Pinterest...and my addiction...

Sooo...I'm thinking that I need to start this blogging thing and keep at it...Consistency is NOT my forte...but I think I'll give it a whirl.  I sit here, my 4th day with a fever, sick and miserable, can't sleep, and all I can do is PIN!!  I am 100% addicted to Pinterest...I adore it, I love it, I never want to leave it.  I'm not sure if a girl who gets distracted by sparkle should have 24 access to it though...yes, when I'm sick it's just fine...but come tomorrow when I really need to make up for the 4 days off from creating, it will NOT be good.  Maybe I should suspend activity from my phone??? Who am I kidding?!  I need it, I crave it, I LOVE it.  Truly...SOO, I am going to post some of my pics that I have been busy doing for the last yearish and pin on my board...then, since I vow to keep blogging, as I write about my days of creative blissfulness, I can post pictures as I go....so, this is kind of like my experiment to post my own pics...cuz I got nothing better to do than sit here all fevered and icky....here goes...

Just getting started...

Well, this is my first post and I have a LOT to learn! I don't really know where to begin...I started the day talking to my sister in Virginia who I miss so much! We decided together that we absolutely MUST stop this obsession with Halloween...not really gonna happen for either of us--but admitting we have a problem is half the battle, right? I mean, how many skulls can one girl have? I think my last count was 27...If I could find black crows out there, that would be my next thing, but sadly, I'm stuck with the 5 I have now. Who knew hanging bats from a chandelier could bring such joy to one's life?!

This week I've been doing some decorative painting--POLKA DOTS! I'm telling you, painting polka dots can really mess with your head! My 9 yr old client has minty green walls and I painted hot pink and brown spots all over the walls--FUN! The room came to life overnight. I love what color can do...my next job is big, fun, whimsical swirls of brown & gold on baby pink walls. A sassy room for a sweet little girl named Gi-Gi.

I hope to learn some tricks to this blogging thing...my creativity stops with a paint brush and decorating. I am not very computer savvy, but I love the thought of sharing ideas and thoughts with others who "get it"...
