Six weeks ago I was feeling reflective and nostalgic for the beach, tearfully saying goodbyes as we headed West to our new home here in the desert. And now, here we are, finally settled in and starting to venture back into normalcy again. At the same time, we are focusing on doing all the things that make a house a home: decorating, meeting new friends, continuing traditions and soaking up lots of family time. As I was feeling a little pang for “home” in Florida the other day, I was reminded afresh how “home” really (and truly) is where your heart is. And it is what we make of it. Love, and home, as it were, begins and ends with family. And so, I find myself feeling blessed to be home.
Speaking of “home”…I am so grateful for my time at After Five Designs and the opportunity to have worked with the women and talent there, but I have some really exciting news I can’t wait to share with you. As of Friday 5 November, I will be “repotting” Zinnias and Swallowtails — settling in and planting roots at a new “home”…my creative home.
Think you might know to where I may be “repotting”? planting roots? calling my “home”? Post your guesses in the comments section before 10pm PST tonight. Two lucky winners will win 3 products of their choice (except for collabs).
But wait! There’s more! In honor of perspective and blessings and settling in to home, I hope you’ll enjoy this freebie today!
And if it strikes your fancy, feel free to snag this little wee bonus freebie too, inspired by making home where your heart is.
And this is just the beginning of the fun! In addition to my big debut tomorrow (Friday), I have so many fabulous goodies to share with you this weekend, including several collaboration projects, a sale!, some Twitter giveaways, and a blog hop freebie (yes another one), so be sure to connect with me on Facebook and Twitter and sign up for my newsletter, if you haven’t already.
I hope that everyone has been well! Can’t wait to see your guesses!
