So I haven't posted in ages. Not that I stopped creating, but momentum of life changed a bit and I began to forget the value of creation. At least for me. A wise friend of mine told me once that she observed such a change in me when I created. She said it acted much like therapy. Rather than disappearing, being mean, or becoming introverted when I needed a time out, I would simply put that energy into creating. And oh boy did I create....I've lost count on the things I've redone.
Well here it is, almost 2 years, actually since my last post. My life is changed. My kiddos have gotten older. My work is much much different than it was, less passionate than in years past for sure. I have learned to settle in being solo....not an easy task for me! But the constant rhythm, heartbeat if you will, is my need to make. I have helped countless friends with decor. I have decoupaged my way to Dixie and I have visited more thrift shops for makeshift pallets than most people visit the park. All on a quest to find passion. Love. Motivation. Peace. Direction. ME!
So, I will write again. Because the only thing that makes me feel better than MAKING stuff...is talking about it. It reminds me of value and hope and that when I set my mind to a goal, I can do anything. Challenge me. Call me out. Give me a design problem that seems unsolvable.
But most importantly, welcome me back. I've missed you!
XOXO,
The Redo Redhead
