Learn | Tea Pea School
I feel like I’m a little bit of a serial learner. Whenever I hear about new courses my ears always prick up. Are you like that? Even better are courses or workshops that teach you how to do things that you’ve always wanted to do, just for the fun of it. You know the ones I’m talking about; shibori, kokedamas, cake decorating and hello – weaving!!!
Scheduling in some “me time”
I’m feeling so refreshed and focused. A little bit like I’ve come back from a holiday, only my “holiday” was simply a good dose of “me time”. It all goes back to my phone call with my coach Jaclyn last Tuesday. I had just received some inconvenient news that day (more of that another time) and I have a trillion things that I needed to get through, along with an enormous wish list of things I would like to do… She observed pretty quickly that I was feeling a rather overwhelmed and suggested that I take some time out.
FURNITURE BY DECADE | 1940’S
Furniture in the 1940’s was really getting exciting. It was so tough to decide on which items to put here… and to leave out the Eames DCW Plywood Dining Chair, not to mention Hans J. Wegner 512 or 501 or even the ESU (Eames Storage Unit)!!! Okay you might think I’m crazy but I figured, unless I chose, there would need to be a part two for Furniture in this decade. Here I’m covering the incredible diversity of styles and design of this era. Read about Furniture in the 1920’s here.
#styledcanvaschallenge | Breakfast in Bed
Ta dah! The #styledcanvaschallenge has officially begun and I can’t wait to see all of your “breakfast in bed” scenes that you’ve styled over the internet.
In case you’re wondering what on earth I’m talking about… I’m calling all budding stylists, Instagramers, bloggers and creatives to take part in a monthly styling challenge on their blog and/or Instagram. You can have fun honing your skills! Each mid month I will announce a theme for you to style the following month. There are some rules to keep it fresh though, so make sure you pop over to this post to read about it and see what it means for you.
