🌿everything is popping out green & lush with the spring rains in our area. A walk in nature is the perfect place to find inspiration for fashion and our homes. Where Women Create is highlighting artists in this online summer series, here is one who’s ideas flourish this time of year.

📚recommended READ ~ I often follow my impulse to pick up the Where Women Create magazine at my local book or art store and am never disappointed. If you want to give your creativity a little boost add it to your summer reading collection.

✨Bold color, patterns, and textures are showing up everywhere… what do you think, is the trend for you?

“His life is his work and his work is his life,” notes Aerin Lauder, a close friend and associate. “You see that in his home, his love of pattern and package and texture; it translates into everything he does. He’s definitely more is more.”

Recommended WATCH ~ Beautiful, classic designs with attention to craftsman details. I also loved Jean Stoffer’s book The Established Home. Reading it was like reading my own story. She started her interior design career about the same time I did and we both worked around raising our families. The Lake Michigan design projects they complete remind me of many summers I spent in South Haven, MI on my dad’s boat. If you get the chance I hope you enjoy the show and find some inspiration for your own projects!

✨Good Morning!! I pray blessings will be flowing to all of you this holiday season! Time with family & friends, moments of reflection & rest on chilly winter days, and belief in a beautiful & bright future!! Sending LOVE & peace to all!!

✨This lovely fireplace display was designed by my friend & Trades of Hope Partner Krista. She used our retired Mandala Bell collection, but we do have a new collection that is still available.

✨Just a extra note, the founders surprised us this morning with another full day of FREE Shipping on orders over $40💛 💛💛 !!! (I missed out on emptying my cart on Monday, but I am grateful I have another day to get a few of my favorites!)

Meenal’s Story of Hope

Meenal is married with three daughters. She has worked as an Artisan in this workshop in her small village in northern India for the past two years. Her family is very supportive of her, as she continues to inspire more women in her area to begin working as Artisans and helping their families overcome poverty. During holidays, she often teaches weaving classes.
