Creativity.

Ever since I started teaching it has drained me dry of any type of creative thoughts I used to have. This has definitely been the most stressful, most exhausting jobs of I've ever worked. The past 7 months I have learned so much about teaching, running a classroom and even myself. I am FINALLY starting to feel the need to create my own work again, and even getting excited about it! I am so looking forward to this summer and crafting/creating in the office space Steven has created for me. But I'm getting ahead of myself. I'm just trying to  make it to Spring Break first! ( 2 1/2 weeks to go!)

I was hoping for another snow day today, but that didn't happen. Luckily I have my students well on their way on their projects, a couple of favorite blogs to search through and Pinterest for inspiration. (Don't judge, those high school kids can take care of themselves)

I'm ready to turn this blog into something that inspires me and others to get crafty and creative, to make a house a home, and to make something pretty or find something beautiful every day. I know this won't come until this summer, but I'm just glad I have a better direction and know where I want to go. Without some of the blogs I follow I would not have found the small glimpse of inspiration I needed to get back in my craft room and create something that's not part of an example for class.

So here's to creating beautiful things, lighter days, and warmer weather!
