Hey guys! Sorry I’ve been absent here on the blog the last couple of days. My life is a bit crazy at the moment due to some factors, all good, that I have no control over (I’ll explain when I can)!
It rained here on Sunday so I took the day to sit at my desk and get stuff done. With a long list of to-do’s, I started the day reading a few inspiring quotes that helped me get focused on what I needed to accomplish. Reading inspirational quotes is one way that I fuel my soul and remind myself that I am my own champion.
The power of self-talk is a tremendous gift that we can give ourselves so as you start off the week, take a little time to read some quotes and fuel your soul.
p.s. My Words to Inspire pinterest board is filled with over 1300 quotes waiting to inspire you!

In case you’re wondering what’s on my to-do list, here a look at some things I’ve got going on:
This coming saturday is the non-profit fundraising event that I am the chair of, and that means lots of spray painting and flower arranging is going on in the garage.

I’m also working on flushing out my holiday decor theme and a list of projects I want to complete (cause Christmas will be here in a flash–only 73 days away)! This is what I’m thinking…
Handpaited ornaments
and giftwrapping in gold and white
I’m working on two holiday design workshops I’ll be hosting at a local home decor and gift store near Atlanta next month.
It always feels good when I take that time to organize and plan for the week ahead.
Hoping you all had a great weekend and that good things come your way in the week ahead!
I love the handpainted ornaments, Shelly! Thank you for reminding me that Christmas is so close. I work at the speed of a snail so I really need to get on it! I wish I was closer to Atlanta, I live east of Birmingham. I’d love to come to your workshop! I know whatever you do will be gorgeous. Now if you’ll excuse me I’m off to your Pinterest board.
Hi Dana,
I’m over in Birmingham often to visit family and shop the Birmingham flea market. The next time I come your way I’ll give you a shout out and maybe we can meet in person.
p.s. You can see my workshop presentations on the Smith’s Facebook page…search SmithstheStore and look under event.

I’d love that, Shelly! My schedule is pretty open and meeting you? That would make my day, month, year! I’m on my way now to check out the Smith’s FB page.
oh, I really needed to read the inspiration words today! Thank you Shelly. Also, would you mind sharing where you found the white and gold paper please?
Hi Cindy,
So glad you foudn the quotes in todays post inspiring. And, the polka dot gift wrap is available from Paper Source and you can purchase it via their website. I believe it was listed under Christmas gift wrap.
All the best,
Shelly
