  • Are you familiar with Days for Girls? If you’re not, you need to be! Go to Daysforgils.org and watch some of the videos. Your heart will never be the same. .
Last weekend I had the chance to go to the regional conference and it was inspiring and amazing on every level.  It’s such a meaningful charity that helps girls and women all around the globe. My friend Connie and I started a local team last summer and it’s just starting to hit its stride. So we were totally fan-girling when got to spend time with the CEO, Celeste Mergens.

  • Today would have been my grandmother Hildegard’s 100th birthday. She was born an only child in Vienna, Austria but came to America shortly before WWII began in Europe. She went on to have 10 kids and a bajillion grandchildren and great-grandchildren. .

She died when I was a toddler and I have no memories of her. But I was given the gift of her name which is something I cherish above nearly everything else.
.
Happy birthday in Heaven, grandma!

Medium Plastic Storage Bin w/ handles combined with the 4” Drawer Dividers (customizable to any length. I photographed my 2” dividers, but I used the 4” ones which are better in a taller container), all from @thecontainerstore. #containyourself #getorganized #clifbars #kindbars
  • I’ve got a new palette, new watercolors and my favorite brushes. Excited to delve back into a medium that I’ve neglected for too long. @rosemarybrushes #watercolors #creativelife
  • I’m making a scrumptious Christmas soap this afternoon.  This one’s for you @carrielu1 !
  • My quest to learn all the things about all the things continues. #neverstoplearning
