I’ve written this blog for over 2 years now. So many mile stone’s have been reached in those short 24 months. I reached my goal of weight loss, I’ve added 2 new grand daughters to my family, added a daughter in law, opened a store front for Blue Happy projects and next week a new mile stone I never thought I would ever see. A few months back I received a texted telling me about a sister I had never...

I love to recreate things into something it wasn’t meant to be. It gives me that high all artist look for when doing a piece. Lately I’ve been sketching a lot and most of those things are a bit odd. I have big plans for an old wood ironing board, dreams for connecting an old metal parts cabinet to a small breakfast table and oddly enough I’m still dreaming about a pile of furniture that only parts can be saved....

I heard her mention it before but really didn’t pay attention to it, but now I was noticing a difference in the way she felt and the way Ethan was feeling....

Months ago I removed the stools from my kitchen because they were so dangerous. They were way to tall and often people who visited would fall over. My kitchen has hard tile floors. When my grandson fell over and hit his head that was it. The stools were really tall with a base that was too small. So when you would sit on them they toppled over easy. I didn’t want to trash them so I turned them into other...

FEAR

blue happy, Faith, Fear, honest, Restored Life

We all have it, a fear of something that we aren’t sure why but it’s so real. I have a few and by a few I mean many things. I don’t like dark water because I can’t see what is around me. I don’t like the dark for the same reason. I don’t like lose teeth. Yes I know I’m a teacher. My students are warned and they respectfully go to see Mrs. Vickie at the front desk. I don’t...

I am a creative with a vintage soul and a happy heart. Just as I set out with a new purpose to restore my life 5 years ago, I try to find the beauty in beaten up and forgotten pieces for the home.
