I feel like today is a new beginning.
I made some decisions, while on vacation, that I feel good about.
Fall is in the air this morning...I love fall, cool mornings, sunny days...aaaah.
The biggest decision I made was to not teach painting classes any more.
My heart isn't "in" it any more.
You my blogging friends are such a huge part of my life now.
I want to move on, move forward, do what I love doing.
I have bottles that I'm still working on which I cant wait to share.
I have cups, spoons, silver and glass that are waiting for birds.
I see all the pictures of "creative spaces" I want to get in my craft room, organize it into "stations" so I can be more creative...
This morning I feel energized and ready to get started.
I finished this gal last night. Hope you like her.
I also was accepted into the Lollishop group...yeh!

Hi Laurie...your newest birdie is just darling.
It is so hard to make decisions like that...I have been there...but I always say, when one door closes, another one opens.
Have fun creating...
Hugs, Nancy
Hello,
I LOVE your new little bird on the spoon. Do you sell them, not like on ebay, just out right to bloggers? It's always a relief when you make a decision and then go forward. I too, want to get my craft room done. If you come and visit I did a post on it..it needs SO much work and I hope to get some of it done this winter.

Hi Laurie,
Thanks so much for the visit! I have to tell you your little birdies are adorable, I love them, and yor paintings are beautiful! Wish I could do that. You are so talented.

Hi Laurie, So glad you like the giveaway gifts. I know too well what you mean about regrouping your life. I also taught decorative painting and it takes a lot of time. I loved it, but it was all consuming. Love your sweet birdie. Enjoy your new direction.
Blessings,

It is important to do what you love especially if your heart isn't in the teaching painting anymore. May you achieve your goals you make with this new decision! It sounds like it may open up time for more wonderful things for you! Congrats on being in the Lollyshop group, I'm not surprised your art just seems to fit right in with all the cute things they make.
Hi Laurie,
Now that you have set your feet in a different direction watch for all the new tiny miracles along your path. I am excited to hear about your new adventures :c}
Fall also has been a time for directional changes for me. This fall I decided to join you all in Bloglandia. Shall I let you know when I get there??
