It's a Turquoise Thing.

Turquoise is one of my favorite colors used as an accent. You can almost hear it POP!
It's a color that makes me so Happy. Enjoy, Heidi

Wisdom for 2010.

This one goes in dream house file.

So much growth has happened to me in 2009 (lots of inner and a little outer) that I thought I would share with you all some of the lessons I have learned.


1. Stay in the NOW. You can't fix anything in the past and they still haven't made time travel available yet, so all you really have is Right Now. Doing this has cut in on my day dreaming, but made my family life is much more fulfilling.

2. Get more sleep. If I get plenty of sleep at night, I can handle almost anything the next day.

3. Nurture the positive and supportive relationships in your life. Rid yourself of the toxic ones.

4. Don't make assumptions. This one is hard but it is good because to assume is to make ass u me.... ASSUME.

5. Be impeccable with your word. This means not only to avoid saying toxic things about others but also about yourself.

6. Always do your best. Then you can live without regret. No regrets, see no.1.

7. Don't take things personally. One word here: Projection.

8. Stop watching the News. If there is something really big that you need to know about, don't worry, someone will tell you. Living in a state of fear is one tactic used to control people.

9. Make a decision. You can either do something about it or you can accept. My husband likes the phrase, " Shit or get off the pot".
( sorry, I couldn't resist)

10. Don't take life so seriously. Laughter is the best medicine.
Enjoy, Heidi

Bank Installation



These are a couple of photos from an installation we did in the lobby of a bank. The first photo is the mock-up in our studio and the second photo is in the bank lobby. There are a lot of fluorescent lights over head that washes out much of the color. I think they are gonna install some nice spots to shine on it. That will really make the color pop! It was kinda dark in there when took the photo and the photo didn't turn out as well as when we get good lighting on it. We finished the install the first week of December, (I think).

Happy New Year!!!!!!!

I had a great and crazy year in blog world and in my real world. Tonight there will be Champers, Smores, Sparklers and Kissing. Next year there will be big changes for me and my family. I know what you are all thinking, AUSTRALIA!!! Sorry, but it looks like that dream will be put on hold for now. Hubby's future new job is looking more promising and it also looks like I have a promising buyer for my Shop/Home. This means getting all ducks in a row, moving somewhere and maybe an addition to our family.
That is plan A. Plan B is, sell it all and move Down Under.
Life is what happens when you are busy making plans.
I wish you all a safe and Happy New Year. Love Ya, Heidi
