I can’t believe we are about to start another new year. What do you all do for New Year’s eve? Do you have any special traditions? True confession- New Year’s Eve always depressed me and I have never really liked it. I guess it is partly all the hype of it being about these big fabulous parties that you are supposed to ring the new year in with. That and the general melancholy of saying goodbye to another year (and sometimes the people that went with it). It seems like there is so much pressure to ring in the new year in some fabulous way, yet we never did. (The bottom of this post will have some inspiration, so bear with me.) New Year’s as a Child Growing up, … Continue Reading →

Have you all had a good holiday season ? I hope so! I’m posting this a little late, as I started writing it Christmas Eve, but fell asleep. A peek into my holiday this year though.. It’s after midnight on Christmas eve and I am about to go to bed. I have been sitting here in the cozy garden room with the candles glowing, the colored lights lit up on Matt’s bachelorhood dollar store tree, the nostalgic toys and ornaments I’ve saved my entire life (that are from Christmases past when I was a child), a cup of peppermint tea and 2 kitties on my lap. I just finished watching one of my favorite holiday movies, “White Christmas”, with Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney. I had a wonderful Christmas eve. … Continue Reading →

Yay! It’s here! Today I am sharing the link to my ETSY store with you all so you can check it out. I am SO excited! There are 2 things going on in my store this month to celebrate its launch. First is that there is a coupon code for 10% off your order and it is good until December 31, 2016 (the code is LAUNCH10). The second thing is that I am doing a 12 days of Christmas sale, where each day I knock more money off ONE item (the art creation of the day) for a 24 hour flash sale. Today is the 7th day of Christmas, so I know I am posting this a little late (I’ve been a very busy little fairy elf). Because of that, … Continue Reading →

Hi Everyone! I am FINALLY writing to announce what the heck I’ve been secretly up to this year and also sharing with you what that means as far as what my subscribers can expect now from this blog. I have so many hopes, dreams, passions, interests, and We Live Inspired has been an inspiring playground for me (and hopefully for those along on this ride with me) since I started it on a whim a few years ago. The very first blog posts here were about animals, my documentations of the feral cat colony that appeared off our backyard, and our efforts to share their stories as I worked to help the situation. I also blogged a lot of inspirational articles on ways I live inspired no matter what life … Continue Reading →
