Day 10

Create & Thrive's Month in the Life challenge, Inspiration. 

Inspiration can come from anywhere, spending time with family, spending time out doors, going for a walk, or a quiet moment. For me, my inspiration comes from several places.....

Color. It's everywhere and you see it in everything. You can even put colors together to make new colors. Fabric. You can make almost anything. Floss. You can stitch with any color, on any fabric, anywhere.

 My family. My husband works full time and is a college student. His hard work and dedication inspire me. My kids dreamy ideas and their fresh look on the world inspire me. My mom is not only my business partner, but also my teacher. She inspires me to create, craft, and to make anything and everything.

 I love this image. You can find it on all of our sites and our business card. It's so colorful, fun, and elegant. It fits exactly what we do, sewing, needlecrafts, and knitting.

Day 7

Create & Thrive's Month in the Life challenge, Packaging. 

Each of our creations are carefully packaged in tissue paper and wrapped like a present. They are then placed in a bubble wrap envelope or box depending on the creation. We want our customers to receive their order in a nice little package safe and secure.

Day 5

Create & Thrive's Month in the Life challenge, sketchbook.

I use a giant easel pad or copy paper as my sketchbook. If I plan on sketching out a drawing I'll use the easel pad. I love having a huge piece of paper in front of me to draw. If I get an idea and want to draw it out right away, I'll just grab copy paper and draw it out. Being a crafter  and homeschooling mom, I have paper everywhere.

If you open up the easel pad this is what you see. A lot of times, if I draw something I want to keep, I cut it out.
