If you're looking for perfection, you've come to the wrong website. Perfect...isn't my thing.

I'm impatient, I'm irreverent, I'm imperfect and I'm impetuous. I'm a saucy, sassy, smart and snarky woman of substance who isn't afraid to color outside of the lines, break the rules, sing at the top of my voice, Snoopy dance down the sidewalk, shimmy shimmy ko ko bop, shimmy shimmy bop or speak my mind freely and without fear. I call it as I see it and I tell it like it is and I'm perfectly capable of changing my mind when presented with compelling evidence and a convincing argument...or just because I can

 I'm here to inspire you to explore your creativity.  I'm here to entice you to roll up your sleeves and dig your fingers deep into some muckity, sparkly, glittery, gloopy, goopy, funky, fabulous crafty goodness.  You will break things, burn things, melt things, tear things, wreck things and repair things and you will emerge with something amazing.  What you will emerge with won't always be apparent, because we're here for the experience and not for the rewards.  Not everything you make will be a masterpiece and that's the point. 

I believe that creativity should be generously peppered with glorious mistakes.  I believe that even our most crappy creations have immense value.  Craptastic crafts are (to paraphrase the lovely Ms. Martha) a good thing.  They are the creative fertilizer in our crafty garden. Creativity is a wonderful adventure in the jungles of our imaginations and we shouldn't be too concerned about bringing along maps or GPS systems when we're hanging out with the muse.

The muse is amused when we allow for the possibility.

I'm living out loud and sharing that with you. 

Carpe gaudium, my friends.  Seize joy.
