New Halloween Plan

So, for various reasons I've completely changed my Halloween costume. I've decided on something a little darker but still pretty with Neil Gaiman's Death. I've been working through the comics (slowly because they scare me at times) and really loving the Endless characters.



My Mom is working on it now (yeah, I'm spoiled).

Lazy Sunday

I love a good lazy Sunday. Today I slept in until 1pm, got my hair cut, hung out at Chapters and talked about life with my boyfriend. It was lovely.

While at Chapters I got to buy some books to help me start some creative projects. I picked up Simply Sewing with a French Twist by Celine Dupuy which goes through necessary supplies, basic to more complex seams, and patterns for around the house. Earlier I bought both Stitch and Bead both in a series by Murdoch Books which are great for basic techniques and some starter projects. I can't wait until we have our "hooby room" ready so I can get everything laid out and make something :)

Retreat

My family home has become something of a retreat for me. It's in a rural community and I love coming home to be surrounded by family and nature. It centers me and helps me focus. Something I really need considering all the projects flitting about in my head that need taking care of.

So this morning I had a relaxing bath in the whirlpool tub and now I'm all set up to read for the afternoon. Hopefully I'll be able to plot out some of my ideas for jewelry, home decor, and clothing tomorrow with renewed clarity.
