For Creative Every Day Challenge Our topic for the month is nest and I have been pondering over it for the past few weeks and for me it represents a place of safety, a place where nurturing, growth and security is present. Just as a bird rears its young, so we hold on to our core values and beliefts that are at our very foundation.
While doing the Crafting my best life course with Jenny Doh at Cresendoh we did an exercise where we identified our core values and we put these on stones. Bringing the two together with this challenge serves as as a great reminder.
On a creative front I am becoming more at peace with my adventures as an artist, exploring, creating, journalling, stepping out, experimenting and on the way meeting some cool, supportive, inspiring and talented artists...
As you think about the challenges that are coming your way, think about the values that are at your foundation, the support network that you surround yourself with and that place of peace that you can retreat, to strengthen yourself as you face another day...

beautiful post! I love your nest and the core values you painted on the rocks. What a wonderful idea! I did my core values on coloured pieces of paper but this is so much more powerful! Thanks for the inspiration and thank you for buying my book!
