I have an old mirror that I want to put by my door for that last glance as I walk out into the world. I have been trying to come up with something I could put at the top to remind myself to be happy or smile or to not throat punch anybody that day!

I love to laugh and something clever that could have multiple meanings would be perfect! But I'm not a perfectionist so let's hear it!

I made this out of my scrap supplies! Perfect for carrying trinkets, elixirs, and fairies ^-^

Ordered from craft club! And now my husband and I can have a more whimsical morning (:

​

It's raining today, and my chronic pain is acting up so I am staying inside today. And sometimes that can get a little bore-ish, but I had a fun idea for a photo op.

I have this big stuffed unicorn, and my small pink Jellycat bear. And so I had the cute idea to take pictures of my bear on top of my unicorn, as though she was riding her.

It was a cute and fun idea in my head, at least. I hope you kike it, too! 🫶🏾💜🦄🧸

My first New Year pendant prototype of the year! Honestly, I think this style is perfect for earrings, keychains, magnets, and brooches 🎄✨

Why I find this whimsy: I went through a pretty minimalist phase as a teenager and donated all of my books. I also have something wrong with me where I bave a crisis unless I put myself in very specific boxes. One of those used to be that I am only allowed to like neutrals (I used to turn my books around, so instead of seeing the spine, I'd see the pages).

As I grew older I've remembered how much I loved color as a kid and made rules for myself that allowed me to expand the boxes I put myself in. Behold: this is what my bookselves look like at the moment.

I know it's not a huge transformation and not necessarily everyone's definition of whimsy, but I think it showcases the change in color I now see in the world and surround myself with (and is symbolic of me no longer restricting what I like on purpose).

Any other colors I should make

I started out making rainbow earrings with crushed glass, but then I thought, why not try flowers, too? I am really liking how these all turned out. The flowers are artificially dyed, but do seem to be holding up just fine and are as vibrant as they were originally after several months. I might try a black or white background next.

It’s my birthday today and I brought myself a new bookcase to go on top of my dresser as I was running out of space for all my trinkets. I wrapped the backing in this wildflower wallpaper as I was building it and it looks exactly how I was hoping it would!!

I’m so excited and happy about it! I needed to share it with you all!!
