See it. Believe it. CREATE it ...

My "Built in 1944" binder - full of ideas, colors, plans and dreams for the old/new house :) ...

Inspiration ... :)

The journey ...

For the past 6 months my family and I have been working on our new/old house project. It was built in 1944 and needed lots of love and fixing up. We recently moved in and are enjoying the creativity and hard work that went into making this our home.
This quote came to mind tonight:
"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds, or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Everyone can create. You don’t need money, position, or influence in order to create something of substance or beauty.

Creation brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we take unorganized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty—and I am not talking about the process of cleaning the rooms of your teenage children." ~ Dieter F. Uchtdorf

This week - slow down and create some time to create ... :)
