A Treat for Me

I read Brocante Home. And I enjoy it a great deal... always entertaining, witty writing. So when Alison posted that she had a years worth of "puttery treats" listed here, I didn't hesitate.

For the last five days, I have received a lovely puttery post, in my inbox, each morning. And the best part, is that a couple of them have worked hand in hand with my art journal.


One such post was in regards to picking an "action word" (balance... my word for the year) and placing it where you will see it often. So I did just that. On the back of the card I journaled about my need for Balance.


Another post suggested creating a reading list for the year. Again, I thought my art journal would be the perfect place to keep this list.

So I went to my bookcase and pulled out a book for each month of the year. Some are new books, some from last year's summer reading list, some are re-reads.

For me, this was a wonderful way to treat myself for the whole year. I really look forward to the mornings... reading my puttery post, hot coffee in hand.

On another note, I forgot to tell you, I had to turn the word verification on in the comments. The spamming was getting out of hand. Sorry, I know it can be a pain sometimes.

Have a beautiful day!
