What struck me tonight is that amidst the clutter in my studio there are oodles of artworks, treasures, and trinkets that I absolutely adore. I took time to focus on those tonight. Each piece brings a memory to my heart, and I'm going to try to share those memories here more often.
I suppose that there's a bigger lesson in this...something profound about appreciating the little things in life or taking the time to slow down and truly see what's around us. For now, I think I'll just continue to focus on the smile that crosses my face each time I visit with this particular Peeve.
Thank you for sharing your creativity with me, Cindy!
Jean! Thank you so much for your kid words--creating Pet Peeves gives me so much pleasure! My plan is to continuously create a few at a time, but they seem to come in hoards--perhaps a reflection of the previous few days!
ReplyDeleteFor the record, I have a few pet peeves, one is clutter (of which I have a lot), and the other is cleaning up the clutter. Go figure!
So glad the Peeve kept you company. Perhaps I should make some with opposable thumbs--then maybe they could do some work!

Opposable thumbs?!?!? What a wonderful idea, Cindy!
ReplyDeleteFor the pure pleasure of it, a handbuilding class with you is on my bucket list. Would you please add me to your mailing list for future events?
