DIY for your Soul!

One day my soul just opened up
and things started happenin'
things I can't quite explain
I mean
I cried and cried like never before
I cried tears of ten thousand mothers
I couldn't even feel anything because
I cried 'til I was numb.
... Vanzant
I am so excited about this event that I will be hosting in conjunction with Styles For Life and the author of "I'm In Love With The Whitaker's x5". This DIY event is not only meant to ignite your creative spirit full of fun but the main agenda is to help others to enjoy and embrace their personal "Runway" walk of life. 

The purpose of this event is to instruct, support, empower and inspire as you rise into the next level of your life. You have the power to make/ create/ D.I.Y. your life's RUNWAY!

So.... Strut your stuff!! It's an Original!

Thank you to the Houston Recreation Department for inviting me to speak and share creativity with the Teens. I was one of the speakers for this event, Teen Fashion Workshop. All of the Teens, girls and boy, learned about the Do's and Don'ts In Youth Fashion from Thomisina Burns of Styles for Life, Modeling 101 from Troy Brown, Hair Grooming & Styles from Tamika Arrington of The Look Salon and I shared how to make a scarf from a t-shirt.

Kids want to learn... This I believe!  Therefore we shall keep teaching!

All serious daring starts within.

--- Eudora Welty

 

Dare to dream... take the first step. Image that if at anytime you could create a new world for yourself like none that is today. What possibilities would your imagination dream up?  Do you aspire to sing, or dance in a musical or even teach others to dance. Wouldn't you like to have no worries of if, "this was the right path for you."

What are the payoffs for just jumping ALL the way in and doing your dream...

Liberation?

Power?

Bliss?

Passion?

YES!!!! all of the above!

I am on this journey of daring to dream while keeping the creative tabs in my mind under control.

I have invited my dreams to come out and play. I can't lie and say I'm not scared but I'm jumping anyway!

 

...I'm sharing with you a project that I just completed for the

Women's Council of National Real Estate Brokers.

Houston, Texas.  

I created and made journals that were given as gifts.

gold leaf

Gold leaf is gold that has been hammered into extremely thin sheets by goldbeating and is often used for gilding. Gold leaf is available in a wide variety of karats and shades. May be found at any craft/supply store.

 

I will be teaching this technique to a wonderful group of Seniors at the Houston Parks And Recreation Center on February 10th. You are welcome to join us!

Have fun and Just Keep DREAMING!!!!
