Nursery Week 1

After a week of having our entire 3-person family in our home, the nursery looks nearly untouched.  The changes are slight, but this is a room we wish to grow slowly, like I wish our little girl could.
I spotted that one of the bins in my daughter's closet said 4T and 5T.  I wondered if any 3T clothes was lumped in there too.
Lowe and behold, I found enough wardrobe treasure to nearly fill my daughter's closet with some new-to-her dresses, tops, and bottoms given to us by friends a year or two ago.
I also found another bin, folded in the 4T and 5T bin.  Now, with all 4 bins, I decided to store diapering things in one floor bin and home clothes in another, for now, until I build a little cubby in which to house the bins, or place the bins atop.
Henceforth, I moved the mellow yellow side table out of the closet and into the corner opposite my daughter's crib...
...and topped it with little things I had been collecting for a day such as this.

Paint a Shimmer Forest Mural (with reflections on the creative process)

Image
I've been reminded once again that "revision is progress" and the willingness to edit ourselves helps us to uncover the art that was waiting to be found. After a difficult year, I needed to gather courage to attempt anything creative.  Like all times that I've been stumped before, I looked toward my daughter's room - a blank canvas for some fun; a place to imagine and dream and be a little less serious. We decided that a mural behind her little bed would be a great beginning. While painting her mural, I found that my ability to achieve a desirable end wasn't the concern; it was my ability to step back, and be willing to revise the project as I worked on it that made all the difference. And here is the final view I stepped back to see a few weekends ago. But it began as an itch in my mind. Then it became a sketch, and then pencil marks, and white paint. And after a bit more editing, a shimmery copper paint outline of a forest. At first, I thou...
