One Year Celebration! GIVEAWAY!

 It has been one year since I started rambling on about my kids, art and the happy mess that the two create together. I write about our adventures because I feel so passionate about children learning and growing with art. I write because it is documenting special times I have with my little ones as we fly through these precious years way too fast. I write to keep my family (that is a little too far for my liking) connected to us. I write in hopes of inspiring others. I don't know if I do so, but I hope so.
Thank you friends for all the support! I love our little inspiring circle we have. To celebrate my first year as a speaking out loud, owl loving, mess embracing, rambling too much, professional glue remover and play dough making extraordinaire.....I want to give away my favorite art caddy by Boon. It will also be filled with some of my favorite art creating goods! All you have to do is tell me here what inspires you to create.
I hope you win!

  2. How cute is that?! Happy One Year Blogaversarie!
    My girls love to collage and create "mixed media" pieces (and books) with the scrap box of paper around here, I could see my 5 year old having a blast with all of those supplies plus our paper box. Thank you!

  14. Happy one year!!! I didn't realize you started GOA three days before we started Family Sponge. November must be the month. :) Hmmmm...what inspires me. Definitely nature. I love bringing the outdoors in. 2. Coffee and music also really inspire me to be creative. Whenever we do a craft, there has to be Pandora and Starbucks. Then if the craft turns out bad, I still have my coffee and good tunes.

  16. Happy One Year Blog-aversary! You are doing an awesome job Melissa! Keep on going and keep on inspiring :-)

    What inspires me: my kids, and new initiatives. Breathing air into a new project, gets the juices going. Embarking on new adventures, big or small, or even hearing from others that they are gets me inspired to follow my (our) dreams.
