“When you do anything that expresses who you are, you are adding to creation.”  -Deepak Chopra

Some people have a thing for shoes – I have a thing for beautifully colored & patterned tape – known as washi tape.  My (growing) collection brings me so much joy.  I love wrapping presents with it, using it in my journal, on a greeting card, or on my handmade mini journals. I even used them to keep track of our water glasses this weekend.  (Brilliant if I do say so myself!)

I love these little rolls because they make it very simple to be creative.  It is a beautiful medium to express yourself in case you are not an expert artist.  Anything goes and the combinations are endless.

If you are craving some creativity in your life but feel stuck… go get yourself some washi tape and see all the charm & magic you can create.

I’ve bent thinking about this a lot lately, what did the 8 year old me love?

Dancing, playing with my brothers, hanging out with my friends, playing outside, being with my family, making art, sneaking cookies, laughing, running to the ice-cream truck, hanging upside down, campaigning for a dog, and making myself beautiful with whatever make-up I could find.

What would that little girl think of the grown up me now?

What did you love to do?  Are you still doing it in some way?
