sooo.. yes lame old me.. didn't get around to posting my monday moodboard.. but it's okay right? Lol.. I had big plans for yesterday and I think I had MAJOR jet lag or something! I worked all morning at the new warehouse (did I mention we moved our stores from our garage into a warehouse the week before last?? HEAVEN, i finally hove my house back! lol).
So.. I made my way over there first thing yesterday morning to help sort out a bunch of new product that had just come in, ship out kits for the month and see what product I needed to order that we are getting low on. After I came home from the warehouse around lunch time, I was feeling SOOO tired! So tired.. so I laid down for a bit to just "rest" and the next thing I knew.. it had been 2 hours and I had taken a full on NAP! lol Now that has NOT happened in forever! I can't remember the last time I took a nap that wasn't on a sunday after church? But I admit, it did feel SOOOOOOO good! I just felt bad because I had 100's of emails to return from being gone last week.. so worked as hard as I could until around 5:00 and then called it "quits" so I could spend time with my family who I missed SO much last week! Then went to bed early.. i guess the nap didn't quite fill me up! Lol
Anyhow.. so I am a little off schedule this week. But it's all good :)
Today I am filming the last of my videos for the 3 Hearts Workshop.. so busy busy all day long.. and SPEAKING of which..
She Had 3 Hearts workshop starts NEXT MONDAY!!!

seriously awesome stuff.
So today is just a laid back day for the blog.. but this week I have a couple of fun videos to share with you. Last week, you know I went to Donna Downey's last Inspired event..
the event was AMAZING, the classes.. AMAZING, the teachers AMAzING the format AMAZING.. and my own personal students.. AMAZING. Donna is just seriously a class act. I love that girl. We have been friends forever.. and it was great to be there for her final big event! I met so many new friends and learnd a lot of fun new things. It was AWESOME! AND I am excited because she is going to continue to do smaller "art" retreats at her studio and has invited me to come teach with her sometime in the next year! Anyhow.. Can't wait to do a post about that this week ands share with you! We made a video one night.. at an impromptu "art journaling" hang out session in the hall with Donna and Margie and a bunch of girls. It was so fun. So I want to share that with you.. PLUS so many of you have asked me about my "space".. my studio.. my garage.. so I thought it would be fun to do a quick little tour of where I create.. and also our new warehouse and share it with you! so silly but fun and laid back week in store for the blog. Thanks for all the support you wonderful people always are giving.. just love you all!

Christy please come to S.CA and teach one of your beautiful art classes.

Obviously your body needed more rest then you knew! Good for you to be just lay down and sleep!! And I think those "impromptu"videos and tours sound fun. I always wonder what your workshop looks like. It always cracks me up on the sheart workshops how you are always using and getting new product. What will you do now with the shop out of your house. I guess you won't run out of product as fast ha haha.
I am so happy for you how your life is full circle:) Everything you do is great and you are so natural.
thank you christy.

I am in marvel with all that you do. I know I mentioned that I lost my job from watching your videos. That is part of the truth. I also have been recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia, and sometimes the tiredness (is that a word?) just covers and smothers my body and soul. Although I have only completed one SheArt project, you have re introduced my art ino my lfe and I thank you for that. Can't wait until Monday!
Posted by: Jackie | May 17, 2011 at 02:23 PM

Posted by: Susan | May 17, 2011 at 06:48 PM
my motto, take a nap. do it when you need it. it's good for your body. don't think you'd get everything done though if you took too many naps. love the she class. thanks so much for sharing yourself. love it. have a good week.

christy -
planning on signing up for your class, so excited but a tad overwhelmed with supplies. could you post maybe your top 5 or 10 items you'd purchase on a budget? i have some things on hand, but want to make sure i really have some good essentials to start.
thanks!
