"Creativity can neither be taught nor mass-produced."
I love to write and create. I also want to share my interest in photography, gardening, family, art, decorating, Christian faith and my enjoyment and gratitude to God for creating me and allowing me to thrive in my home setting. I love making my house a home. I am determined to 'bloom where I am transplanted'.

This was important to do.

A cross between a brownie and a slice of chocolate cake.

I'm so excited... I found some leftover paint in the basement and I think there is plenty enough to repaint my play room. It's the color I had settled on (green) and it's even flat paint. I found it hiding behind the gallon cans of exterior house paint. Not sure when I will start painting, probably as soon as I find my paint-splattered overalls. This is great---I didn't have to spend any money for paint.  I think it's important to make a change once in awhile. Invigorates a person, gives them a fresh outlook, and lifts the spirits.

Green, now there's a lovely colour. I think that green can be complimented with almost any colour. All you have to do is go into your garden and you will see how God uses green as a background colour for all his amazing floral displays.
Have fun painting my friend and while you are at it have a chocolate cookie and a cup of coffee, relax and be invigorated once again, Blessings, Geoff.

Congrats on finding the paint! Green is my favorite color. I love art so much, that even lifting a brush to paint walls is therapeutic to me. :)
Have fun!!
