Launching a Business, New items and a New challenge....

I have decided to put my dreams out there to the world, I have launched a new business; www.serenityorganizingsolutions.ca   It is a decluttering and organizing service, I have always loved doing this type of work and have helped friends along he way.  I have decided to make my dream a reality, get paid for what I enjoy doing!!  If you know anyone who needs to organize their space, decluter specific areas (need to make room for the car in he garage for winter?) or wants to downsize pass on my information please and thank you.


I have completed my last challenge of 300 items, it was a tough one but I did it.  I am on to my next one as I have gotten many supplies so I shall make 200 items before purchasing anymore supplies.  Here are a few items I have made recently:







 
I have a craft show coming up next weekend:
 
 
It will have over 150 booths/artists please come by and support local artists.  Its a great time to buy Christmas Gifs!!

300!! New items and how the show went...

I did it! I made 300 items with the supplies I had on hand.  I am now back onto a 100 item challenge ~ I cannot buy anymore supplies until I make 100 items with the supplies I have on hand.
I always buy WAY TOO many supplies  lol  this challenge helps me create the items I bought the supplies for originally and to also use my imagination to make some supplies go together that I had not intended.

Here are a few new items:









 
The show this last Saturday was good.  It was a Fall Festival set out in the woods.  There were several artists with very unique wares that were nature inspired.  I was very proud to me among them. 
This was my table:

290 of 300, more from brazil and life keeps going

I haven't written in awhile so I thought I better.  I have completed 290 items out of 300 using supplies I already have.  I have purchased more supplies along the way so I will start a new challenge once I am done for 20o items and WILL NOT buy anymore supplies.  It is so hard as my mind is always full of ideas of what to make next.  I have so many supplies I will have no problem with my new 200 items challenge!!  Here are a few items I have made:








I have a craft show this Saturday at a Fall Festival  it is nature themed.  I have made a few items for this show specifically.......pictures to come.  I know the weather is supposed to be nice so here is hoping for a large turn out:

 
I cannot believe it is a month ago today we got back form Brazil.  It was a lovely vacation but feels so long ago as I am back into a busy life schedule and find it hard to just relax. 
Here are a few pics from Brazil that were from the other camera:
 













 
Such a beautiful city Rio is and I am so blessed to be able to have gone and experienced it.  I was able to see a dear friend of mine and here family, she is in the first picture.  If you ever get a chance go to Rio de Janeiro we loved Ipanema, that is where we stayed.  Such friendly people, amazing restaurants and many sites to see.

Wish me luck on my next endeavours I shall keep you posted of what happens next. Life is a journey and I hope to keep experiencing it not trying to reach a destination     ;)
