Wish and Relax

There is a song that I constantly find myself singing in my head, "wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'..." I think I sing that jingle when my thoughts wander about finding a job, an apartment and all of the wishes that I have for my life and others around me. So naturally, when I found the word "wish" made of wood at Michael's crafts (see above picture) I NEEDED to spend the $.75 on it:) I sanded the edges to add my personal shabby chic touch to it!

Wish. I wish I could make a perfect donut cake. Below is attempt number two:

I think I am going to take a break from donut cakes;)

Relax. (also found at Michael's for $.75) I need to relax about finding a new career.... It will happen!

Sewing relaxes me. The best part about sewing is giving my aprons away as gifts. It makes me happy that others can enjoy what I spend time making.

I made this one for Amy

This one is for another friend as a "Thank You" (she hasn't received it yet)

Without even realizing it until I wrote this blog, I have learned from these two pieces of wood... I've learned to keep dreaming and wishing of all the excitement ahead and to stay relaxed and do the things I love because I believe good things come to those who bake cakes and sew aprons:) right?

Stay tuned...This is fabric for my next project. Maybe this one will have a pocket;)

Love,

Katie
