My second home

It's come to my attention, that I haven't shared about my second home.

Second home, you ask?

Um, er, yes. 

Eyes downcast, avoiding your quizzical, questioning head-tilt, my hands fumble in embarrassment.

Really, I hate to brag, but my second home...well...

It's really big!
I mean, huge!
You could probably park one hundred cars in the driveway.
The doors are usually always open, with tons of people coming and going {which makes my heart happy}
And even though I'm there quite often, I eye something new every time.

The pantry is stocked with every snack imaginable
And I'm digging some of the home decor lovelies.
Did I mention the square footage?

Although, the neon lights overhead could use some updating, and the doors in the bathroom... not a fan!
Come to think of it, the freezer isn't stocked with a stellar ice cream selection, but, again, it's a second home, and let's not be too picky!
And, no, I'm not sure what modern agenda I'm chasing with the ghastly, overgrown red gumballs out front.
Cleaning it? Forget it!

What's that?
You'd like to see a picture of my second home?

Sure thing...
Fumble, fumble, work up the courage to now look you in the eye, as I tap, tap, and hand you my phone.
Here it is... my second home:

Stepping out in faith!

Praying, pondering, and listening for the right time. That's been the last few months, maybe even years for me.

How can I best use my creative outlet? 

What exactly is my creative focus when I love so many things?
Decorating, event-planning, making handmade cards, vintage/antique hunting, baking...

Amongst all the oober-creative, Etsy-folk out there, what is my unique contribution?

Let's just call it a spark, a glittery light-bulb moment that was conceived almost a decade ago and has continued to reflect and shine and resurface to what I am drawn toward...
WINDOWS!
Finding antique, one-of-a-kind windows and personalizing them with baby names, quotes, inspiring words, and wedding details.






And so the idea was born, and stepping out in faith I go!

Join me on my journey as I merge my writing passion and the start-up of my custom antique window business into one: The Inspired Window.

The new website will be coming soon, so please continue checking back, and in the meantime, enjoy a sneak peek of:

The Inspired Window ~ Seeing creativity in the everyday life and home











What window will you choose, and how can I personalize it for your home?
I'll be taking orders soon!
 
Have a beautiful day and remember,
Be Intentional!
