You are brilliant and extra extra extraordinarily creative! You are already an artist! If you haven’t had a book out on DIY projects or book on the work you do – well you better! I think you motivate many people with you creations and how you bring things come alive. haha You inspire me. Keep it up! π

Thank you for following my blog a few mths ago! I just wanna share with you that I have recently changed host (nearly died along the way π ) and if you like, please come again to my blog and you can type in your email address as with the change in host from wordpress, new posts will not get delivered to your email address like the last time.
So if you like posts to get delivered to your email address like the past, you have to type in your email again. It only appears in your reader now, so if that works for you, then it is ok.
