Listen to your heart

Hello Creatives! I made this little heart this morning for my messy art daily challenge!  #messyartdaily

heart_1

It was pretty messy as it was painted entirely on a piece of cardboard with my fingers! I figured little headphones listening to a heart were kind of cute and appropriate.  To me “listen to your heart” means going within if you have a question.  You can listen to your heart by being still and noticing the changes inside.  Do you feel a queasiness, a tightening or do you have a sense of expansion and joy that bubbles up inside when you think about your question? 

Often i say yes to things too quickly before checking inside if it’s a right fit for me then i end up feeling overwhelmed.  The ball is either dropped or I perform the task grudgingly which means my whole heart won’t be into it.  Can you relate to this?  Do you regularly check inside when you have an important decision to make?

The Casbah Rebuild 

build1

We bought a metal shed to replace the old Casbah – it’s a fair bit smaller but it should be big enough to hold the lawn tools as well as our bikes.  I helped Mr. G put up the framework and the walls. Oh the screws – oh the screws – there were a million screws to put in! YIKES!

Thankfully Mr. G’s son Kevin came over just in time to put up the roof – we wouldn’t have been able to scramble on top like he did!

Here’s Kevin getting off the roof – he had to reach in the middle to put on the weather stripping and to drill in more screws!

After we cut and screwed in wooden floors the shed is done!  Mr. G was very happy!

While posting the demolition on Facebook someone commented on how we should keep the Casbah sign so we did. Mr. G bolted it to the top of the shed.  Now i have to wait until the spring and warmer weather is here to paint the Casbah 2.0 – it really sticks out like a sore thumb with this beige colour Smile.

Well I’m off to paint the floor of the casbah and work on some website updates. Hope you have a fabulous day!

Love, Violette xo
