the getting ready part

your story goodies are gathering

goodies for the gift bags


paper goodness

a vintage suitcase full of papers


love this stuff

oh the washi tape


the real behind the scenes

what the kitchen table really looks like

your story happens this week. it is my fourth retreat this year, and i am really sinking into the getting ready part in a way that feels more excited and less "oh my goodness how will i get it all done." because the getting ready part can be pretty intense as i gather so many things to take with me to a spot along the coast hours away. this time, i am gathering even more art supplies than usual and the colors of everything are just making me feel lighter. as though summer is really here. i can't wait to stand under that light in gearhart. it is so gorgeous there. we are going to have so much fun.

while i am away, my plan is to schedule a few posts (and maybe even send a postcard or two from there). it feels like there is so much to tell you these days. how i wish we could meet for tea...one day soon i hope.

sitting down with you and having tea would be such a dream. Sending you lots of love while you are at "your story" I just know it is going to be magical. xoxo
