Embracing Imperfection + Free Art Print

Yesterday kind of sucked. Nothing particularly bad happened, nothing really happened at all actually. It was just one of those days where I hated everything I made and nothing seemed to be flowing. You know what I’m talking about. We’ve all been there, probably more often than we care to admit. Even though it comes with the territory of being creative, it’s still enough to make me doubt everything, most of all myself. I hate days like this. I can have 100 good days and one of these days is enough to make me question if I’m good enough to be doing what I’m doing.

WHAT!? That’s ridiculous and it has to stop. Immediately. We are human, not machines. We cannot produce perfect art 100% of the time. It’s just not possible. There is no shame in that and definitely not worthy of doubting our entire self-worth on.

So, I’ve decided to embrace days like this and try to learn something from them, instead of pretending like they don’t happen.

Yesterday I embraced being imperfect and shared it with the Instagram world.

Today I am giving you a free downloadable art print. It’s yours. Take it. Print it. Hang it up. Look at it when you’re having one of these days. Shake it off. Just don’t resell it. 🙂

Hand Lettered Holiday Gift Tags – Free Download

This year I thought it would be fun to create some hand lettered holiday gift tags to put on our presents. And since they turned out so stinking cute we’ve decided to make them a free download so you can use them on your gifts too! There are 8 different designs in total with 14 tags printing to a sheet. The file is set-up to easily print on letter size paper. We printed ours on 80# card stock, but anything in the 65-100# weight range would work nicely. After printing we used a paper cutter to trim them down to size and then used a small hole punch. Pair it up with some jute twine or cute baker’s twine and you’re really going to give a pretty gift to your friends and family. Click here or on the photo below to download.

Make Everything Beautiful

This quote hits home with me so much. I have spent my entire life striving to make things around me beautiful. It is the reason why I do what I do. I saw this quote today and knew I had to incorporate it into my daily life and my business. So I made a print to hang in my office and just loved it so much that I want to share it with all of you too, to encourage everyone to make the world a more beautiful place. This print is yours. Hang it in your home or in your work space. Enjoy. And create something beautiful. xoxo
