5 days off in a row this week for the Christmas holiday gave me so much desperately-needed motivation. I finished my mini vacation off with a complete clean up and makeover of my office. I boxed up, cleaned up, threw away and gave away so many things that needed a new home since my little apartment cannot house any more "stuff". It was such a humbling experience when I moved from a 2300 square foot house into a 900 square foot home.
Home is definitely a much nicer fit for me.
I wanted to share this little project I was inspired to complete today. This is what it looked like before:

Add a little fabric and now it looks like "me"

Bought that little bulletin board at TJ Maxx in the clearance section for $5.00. I think I got a real bargain and had so much fun putting my signature on it.
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and the New Year is filled with blessings and hope for a brighter future.
