Calendar Girl

One of my New Year rituals is to install a fresh wall calendar. While it's time to say goodbye to 2009, that doesn't necessarily mean that the old calendar ends up in the trash.

I'm turning this 2009 calendar from blah...

... to Tada!

A page from the calendar works perfectly as gift wrap
for small to medium sized presents.


No tags needed...just mark the recipient's birthday
as a red letter day & add a sweet little note.


May you all start the first week of the New Year with a high note!

Happy New Year!

Wishing you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This year, may you
see beauty in the little things,

smell sweet success,

hear fantastic news,

taste thrilling adventures and

touch someone's life!

If your 2009 was blah, I hope 2010 will be Tada!

Time for "You"

It's New Year's Eve tonight and I want to wish you all a bubbly, sparkly and memorable evening! As the new year beckons, I hope you will find ways to...

Life does becomes hectic but I do hope that you will have more time for yourself and for all things that matter most to you.

A Season of Hope

Thanks for stopping by today! There are no craft projects this week, just a few Tada! wishes that I want to send out to you for 2010.

This photo was taken in Brooklyn, New York. Even if the photo is a little dark, I know it's a street we all want to live in: Hope Street. This year was quite a challenging one for many of us and we all want things to get better. I wish you hope that the best things are yet to come!

Lots of Love

Hi there and thanks for stopping by! This week, instead of crafting, I'm sending you off with a few wishes and I hope you'll carry them with you in the new year.

Today, I wish you lots of love! Love that is freely expressed by family & friends. A romantic kind of love that arrives at your doorstep. A deep love for what you do, whether it's a job, a commitment or something you're passionately doing without asking for anything in return. I hope you will feel loved and be able to give love away!

Year End Wishes

Happy Monday Everyone! There will be no crafting this week, I'm afraid. I'd like to take it easy and look back on the year that's about to end. The first thing that comes to mind is:

One of the highlights of my year was starting this blog! I want to say THANKS to you, my dear visitors & regular readers! THANKS for your time, interest and for cheering me on with your comments. I certainly hope you'll continue to visit me when the new year arrives.

I wish all of you many, many more reasons to say THANKS!

Sweet

Colorful

Shiny

Filled with music

and extra-ordinary!

Have a truly Tada! Christmas!
