The Weekend In Review

February 25, 2013

rug shopping for Cocoon Home Design clients

Part of me losing momentum had to do with not spending enough time at home.  Since our arrival, we’ve been a bit over anxious to see and experience California and have been exploring it incessantly.  This weekend, after my epiphany in Lake Tahoe, we decided not to venture out and stayed home instead.   I did leave the house briefly to scout rugs for a project, but the rest of the time relaxed with my family and worked in our garden.  The comfort and familiarity of our home helped hone my creative juices and stir my momentum.  Sometimes, staying put is just what the body and mind crave and need.  Take a look at some of this weekend’s images:

garden favorite: our tree fern

first stages of a vertical garden

nature scavenged quince branches

the life of Loki

Max drumming in our courtyard

sunday afternoon bbq

Are you a homebody at times, always or never?  How do YOU recharge?

Judy, don’t be surprised if you find a shovel in one hand and G&T in the other. Looking forward to your visit!

Cali life does agree with y’all my Peeps ;) . I find sometimes staying still and letting the creative process come naturally. I see more than I ever would when it is forced. Losing momentum for me means stepping away. My inner voice is telling me to break away to re-engerize and watch the juices flow again. I miss y’all!

Sade, I agree Cali is our place. Being still here with this landscape is so inspiring. I look forward to seeing you soon and seeing what creative things you’ve been up to.
