Happy Autumn everyone, loving this weather and am so excited for all the gorgeous colours we will be seeing in the coming months. What a fab start to the fall to spend Labor day weekend upstate in a country cottage with the girls in the Catskills away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Yoga, wine, chat and walks were on the agenda and we soaked up the beautiful silence and woodland scenery.
On Saturday, we had our own version of Kelly Rae’s lovebomb and after spending an inspiring day in Woodstock, we sat on the veranda, drinking wine and being artistic.
In preparation for the Hoboken Music & Arts fair end of September, Hob-art gave me a pile of tote bags to paint on which will be sold at the fair…so I thought it would be a fab idea to bring along on the weekend and for us girlies to take one each to decorate. We had a great time painting, chatting and drinking wine….here are the finished bags.
The weekend was a perfect restbite, relaxing in the woods. I was inspired to think about alternative living arrangements and living a more authentic life… creative juices flowed and friendships were enhanced, it was wonderful!
Love it! Wishing I was there 🙂
Thanks honey! We had so much fun…. and Hob'art loved the bags so are excited to add them to the art stand to sell at the arts festival on Sunday Sept 27th, such a shame i wont be here.
What a sweet post. You are so lucky to have a creative group of women within reach! And the catskill mountains are gorgeous! Love your blog.
Much love.
Melissa

I am also in the fish bowl with you. It is so great that you have a great group women to share this journey with. The bags are so cute. Good luck with the festival. I am in NY, not too far from Woodstock. Looking forward to reading more about your journey. See you in class. -Dana
