because i love lists, no. 2

or, where i am finding the intentional process of creativity (otherwise known as art).

1. getting dressed in the morning. seriously, putting on something special makes me feel like a work of art. and on some days, a hoodie is the most lovely thing in the world, too.
2. the combination of words that catch my breath with vintage postcards - for the past month or so whenever a phrase or paragraph has stopped my heart in its tracks i have copied it onto one of these beautiful cards (the actual ones i have are not shown) and now i have a stack through which i love to sort.
3. all the little things that make up a home. (these may be more or less intentional, but the cumulative effect is telling.)
4. honey & jam's 365 photo project. (gorgeous, i tell you. not to mention inspiring.)
5. "tiny" works of art - handmade cards, a row of knitting, a twist of hair.
6. the simple grace of three tulips in a glass. (and yes, if you look at the photo stream in #4, you will see one reason why i have been craving tulips so.)
7. the ways we show love.

(i think this list thing could get addictive. like, really.)
