It has been years (that's so sad!!) since I have posted on here, so I am getting back into it and will be posting photos of big events from the past two years. So much has happened, and I got away from blogging, but I want to get back into keeping up with it for my own memory and as a way to encourage me to photograph life around me every day. I'd like to get caught up by May!<br />

I teach pottery and art to 4-11 year-olds, and it has been wonderful so far. The children always love to be there, so it makes my work enjoyable. I even teach a Storybook Art class, which is right up my alley with my love of Childrens' books and the art that makes them so amazing. Pottery is very messy, but oh so fun! I can already tell the kids are improving their skills, and it's exciting to see how creative they get with clay. I like the people I work with and the program I work for, and I think I've had a great start so far!<br />

I've had a few wonderful opportunities to visit Hyannis Port, MA on Cape Cod this Summer. We love the area, but the best part is the house we stayed at. This beauty was built in the 1860's, and is rich in history.<br />

Doug and Linda built this house a decade ago, after dreaming of it for years.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are no screws in the tree at all, and it is beautifully crafted to complement and accommodate the shape of the tree. As Linda is an interior designer, she did an outstanding job of decorating the house to make it perfectly comfortable and natural/outdoorsy. </div>

The evening was perfectly pleasant as well. We drank wine and talked about our dreams, read under the calm light of the lamps, and ate the Greek food we had picked up before we got there.<br />
<br />
This handmade stained glass window is one of my favorite parts of the tree house. It opens in a swivel motion, with the hinge in the middle... sweet.<br />

Then we watched a movie. The tree house has a small, flat-screen tv with a dvd player and a well-rounded movie selection.<br />
<br />
The next morning was so fun waking up in a tree. Of course we woke at the crack of dawn because we were still on our Boston clock and up in a tree. And roosters were happy. But I was glad of it! More time to enjoy the house!<br />

Linda is also a photographer, and she used to have a professional business with a black-and-white specialization. I loved the work she had displayed in the cabin area, along with the vintage art incorporated throughout.<br />

It was so perfect to get a fresh breakfast with boiled eggs from their chickens, homemade raisin-nut bread, fruit, and coffee. YUM! And just waiting for us! <br />

We were sad to say goodbye, but loved our memory/dream while we were there. We will for sure return some day!!<br />

**If you would like information or are interested in visiting the tree house, contact Linda and Doug <a href="http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/86456" target="_blank">here</a>. If you think it seems a little pricy, think again. It is every dollar worth it and very comparable to hotels in the area. :)Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03057505685313131304noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7976752846954516293.post-84646977559165279982012-05-07T09:10:00.004-04:002012-05-07T09:38:48.575-04:00Cape Cod<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We just got back from our camping trip on Cape Cod, and we couldn't have had a better time! It was rainy/misty when we got there on Friday night, but that did not stop us from enjoying our mini-vacation to the fullest. Saturday started with us cooking breakfast and desperately trying to heat water over the fire so we could have coffee. Then we hopped in the car and went on our adventure! We stopped at multiple beaches on our way up the cape, enjoying the solitude of the off-season. I can imagine how nice it would be to come in the summer, but with that comes crowds of tourists, and Chad and I prefer to get away to less crowds if possible!<br />

When I saw how little Lucy's parents decorated her room before she arrived, I knew this birdhouse fabric I'd been saving for something special would be perfect.<br />

Isn't the room so cute?! And that was before they were even done decorating. </div>

I also think it is such a cute and special thing that Mom and Dad painted the birdhouses together.</div>

The winter gets to me. The cold, gray days can be really hard... everyday life can become mundane (yet remain chaotic.) But lately, I've been approaching each day a little differently. My little sister Katie has really struck a chord with me in her quest for optimism.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Why focus on those things in life that cause heartache and stress? We have so many amazing things to be thankful for... so dwelling on the negative seems like a waste.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I mean it is cold and rainy/snowy outside right now... not exactly build a snowman weather (I LOVE SNOW!!) but the rain kinda puts a damper on things.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But there are also birds chirping outside. TONS of them. The sound of spring. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My grandmother used to say, "What are you crying for? It's a waste of tears."<br />
Mom would say, "Crying's not doing you any good." (mainly when I was pouting because I wasn't getting my way.)<br />
<br />
But it's true. Yes, crying is great sometimes, but if we look past what we are crying about... and see things for their raw beauty, taking joy from the simple things- we see that there is much more reason to smile than to shed tears.<br />
<br />

Life is what you make it. We build our lives-- we control who we meet, impressions we make, what we do, how we share ourselves, how we wake up in the morning, what we value...<br />
<br />
you get the point. So on this quest for optimism, this lifelong never-ending journey to train myself to see the good things in life, I thank God for smiles. children's laughter. rainysnow. quilting. crafting. photographing. my family. sisterhood. my honey. my dear friends. the amazing breakfast Chad made me today. hand-me-downs. all seasons. silliness. inspiration. giving. Easter. laundry. dishes. kisses. plants. art. music. forgiveness. second chances. jokes. weekends. waking up to Chad's guitar. chocolate. adventures. camping. dancing. cooking. cleaning. and everything else that makes my life complete.<br />

OPTIMISM could be the key to success. Define success by your nonworldly riches and you will see what I mean.<br />

I found this cabinet at an estate sale for $10.00. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
But it was ugly. And gross. And old.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
But I had a vision for it and figured I'd just give it a makeover so I could use it in my craft room.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV8gg6eVNGeKqrIwewMoQAMxxsxRLkPSQ-_jA3B340cw9gFezGSbEjC1ejEyPo-QGt3Uf02SCM5j32r9JXl4XPOnvURBucOhRt1qUIB0sx26084UTwsCJ_vnE8zCNaYp9cN0Zg8-KATnTZ/s1600/IMG_2187a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV8gg6eVNGeKqrIwewMoQAMxxsxRLkPSQ-_jA3B340cw9gFezGSbEjC1ejEyPo-QGt3Uf02SCM5j32r9JXl4XPOnvURBucOhRt1qUIB0sx26084UTwsCJ_vnE8zCNaYp9cN0Zg8-KATnTZ/s320/IMG_2187a.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
So here are the steps for painting metal... This goes for file cabinets, metal boxes, mailboxes, etc.<br />
<br />
1. Clean (I had to scrub the you know what out of this thing) thoroughly.<br />
2. Sand with 100 or 200 grit sandpaper. If there is any rust, sand it all off.<br />
3. Wipe down so the surface is free of dust.<br />
4. After putting a drop cloth down, spray entire surface with metal primer. This makes it possible for paint to adhere and prevents future rust. I bought 2 cans of it since this was a big project and I wanted to make sure rust wouldn't take over.<br />
5. After the primer is dry, you can paint with any kind of paint. Some say to get the metal proof spray paint, but they didn't have the color choices I wanted, so I got the $5 paint samples from Sherwin Williams and love the outcome. The colors are Tantalizing Teal and Butter Up Yellow, and the two of them mixed. I put 3 coats on the outside and 2 on the inside.<br />
<br />
That's it!! <br />

So you may be thinking, that looks silly... why would Sarah choose such bright colors (and different colors)? Well because I like colorful things and I knew that the only place I could get away with it is in my craft room.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgLwJ7d9Bwsu0yUQdsORY2i6-Fht1pgRT8ZKHhJVymtmHScfZOBFMV38oXHRcCDv9sterchb_j4a_3WkF5RYIJ9ffJ3X95Rz8R07moWgNMhs6p6EsppzLFo6D1opPsF2aTm4eH6eWYiZRp/s1600/IMG_2285a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgLwJ7d9Bwsu0yUQdsORY2i6-Fht1pgRT8ZKHhJVymtmHScfZOBFMV38oXHRcCDv9sterchb_j4a_3WkF5RYIJ9ffJ3X95Rz8R07moWgNMhs6p6EsppzLFo6D1opPsF2aTm4eH6eWYiZRp/s640/IMG_2285a.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And because it looks way cooler when it's filled with wonderful craft supplies. And organized :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim5YlsqxwcYZxydvTB0fo9Nn_8EIdXspQiF8mxpYgnXhBeYgW8h3wsGDrVZEMWP97i1l2eTOAFEuGBkYW2sgzWmZMqSvllfY52Fu12X0e-Xsrwz1Ik0EdCsJx5QnWz-fPsBm254mqJepMp/s1600/IMG_2286a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEim5YlsqxwcYZxydvTB0fo9Nn_8EIdXspQiF8mxpYgnXhBeYgW8h3wsGDrVZEMWP97i1l2eTOAFEuGBkYW2sgzWmZMqSvllfY52Fu12X0e-Xsrwz1Ik0EdCsJx5QnWz-fPsBm254mqJepMp/s320/IMG_2286a.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
I still have to find some good handles for it, but I love how it doubles as a magnetic pinboard. What better place to display things that inspire me than on my supply cabinet?!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWsV7xwzGE6B0mnQZcwbnrXlQSv4efRlJNiVNB2JomC8gsROZjUDI-kcmWxVEj68YtF3hSnCaZW38JuE2ZNymEl3K8F6TbXFTFWfsKPGiqAEN0fZqwkvOvyasJPnzwVVhE0cPGbVbXE_kg/s1600/IMG_2291a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWsV7xwzGE6B0mnQZcwbnrXlQSv4efRlJNiVNB2JomC8gsROZjUDI-kcmWxVEj68YtF3hSnCaZW38JuE2ZNymEl3K8F6TbXFTFWfsKPGiqAEN0fZqwkvOvyasJPnzwVVhE0cPGbVbXE_kg/s320/IMG_2291a.jpg" width="226" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It will end up costing me about $35.00 after I get new handles. A small price to pay for the amount of storage and happiness I get out of it. </div>

If you have an old ugly file cabinet or anything metal that needs a facelift, give it a try. It's worth it, and satisfying! I enjoyed having this project to work on and enjoy it more now that I cleaned up junk that previously made my craft room look like a war zone. </div>

I love Valentine's Day. I'm not one of those people who thinks it's just a commercialized holiday. Valentine's Day to me is a wonderful excuse to celebrate everyone we love. I am so lucky to have so many wonderful family members and friends- so I really enjoy this lovey dovey cheesy gushy glorious holiday. Why do we get off for Presidents' Day but not Valentine's? Doesn't make sense to me.<br />

He got a heart shaped omelet this morning. (I used a cookie cutter) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I made his lunch with these tags attached to his food:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"We're quite the pear!" -on a pear</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Bean my Valentine" -on bean dip for his chips</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"I'm nuts about you!" -on his bag of nuts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Because I love you" -on his Salmon wrap I picked up at Trader Joe's (i don't care for salmon)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"For your eyes only. 'Luncheray'" -get it? ha ha </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I have always had a dream of owning an art studio called Kaleidoscope Studio. I don't know what it is about them, but I find kaleidoscopes to be magical, whimsical, and just plain fun. Perhaps it goes back to the fact that colors and colorful things are therapeutic.... I don't know. I just love them.</div>

<a href="http://www.polymerclayprojects.com/" target="_blank"> Boston Craftworks</a> is the company that I've been working for, and I have been enjoying it immensely. I am sharing about it because we are building a new website and updating the whole business (a revamp), and I get to do the product photography for it. I never really thought I was that interested in this kind of commercial photography, but I have had a blast with it! </div>

We sell kaleidoscope kits and parts, pen kits and parts, and almost anything associated with polymer clay that you can think of. I am learning how to run a small business, getting comfortable with business etiquette, understanding how online commerce works, and keeping in touch with my ever-so-important creativity. </div>

I love what I do, and feel like this a positive direction to move in. Having a flexible schedule and the trust and respect I need from my boss is worth the world to me. It has had a wonderful impact on my well-being, and I feel lucky to have the opportunity. I still get to do some portrait photography and Photoshop/photography tutoring on the side- as well as babysitting (I can't live without little imaginations enriching my life.)</div>

We made a mosaic border on our back porch. It was really cute! I loved the house I lived in during college. My room was always a complete disaster though. </div>

I look back and remember my house, garden, friends, social life, schedule, and happy times...<br />
I really miss those days, but oh how far I have come since then! It is very nostalgic to see what life was like 3 years ago and how much everything has drastically changed... But!! I am happy to be moving along. I miss the relationships I had and my college lifestyle, but life goes on, and I have many many things to cherish right now. I have far from lost these friends, we just have a few (thousand) miles between us. We will make a way to get back together again- I'm sure of that.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03057505685313131304noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7976752846954516293.post-83819514407920275232012-01-29T10:16:00.000-05:002012-01-29T10:16:18.128-05:00Ode to PinterestI like to think that I was an early supporter and lover of Pinterest. Before all of Facebook was using this amazing online bulletin board, I was spreading the news about it, getting others hooked on it. I can't believe I haven't posted about it yet. So today, I share some of my best pins. Things that make me happy.<br />
