I love this new sweet little cross 🤍🤍 I have it in about 6 colors and have been dabbling in necklace making here lately- so the whole piece is constructed by hand :) all stainless steel! I haven’t been able to get it listed on my Blue Skies site yet- we don’t have Wi-Fi until Monday and I’m hyperventilating haha- kidding…or am I?! Anyway! I’ll put a link in the bio for the Southern Solas site where you can grab the necklace if you want! pictured with one of my favorite new scripture cards 🤍🤍

I’m embarrassed to say that it’s been a long time since I broke out my pointed pen and sumi ink, but oh how I love working with these tools 🤍 this pointed pen holder was actually my first and a favorite from @thepostmansknock 🤍 I always love this sweet quote from Mark Twain and was so glad to have a reason to write it again for a recent commission! Keep in mind that the video is sped up 4x for the sake of time- no one ever needs to write calligraphy this fast 😝 Hope y’all have had a wonderful Labor Day Monday!

I love this translation of Proverbs 31:26. The application reaches into all areas of life: from training up little ones to dealing with difficult situations when conflict arises. We should always strive to teach and model kindness even when life makes this difficult 😅. Happy Monday y’all!!

“Cast your burden on the Lord for He cares for you”- these sweet words hit home today for me 🤍 in this season of busy it is so easy to get caught up in the daily worries, but I am so grateful to have a Father who takes my burden and gives me peace in chaos.

Ok y’all- give me all the tips! I really love this sweet community I’m a part of here on the gram- but I’ll have to be honest that I’ve been struggling to be present here lately. Partly because my life is complete chaos most of the time and I have no seconds to just sit and think; and partly because I’m a perfectionist and take on too much. How do you fellow introverts do it?

I have read so many things about Instagram and how you’re supposed to post all the time and be on here at least x number of hours, etc. etc. I’ve done all that before and I just can’t anymore. So send all your practical tips!! How can the introverted ones of us keep afloat in the world that is always on?

Tools all from @ferriswheelpress! Aren’t they pretty?
Ink: Poison Envy from the Ferritales Collection
Pen: Carousel Fountain pen in Poison Envy
Notebook: Always Write Feather Notebook.

With the new school year fast approaching, I’m always on the hunt for the perfect planner- which I’m not sure exists 🤔. Enter the bullet journal! Our lives are so hectic right now that I really need something customizable to keep up with everything!

It’s probably been 2-3 years since I’ve done a bullet journal but it helped me so much to get organized. I sat down every Sunday and drew/planned out my week and then I didn’t feel so chaotic not knowing what the week held. And it’s fun to doodle 😄. So I think I’m going to try it again this year!

I’m still not the best with my faux calligraphy, but I will say it has improved a lot from when I first started (swipe for the evidence). Hehehe! Doing a little practice here with the new Tumultuous Tides ink from @ferriswheelpress Ferritales collection. It’s such a beautiful shade of turquoise! Grab yours at 10% off with the link in the bio 🤍. Also pictured: the new Tumultuous Tides fountain pen and the always write for grid notebook from @ferriswheelpress.

So who’s with me on doing the bullet journal?! Let me know below!

Ok y’all! Trying to get back into the swing of insta 🤍 life has been a bit crazy 🙈

And I have to humble brag here that ALL of my back to school shopping is done. Can you believe it?! From the queen procrastinator herself 😝

Anywho- since it’s back to school time, I’m going to be placing orders for bag tags here soon. So if you want one let me know! You can DM or shop the post! These are great for backpacks, tote bags, diaper bags, lunch boxes, etc. $11 with tax! Include your child’s class, your name and phone number or other details on the back! Swipe to see the back examples.
