create a grand entrance

I'm currently working on creating a collection door decs for every month. I got the idea from Jil, of Jil Roberts Manuel Photography, who requested a painted canvas to hang on her front door during the month of March (her birthday month none-the-less). I was worried because the canvas she had was so large, but I think it turned out really neat and added that extra special touch to the front of her adorable house... and what better than to spread the Word to everyone passing by?

Jil has requested a lavendar one with a different verse for April. Well, there are 2 hours until April begins... I guess I have a busy weekend of painting ahead of me!

Speaking of painting, it is one of my most favorite hobbies and I'm excited to have just booked a night of Wine & Design with Ashley for April 15. Ashley went tonight with a group of friends and her work makes me so excited to go in two weeks. I'm thankful she had a blast and wants to go back! What a fun way to spend time with your friends while making something you will be proud to hang in your home.

why zest?

By definition, zest is anything added to impart flavor, interest or charm.

I enjoy both finding and making a variety of things that help add pizzaz to my home decor, wardrobe, and meals. It is my goal to use this blog as a means to provide daily inspiration to encourage you to spice up the many aspects of your everyday life.
