I've had a great weekend doing some fun creative stuff after my chaotic week - it's been wonderful. 🌟What have you achieved this weekend? below is one of the things I created - I also started another cottage cloth set!

Hello lovely Cottage Creatives! It's nearly the end of the day for me and the start for many of you. Life is like a rollercoaster for me - one week is calm and creative, and the next can be crazy and chaotic! On the second not much creating can happen and that's ok. I do try to invest time in learning something her on skool from the likes of @Shaz Jones who is a wealth of wisdom when it comes to skool business and I've been sneaking into @Diana Berryman's classroom too, she's just added some content which is worth checking out, and I've also been over to @Deb Boutzetis community and learnt how to make a yummy sauce! (it's a secret!). However, as far as actually creating myself, it's been a no-go zone! So, to help me thru this Crazy Chaos week, I'd love to know what you are creating or focusing on! Oh, I did dig up some little potatoes!

I'd rather be making a mess while making journals, but today I worked in my Cleaning and Declutter business for 5 hours straight! It's called Cottage Declutter & Clean, and it was a start-up initiative of mine a couple of years ago when I needed some extra $ and was feeling stressed working two jobs for 'the man'. I wanted to be my own boss. I decided to work for me - and it was as easy as that! I put a photo up on FB and started telling my cleaning story! I'm good at it, really good, so I thought, why not get paid for it? Next minute, I had myself a fully fledged business, one that I can take with me wherever I go! Soon I'll be offering a one-on-one call for anyone who might need a little encouragement and some help getting started. It could be as simple as taking what you have in your hands right now, and you could be making an extra $ to. This was the simple photo I used on FB with a quick post, and the next day I had my first job and here's one of the journals that also provide income! So not only do I hold a feather duster, but I also have these journals, and sweet cloths I create in my hands too!

Hey these lovelies just jumped in while I was away from my desk - so glad to have you hear! Please share a little about yourselves @Mama Torres who not only writes, @Kathy Roberts who is The Tidy Tutor and way more! @Marie L Crawford who is a holistic, healthy skincare gal and @Luniver Lago who I think may be a writer from Spain? (Please correct that if I'm wrong) I'm for one am thrilled to see you here!

I'm here apologising today for not bringing any words of creative wisdom. I've been ailing since Sunday. So no creating for me, but I will share a pic or two from the business I started with a friend called > The Long Table Perth We've since sold it, but it was one of the most rewarding, fun adventures that stretched and grew me beyond measure, simply because I was willing to just step out of the boat into a new creative space. Do you have any words of wisdom to share or maybe your latest creative WIP? I'll be back tomorrow to check!
