The Woven Life

Goddess of Earth by phungvulienphuong

It is with great enthusiasm that we are officially announcing the re-launch of The Woven Life!  Yes, it's been quite some time since you've heard from us. The important thing is that we are back and so much better than ever!

A couple of things to mention:

1. In case you're wondering, we have changed our name from A Woven Life to The Woven Life.  This is because A Woven Life was bought by a cyber bully who is holding it ransom for a ridiculous price.  So, we decided The Woven Life is an even more amazing name for our brand. Take that, you big bully!

2. We've gone through a lot of changes here to make The Woven Life an indispensable part of your day.  We have so much on the horizon, including killer tutorials, guest blog posts, inspiring interviews and giveaways you do not want to miss!

As always, we welcome submissions from artists, designers and inspirational folks.

If there is a particular subject you would love to see covered on The Woven Life; we're all ears.

Thank you for being with us through our various changes.  We are so fortunate to have such incredible support!

Creative Space

Hello everyone! I am writing to you from my ever shaky PC.  Let's hope she behaves long enough for me to post.  I am in the search for a new laptop, so that I may retire my current computer.  If anyone has any suggestions as far as the best models, I'm all ears!

In the meantime, I've been busy finally moving into my new home and preparing for my favorite part of this long process.....decorating!  I'm most excited about my new art room.  It's a small space with many possibilities.  I will post before and after pictures once it's all complete.

If you have an art studio or craft room you adore, send us pictures. We'd love to see them!  My inner voyeur loves to get a peek into others people's creative spaces.  It's where ideas and concepts are born.  Where you are free to dream and imagine whatever you desire and bring it to fruition. 

On that note, I've been pouring over magazines and blogs to get some inspiration for my space.  I stumbled upon The Selby and wanted to share it with you.  The Selby is a breath of fresh air for creatives.  The brainchild of photographer/illustrator, Todd Selby, the site gives us a firsthand look at artist and designer's personal spaces.  The site has been such a success that it now features notables such as Karl Lagerfeld, Cindy Greene (Designer of Libertine) and Michael Stipe to name a few.  Here are some of my favorite images.

 

Success!! We made it through this post.  Until next time weavers!

  

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do

It's been sometime since I last posted. I am in the middle of a bitter break up with my computer. We will be up and running smoothly in two shakes of a lambs tail.  XoXo.

Hello friends.  Just wanted to thank you for your patience.  My computer has been acting very bratty as of lately and had to be put on time out.  Stay tuned tomorrow when I will announce the winner of our recent giveaway.  Hope you all have an amazing Labor Day!!

Manifesting your World

Pick yourself up and dust yourself off.  Don’t let the weight of the world suppress your dreams and desires. So, you didn’t get that job you were so sure you had in the bag. Things may not be going the way you had anticipated.  Let it go.  Let it be. There’s a bigger picture at play here and believe me it coincides with your dreams.  Only you have the vision of what you want to manifest in your world.


Life is not meant to be such a serious experience.  It is somewhat of a game and it’s up to you to make up the rules.  There will always be obstacles that blind you and come out of nowhere. It may seem as if the world is cunningly trying its hardest to prevent you from your goals. There may be people in your life who secretly relish when things go awry for you.  However, you are infinite and cannot be harmed.  Remember the universe always has a plan for you and it’s an amazing and adventurous one. The only things we must do is stay true to ourselves and follow our hearts.  Make an intention to be the best version of yourself. Focus on shedding habits that no longer contribute to your growth.  Nurture your soul with positive healing foods, music, words and thoughts.

Lighten your load by trusting that you are worthy of attaining anything you’d like.  Send light and love to those who may cause you frustrations. This life is yours to make of it what you wish.  Keep moving forward with the image of yourself being triumphant.  Be persistent with your aspirations and fine tune your talents so that when your opportunity comes you will shine brilliantly amongst the stars!
