Yes. It’s happened. We sold the condo. As of today, it is official.
I have no idea what it going to happen next, but instead of being scared, I am excited … well, and a little scared, too.

  2. Wow, congratulations, I know its been a long time coming! Our place is still for sale and now Husband and I are going through a divorce so it's more important than ever to sell. Here's hoping that this post is a good omen for us too!

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m journalist and blogger in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have an 8-year-old son and a 6-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

Wow! What an amazing night at @rona.ca for my first @craftsmanca live DIY event! There were 70+ of us DIYing our hearts out and making gorgeous wooden trays. I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to have it be so many people’s very first time using power tools, and watch them leave with huge smiles — so proud of their accomplishments! Woodworking is a such a fun hobby and it was a joy to be able to share that with you. Thank you! ❤️ It’s OK to be cranky sometimes. It’s a bad day, not a bad life. Tomorrow is a new day. This, too, shall pass. Etc. Etc. Etc. . . . This freezing cold “spring” weather is THE WORST and it’s making all of us irritable and glum. Right?!?! . . . Sewing by hand is soothing. Taking deep breaths is recommended. Knowing it will pass is wise. Going to bed early is a good idea. So good night. . . . #mentalhealth #sewing #coldestmayever #badmood #longday #goodnight Three birthday girls, one party, and NO presents! 🙌 Hop over to the blog to read about the best birthday party ever. . . . #parenting #kids #birthdays #birthdayparties #lifehack Today on the blog, I’m talking about trying rug-hooking ... and how I was promptly kicked off my high horse because I SUCKED AT IT 😱 . . . It’s true. The creative crafter who can sew clothes without patterns, refinish junk from the curb, turn old scraps into quilts, and hand-letter like nobody’s business REALLY STRUGGLED AT SOMETHING CRAFTY AND IT WAS HUMBLING. 😳 . . . #linkinbio #rughooking #hooking #hookedrugs #learning #creating I stopped abruptly at @michaelsstores when I saw a new aisle full of colourful @officialcricut vinyl, all organized in ROYGBIV order naturally. 😍 . . . I don’t own a Cricut but I had so much fun working with @atasha89 of #frozenintimedesigns making geeky wall decals for a client’s home last month. (Scroll back to see pics!) . . . Seeing sooooo many rolls of vinyl made my head explode with ideas and happiness and mostly lots of rainbow joy. . . . Reminds me of my convo with @suziconfesses on the #WellnessSimplifiedPodcast this week about unconventional self-care practices, like organizing nail polish and LEGO into rainbow order. 🌈 . . . #craftsupplies #happyplace #roygbiv #rainbow #michaels #cricut #crafter #handmade #alwayscreating #creative #creativegirl My jean jacket is basically an autobiography in pin form. . . . Swipe to see both sides! . . . #jeanjacket #pins #flare #sewing #mentalhealth #trurons #tacos #bostonterrier #babythatsthefunofme
