One of my big goals for 2015 was to say yes to little creative happenings and classes when able. Last weekend I was able to go play at Cathe Holden’s incredible Inspired Barn. Check her out (and her workshops) if you live in Northern California here!
Our project was making a mason jar luminary cloche. Such fun!
Speaking of fun – looking around this space? My mind was blown! I’ve never seen anything like it. 
The artful mix of vintage storage and goods with supplies being readily accessible and visible? Amazing. The detail extended to the class kits too – how welcoming!
Having a bottle of water and little goodies ready for me? Lovely! But every time I looked up I got distracted by something I was seeing, and I was so inspired! I mean really – this place!
Here’s a photo looking back towards the entrance… never wanted to leave this space!
I have so many ideas brewing – I had to come home and write them down! Also inspired? The lovely ladies who shared a table with me.
I was so glad my friend Wanda could come – and she thought to invite and come with the lovely Brenda Walton. Spending time with them was a blast – I have a feeling they would be fun to hang out with ANYWHERE! I had such a good time playing alongside these wonderful and talented ladies. Two thumbs way up to Cathe for not just cultivating such an inspiring space, but also for teaching such a great workshop! She balanced the learning with the space to explore/think so very well.
As promised, she really delivered a space where creativity was nurtured and supported. All the ladies in this class created unique things and I look forward to making more of these, and also playing more with home décor in general. What a lovely way to spend a morning – I am sure I’ll be back!
