Motivation and Inspiration

Finding motivation and inspiration in my work is a complete Blessing to me. Around every Chalk Couture Corner I find joy in the huge things and especially in the small things. Sometimes, it is simply our corporate leaders’  attention to the minute details propelling my progressing success. Other times it is in the personal touches that make each one of us feel special. I feel very fortunate and at home with Chalk Couture.

Motivation and Inspiration in Great Abundance

Our Chalk Couture Leadership Conference was last month and it completely touched my soul. Each interaction with the corporate team made me feel as if we had known each other since childhood. Even as a first time attendee,  I was quite surprised at how comfortable it felt to be there with people I had never met in person.

For reasons (at first) unknown, the Chalk Couture Spring Summer 2020 Collection release felt very personal. Each of the designs seemed to hold some kind of meaning for me. Each quote or verse evoked a memory or a chuckle. The profound influence of nature in the designs also brought back many amazing memories. Call me weird, but I was so reminded of why I fell in love with my husband in these new designs.

CRESCENDO

I suspect a partial reason for why I felt such immense connection with the entire collection is that I had the honor of meeting our Chalk Couture Art Director, Eric Clegg.

Just imagine having the opportunity to peruse the carefully curated collection of complete artistry all in one room.  A stunning symphony of creativeness fills the entire space.  Add to that imagery, the thrill of the orchestrating Maestro being in that same room, taking a few moments to chat with you. This is a special memory that will stay with me. It all felt quite surreal  and was a definite ‘moment’  for this gal.

Wasn’t this supposed to be about Motivation and Inspiration?

This post began as a segway into introducing a Chalk Couture Transfer that spoke to me and encouraged motivation and inspiration. There are absolutely many stunning designs that I am anxious to own and create for my own art. This particular transfer design is very direct and to the point. I usually take the long route to saying what I mean, but this message is  perfect and concise.

Introducing my new motivation and inspiration mantra for 2020.

Family Chalk Time is the Best Time!

Family Chalk Time is always fun! Not too long ago I was blessed with the opportunity to get together with family for a few days. Both daughters were there, as well as both grandbabies. (ALWAYS an awesome bonus). We decided to do a short bit of chalking while Dad and Grandpa watched the li’l munchkins.

Hais is positioning the different pieces of our Happy Fall Y’all silkscreen transfer on a artist’s canvas. This was the first time we had chalked together.

She made quick work of her artwork and promptly displayed in on her new fireplace mantel.

This was just a quick little impromptu mother-daughter chalk session that I hope will become a regular event with both daughter.  Crafting together is always a fun family bonding moment.

I would love to see photos of your Family Chalk Time or Crafting. Feel free to share on my Facebook page at That Chalky Gal. Did you know that I offer virtual Chalk Couture workshops? Send me a message for more info!

A Special THANK YOU!

Sometimes we just have to ask for help. I want to send a HUGE Shout Out to someone very special for his help with getting Talk Chalky to Me back where it needed to be. This past week, I had been struggling with making some updates and was almost at my breaking point ….. to just give up with wading through all the many steps required. Tonight, I feel very blessed with less stress over technology all because of a completely awesome gentleman.

Thank you so much Lowell!
