Weekend + Winner

It was a beautiful weekend here in California. We enjoyed some homemade pina colada's, while sitting in the yard, soaking up the sun.

We also did the finishing touches on our garage. We knew we wanted to utilize the space for more than just storage. After multiple trips to Home Depot we were able to mount all of our various boards (snow, wake, skate, long, skim..) to the wall to make some space for what we really wanted, a painting studio!

I think it's so important to have an inspiring area to create things. I've never had this sort of space. I've always just painted, drawn, designed, in my bedroom. I finally have the opportunity to go to a designated place where I can feel inspired, artistic (and I can make a mess!). I'm so excited to get started on my next project in my new space!

I also need to announce the lucky winner of my special giveaway!

Congratulations Heather! Please e-mail me at julie.astra@yahoo.com so we can get your five prizes to you! Special thanks to all of the other entries!
