craft with love.

Every time i get some time off i like to have quiet time to myself, listen to loud music with my headphones and read.

Things that sadly i DONT do often.

While i was having my quiet time i reflected on why i am so bothered with current situations and i tried to figure out why i have slowly lost so much interest in making my own crafts, lost drive to even work on my monthly booth.

The main reason why i have lost the drive is due to the lack of appreciation of art in this city.

I love to see talent unfolding in front of my eyes. I am so hungry for creativity taking effect on people. I would love to see TRUE talent get the recognition it deserves.



Yesterday i was talking with one of my good friends and he mentioned his sister like he usually does. Its no surprise he admires her and her work so much because today as i was looking through some blogs i stumbled upon her own.







For those who don't know this are hand made headbands by www.ilovefactorybk.com who have now made it into popular magazines and Tv shows like gossip girl and Teen Vogue.



Laurel St. Romain a girl raised in the valley with a great talent has been able to make it far. Currently in NYC has managed to make heads turn all over the country with her unique hand made goods.



Now this is something to admire, today with all my lack of drive to pursue a dream i stumble upon a dream come true!







Teen Vogue




* mean girls wearing I Love Factory Headbands !



This is truly a great inspiration for me and specially today it made so much sense.

With hard work, perseverance and holding on to a dream, amazing things can happen. You really can get ANYWHERE you want to be.
