The Million Dollar Idea?

I've been losing at the lottery lately? When will my $202 million dollar ship sail into my living room. I've come to the harsh reality that it may never happen, I know shocking right!!

So I'm looking for a million dollar idea instead. How can I transform my love of kitsch and all thing shabby into a thriving prosperous business?

Speaking of shabby, here is my latest find, aren't these cool, love the mat color, and the aged look of the print.

Here's what I've come up with so far to make my millions:

Screen printing all my funny hilarious saying on T-Shirts
Repurposing old bags into new funky ones on Etsy
Selling my kids on the black market?
(not coming up with anything good yet)

As you can see, I'm having difficulties being creative. I have a friend from High School who is doing amazing selling her creative T's & Tanks. Here is her link http://www.etsy.com/shop/FiredaughterClothing, she is doing great things with her creative business.

I'll keep working on it!

Wabi Sabi

I have found that I exemplify an aesthetic that I didn't know existed! Ha...take that perfection. I stumbled upon it today. The name, not the concept.

Wabi-sabi (侘寂^?) represents a comprehensive Japanese world view or aesthetic centered on the acceptance of transience. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete".^[1] It is a concept derived from the Buddhist teaching of the three marks of existence (三法印 sanbōin^?), specifically impermanence (無常 mujō^?), the other two being suffering (dukkha) and emptiness or absence of self-nature (sunyata).

While wasting time watching video's of  cool people living in Teeny Tiny Houses (my new obsession), One gal described how here shabby chic residence really is Wabi Sabi, imperfect. She saw the world as impermanent and all those things that we slave away for are so impermanent. The old adage: "You can't take it with you", applies right?

So Hooray Wabi Sabi! Here's the link to this totally cool Chica with appropriate expectations of life..."if you ask me".

This is a little too messy for me, but whatever....I like that her daughter is complaining, because....Don't all kids complain, whether it's 4000 sq. ft. or 400 sq. ft.

I think it's Brave, so Bravo Container Lady!!
