When life hands you files…
why not make a little love flag bunting?

We have been busy this last week doing all sorts of incredibly non-creative, boring, get our lives in order sorts of tasks. We have been paying taxes, re-filing life, applying for business licenses… and most dreadfully, preparing to take the California driving exam. Yup… it’s spring break for the hubby which is turning out to mean being beach bums at the DMV and other sorts of not very lovely places.

Thankfully in the midst of our files I found an overfilling folder stuffed with all types of relationship goodies from our past. Goodies like this instant message sent the first summer Matt and I were dating-

Making a strand of love flag bunting from these hidden treasures seemed a great way to liven up the week.

I simply scanned in each of the pieces, printed them out, cut flag shapes and hung with glue and thread. My treasures spanned from our first year together- through my first Mothers Day card including love notes and pictures.

I was right having these mementos hanging above did make filing taxes just a bit more lovely.

Because love is way better than taxes;) I would be so happy to hear how are you livening up your spring as well.

blessings.
