Crea’tif Living ~ The Painted Artichoke

Thank you so much for taking a minute from your busy life to check out my new project!
Please be patient as the first edition is the ‘maiden voyage,’ so to speak -
So, don’t judge too harshly!
The only way that we can grow is if you to share this with your friends, family, and contacts.
Please do just that!!

I have had the pleasure of owning and operating a small, boutique interior design business for two decades,
with clients all around Metro Atlanta, Lake Oconee and Cartersville.
For over 10 years, I have wanted to publish a magazine
showcasing creativity as a lifestyle. There is no time like the present and decided to just do it!


This project has been an adventure of sorts, putting together content based solely on creativity and very limited resources.
The entire objective is to create an interactive, positive, community, based on common interests ~
Goodness… and The Simplest of Pleasures…

There is a lot of talk lately about the quest for joy, peace, being our authentic selves, finding our purpose
Naturally, I think we would agree that is probably everyone’s ultimate goal.
However
I’m leaving that message to the experts!

Our message is this…
It’s just the Simplest Things….

It’s the simplest choice, the smallest effort, the quick decision to smile… whatever it may be.
It’s the Smallest, Simplest Things that make the difference.


Okay, the next edition is already taking shape in my mind, and I’m so excited!
I’m hoping to feature an artist that sold her first piece in a local gallery.
A daytrip adventure, another “Celebration of Seasonal Food” segment, along with “Let’s go Parking,”
where we check out local parks, and always a “Crea’tif Living” piece or two, where there is always something being created or designed!
What about cookbook reviews, maybe talk a little travel, real estate, graciousness, more local restaurants …
time will tell!

If this can become what I am envisioning, we will have such a great time ~ sharing information,
and creating a creative, positive, gracious, community!

I would love to feature small business, a cook, all types of artists, a not so snobby shopper - please reach out!
It would be such fun to feature you and your talents!

Again, thank you and let’s grow The Painted Artichoke together and have a great time doing so!

It’s the Simplest things… that make a tremendous difference!
