21 reasons to join 21 secrets, an art journal workshop adventure with 21 teachers! |
Brighten the rest of these winter days with color!
As I sit here at home writing this, there is yet another school delayed opening due to yet another snow storm. Yet, I am choosing not to let that upset me because it is March and this marks the countdown to Spring and also to the 21 Secrets Spring 2015 Art Journal Workshop.
Spring will bloom on your work table
Soon Spring will blooming outside and the ugly snow will disappear. Before that happens, you can make Spring bloom on my work table and on April 1 the 21 Secrets Class officially opens. (self-paced class that you can start anytime)
The best way to get the creative juices flowing is to learn something new which is why I take classes too! Spring is blooming on my work table! |
Get the creative juices flowing
We all need something that is ours alone, and carve out creative time. Although I am a teacher and make art my daily practice, I need to get doses of fresh inspiration and take art classes both in person and online. All of us always have something to learn and you can learn faster when you don’t try to do everything on your own. That’s why I love that the 21 Secrets Class has an active facebook community for sharing your art journal journey.
21 Teachers, 21 Ways to Gain a Dose of Inspiration
Those who I have spoken to who have taken the 21 Secrets class come back for more. Being a teacher this year, I have been able to take a peek at some of the top notch videos that have been loaded up to the site and you will not be disappointed. There are teachers I already know and love plus new ones to discover.
Sneak Peek at my Art Journal Class for 21 Secrets
There are so many lessons in the 21 Secrets class this year from “Gelli printing” to “Tarot cards” to “turning your inner critic into your creative coach”. For my portion, you will learn how to design an integrated background, how to harmonize with color and of course my workshop, how to create your own custom rub-ons |

I just redecorated our bedroom and I didn't think it would be so much work, but it was and it was worth it. Thanks for sharing. I'm now following you, and I hope you can find time to stop by me too and follow me under Linky Followers. I'm trying to reach 1,000 and it sure is a slow process. Thank you.
We've been talking about redecorating our entire house so I'll have to check this out. I definitely want our bedroom to be a peaceful sanctuary.
I have a great idea of what I want – but my three little boys seem to not want the same thing as me 😉 Haha. I will get to redecorating soon!
I can not wait to get out own place so we can decorate to our hearts content, I so have an idea of what I want.
I can't wait to be able to redo my master bedroom!! We have been our house for almost three years and have not painted the walls.
Oh, okay. Thanks for clarifying that. I used one before to test colors of walls. Really helpful.
I'm re-doing our master bedroom right now as we speak! These are super helpful links, so thanks!
Ohhh, beautiful ideas and I love that the ebook is free! Thank you so much for sharing this!
There are some great ideas on here for me. I need to redecorate our house. Just some little touches to make a difference 🙂
Lots of great designs here. We recently moved so our bedroom is still white walled.. need to change that!
How cool! My bedroom is so blah and boring. Hoping when we move we can fix our room up nice the pretty! This is great!
Might need this. I'm moving soon and will have all new everything. Can't wait to decorate.
I will download this guide in a few. Right now my bedroom is exactly the way I want it to be-but that could change especially if I see something in that download.
I love decorating so this guide is perfect for me. Thanks for sharing it. I am downloading it right now!! Xo

hi tanya– it's not an app- it is a downloadable eguide with lots of decorating ideas.
I love that you can find specific apps these days for almost everything. I could use this app as a guide. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like a great app for home design. The bedroom is the one room that people should pay most attention to. I love mine and just lazying in on weekends. 🙂
I'm in the beginning stages of planning my master bedroom/bath redo and these decorating ideas will certainly come in handy. Seems my bedroom is always the last place to get some TLC. I want it to look like a spa retreat.
