Perfection is Overrated – and other things!

Perfection is overrated, and that’s something that I firmly believe in! You search for perfection, then never really obtain it, so end disappointed!

Strive for imperfection, but reach for your very best!! I’m proud of you! There is beauty in imperfections, because they show the hands of the maker!

Little brooches that sit unfinished, waiting for a purpose.

Perfection is overrated, but strive for your very best! Silence the nagging voices, then loosen up control. You’ll be happy that you did!

Keep safe, social distance, wear a mask, and wash your hands!
