Life Whimsy:
How to think, play, and work more creatively
Inside the gorgeous pages of Life Whimsy, you'll learn how to :
- Develop your creative thinking, twisting your mindset to options & solutions rather than failure & face-plants.
- Rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul through the magic of play. (Yes, adults can play! I promise!)
- Infuse creativity into your profession or business, even if you work in a deeply “uncreative” field.
The content and programming we offer is always a direct answer to the needs of our audience -
you ask for new ways to develop your skills and cultivate your creativity, and we deliver!
"Musical Chairs"
Follow along as I create an exclusive chair collection inspired by the music and lyrics of Taylor Swift's groundbreaking Eras Tour.
Each month until July 2024, I'll unveil a new, one-of-a-kind chair design that captures the narrative and emotions of one of her best-selling albums.
Embracing Taylor's playful spirit, this collection is packed with delightful surprises!
Grab a step-by-step guide to crafting your own themed chair, add my curated playlist for each album to your queue, and follow me on social media for a treasure trove of "Easter Eggs," revealing hints about the next chair release.
There are even hidden messages, bejeweled in yellow, throughout the whole experience for you to decode!

At Chair Whimsy,
we believe:
1.
We're all makers at heart. We are created to make and to do handwork. Everybody can cultivate and express their creativity, develop new skills, and feel the fulfillment and pride in a completed project.
2.
"Play" is a requirement for a thriving adult life. Therefore, we prioritize enjoyment and expression. The tactile experience of handwork is essential to play. You officially have permission to play; sometimes, our students need our help to re-learn how to play.
3.
Creating is a transformative experience. The challenges, risks, and rewards of developing new skills can be therapeutic and help us reduce and manage stress. Completed projects give us a sense of pride and accomplishment, expanding our capacity for joy.
