My weekend was pretty quiet. I worked on some re-energizing creative outlets and caught up on past schoolwork, which was nice because this is going to be a busy week for me. Thursday is the start of our big trip to LA to check out neighborhoods for our future move. We'll also get to see some family and best friends. It's going to be perrrrfect!
I also took a little walk in the sunshine down to Flax, the coolest art store in the city. I actually usually go to a different, much smaller art store that's near my house, but Flax is a magical "special occasion" place for me. They have stacks and stacks of beautiful paper, paints, journals, frames, and kids' art supplies. It's like Willy Wonka's for artists... at least that's what I imagine while I'm there. Think: workers singing and dancing on easels with whole rooms where everything is paintable! No not really, but it's my imagination and I can use it how I want.
Isn't it cool?!

ReplyDeleteI don't think we have an art store like that is San Diego.

ReplyDeleteNice that you have an easy week ahead. You must be so excited about your trip down to L.A. A little holiday + family + best friends = the perfect break. I look forward to hearing all about it!
I just know I'm going to win the giveaway. It's my destiny. Jacob told me ;~)
i loved LA... i thought Long Beach had a nice edgy sort of charm... art supply stores are soooo much fun
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the wonderful coments about Flax art & design. We are a family run art materials store for over 75 years in SF. If you have a passion for paper, fine arts, stationery, fountain pens, drawing sets, unique gifts,etc.etc. you are at the right place.
