Fridays feel a whole lot different then they did a month ago.  Now that I’m working full-time for myself, running Ruth Campbell Interior Styling 100%, the day to day is a little different. I’m not going to lie, it’s been super challenging getting this off the ground and figuring out how to manage my time effectively. Sheesh, there’s a lot to learn!

The things that  I’ve learned that I am constantly having to remind myself are:

1. I need to plan my day the night before and try as hard as I can to stick to the schedule

2. Success doesn’t happen overnight

3. Success doesn’t happen overnight

4. Success doesn’t happen overnight

Ha! Basically I know that this is just the beginning of what is going to be a kickass business!

Back in my merchandising days at Celadon My good buddy Franklin always used to tell me,

Chill out Ruth…

“Rome wasn’t built in a day”

This weekend, I’m going to take time to breathe, slow down and appreciate all of the amazing gifts I have in my life.

Cheers to the weekend and all things awesome.

Recently, I’ve been blown away by these beautiful things.

1. Shibori Leather Hides , available through STUDIO FOUR NYC  (pic credit, studio four nyc)

3.Kalasha Dining Table, Anthropologie

Happy hump day!

This is how I found them…Just in the middle of the yard, totally sprouting up out of nowhere?!?!?

Have a great weekend Yall!

Super excited to a part of this Birthday Celebration happening THIS SATURDAY!

I’m such a rookie flower person. I really really really want to be a flower person. ….I’m working on it:) I figure if I attempt some sort of arrangement every Friday I’m bound to get better with practice.

I’ll take you along with me on the journey. Please feel free to offer feedback, tips, comments etc:) Warning: I don’t know any names other than the obvious (rose, tulips, daisy). If you know the identity please pass along!

Oh, and the goal is to keep it less than $10 so I don’t feel terrible when it’s  a complete flop.

This week’s arrangement:

the ingredients

1.Virginia Pale Pink Tulips, Whole Foods $6

2. Sea Oats & some sort of bush twigs I found by the beach. name??

3. Square Glass Vase

4. H2O

happy weekend!
