beautiful thought :: yes. you can. - Fieldstone Hill Design

The only thing needed to pull something off is the desire to pull it off. -Adam Lambert

or as I always say:

“sometimes, the only thing needed to create Beauty is GUTS.” – {me}

maybe you wouldn’t take things quite so far?

but, be inspired to pull-things-off that you never thought you could… by thinking you can. Take your decorating one step further. Paint with that color you love, without fear. Wear that stunning outfit that feels like “too much.”

So, Do you have the guts????

I love this post. Too often am I afraid to do something I want to because it is bold and it will draw attention to me… and I am fearful it will be scrutinized. I am now inspired to decorate my office with the bright colors I’ve been envisioning! And to wear those statement boots that I love but hardly wear 🙂

When decorating my own home I always say “I love it so I know it will work.” And by doing this I have created a home that is my work of art and surrounds me with joy. Great advise, Great post!

You inspire me each and every day, Darlene! Love this post – you have featured animal paintings frequently and I’m looking for them everywhere I go. I may just have to paint my own soon.

Yes, yes! Might I add authentic guts? 🙂 YOUR guts and nobody else’s. Is that weird? You know what I mean, right? 🙂

Is that Helen Mirren? I want to look like that in 30 years. Beautiful.

Love it. I’m painting an accent wall in my bedroom violet because it’s bold and beautiful. There are so many ways to be courageous today.
