Today’s feature will leave you speechless.
A Creative Mint
But before I tell you and show you why, I first wanted to point out this great blogging class she’s teaching. I get asked questions ALL. THE. TIME about blogging advice. “how do I start a blog”, “how do I add a link”, “how do I get more followers?” (you beg silly……..like me). As much as I’d LOVE to help people with blogging questions, or “how to blog” questions……I honestly have no idea what I’m doing. True. I wish I would have had this class 4+ years ago when I started.
Blogging Your Way
I have NO idea what she’s charging, but from the looks of her blog and the brilliance of all the other stuff she posts……I will go out on a limb here and say I bet her class will be good. Just sayin……
Seriously, she’s like Martha on steroids when it comes to putting color together. She has the most amazing Inspiration Boards. If you’re trying to redecorate or create colors for party, she is your go to girl.
Inspiration Board
She has SEVERAL of these. I’m tellin ya……..she’s good with color. Her background is in product packaging. Wow!
Her gift wrapping ideas are beautiful with simplicity. Why don’t I ever think of fun stuff like this.
I bet she’s never bought one of those bags of bows from Target at Christmas.
I know Christmas is over, but I know many of you will be tucking this idea away for next year. Using Trader Joe’s Holiday bags for gift wrap. SHUT UP! She gets the Cutest Wrap award.
This may be a good reason to forget my own bags. Yes, I bring my own bags……..hello………I live in the Pacific NW. So you know I love how she recycled them too.
Here’s another color palette inspiration board.
When you see one of these on her site, you can’t wait to scroll down…..because you know it’s gonna be good.
Puts you to shame doesn’t she? I’m thinking my “fly by the seat of my pants” habit should be tamed.
Here’s one more. The girl is or.gan.ized!
Off you go to get your socks knocked off.
More time wasting here

I am 100% guilty of buying bags of bows from Target. My mother prefers to make her own bows…that creative gene skipped over me!

Kim u consistently amaze me-U R Amazing too! And yet you find these other wonderful awesome amazing bloggers&crafters and develop equally awesome relationships & keep up with everything&everybody & then *dare* to put yourself down?

Wow! Love this site, and what a wonderful job you did picking photos to inspire us. Love, love, love all the color combos, and from now on, the only wrapping paper I’m buying is a roll of kraft! Thanks for the inspiration.
I love that line that Quincy Jones said to Oprah when he chose her to star in The Colour Purple- he said, “your future is so bright, it burns my eyes”! Leslie has talent that oozes “something big is gonna happen here” kind of messages. So great that you are sharing her blog further and Big congrats to Leslie for capturing the wow factor from all your raving fans!

I love how you share the wonderfully creative talents of all these folks as it’s a great big sea of blogs out there and who wants to be the last to know about the good ones! You make us look good and avoid the “Where have you been” comments from fellow surfers! Keep up the flyin’ by the… cuz it’s workin’ for ya!

I am really working on creating a BLOG, but I am stuck….I have this picture that is huge and I cannot figure out how to make it smaller. I really need a class. If you have any advice, I would love it
