Creativity Over Coffee at Finding Silver Pennies

October 13, 2015 by Cassie 19 Comments

One of my favorite things about the blogging community is the friends I have made along the way.  We come together with shared interests, often similar circumstances, and a shared love of, well, sharing!  Because of blogger events and more, I’ve been able to connect with so many of my friends in real life, and most of the time my friends are exactly what I expected; and often a deeper friendship ensues that face to face meeting.  I was fortunate to meet Danielle from Finding Silver Pennies at Haven in 2014, and I just loved her even more in person, and she is one of the most adorable women I know, and beautiful and soulful, too.  I admire her for so many reasons- her eye for design, her talent for painting furniture, her generous spirit, and her passion for digging into who she is artistically.  I love that she has started taking art classes to better her skills and also do something that’s just for her.  This year, Danielle started a series called “Creativity Over Coffee” in which she interviews some of her creative friends- bloggers, artists, photographers, and more- just regular people who inspire her.  Danielle believes that we all have creativity inside of us; we just have to tap into it and she is hoping this series will inspire others.  I am honored that she has asked me to be her guest today at Creativity over Coffee.

In the interview, I am sharing everything from my creative journey, what inspires and moves me, to what my favorite curse word is.  I hope you will head on over to read it!

While you are there, be sure to peruse Danielle’s blog and check out her charming seaside home tour.  You truly need to see the entire home, but one of my favorite spaces is her recently updated guestroom.

Isn’t it lovely?  The lace stencil, chippy furniture, and cozy bedding make it a restful and peaceful place for any guest.  Or me.  I am booking my room!

Anyhow, hop over to Finding Silver Pennies to read my conversation with Danielle or to invite yourself for a stay in her guest room.

And now, for real, I am actually headed out for a meeting with two other creative masterminds over coffee.  I can’t even make this stuff up.

    Cassie, I am so honored to have you on the blog today! Your answers are so inspiring and I can’t wait for everyone to follow along on your creative journey but also perhaps start one of their own. Oh, and yes, the guest room is ready for you whenever you’d love to stay. xx

    Cassie! This was super fun to read and makes me think that if we ever do meet in “real” life we’d be buds. Love your favorite word, by the way!

      Thank you so much. The guest room isn’t huge so this stencil gives the impression of space while keeping things cozy for guests (or are dog who often sleeps here).

    I think we need to start a sort of literal blog hop, where everyone takes turns staying in each other’s guest rooms :). Only I don’t have a guest room, so I’d feel pretty left out. Off to read!

    Cassie dear, it is a pleasure to read your blog and yes, it is great to find virtual friends with whom you can share the same ideas/things/impressions and last by not least, to learn from them. Your coffee table is so cute… for me to have a place where to put my coffee in the morning when I’m sitting in my bed is one of the most important “accessories” that I need in my house and what you have in your bedroom is simply beautiful. Keep up the good work!
    Let me invite you to explore our handmade wool rugs world, which are specially created by artisans in Nepal: http://feltballrug.com/inspiration. You’ll quickly find that a felt ball carpet is quite unlike anything else: http://feltballrug.com/meet-the-team/ (it is our new video about our social impact) I hope you will like them! 🙂
