Messy Moxie Designs

I'm working lots of hours at my 9-to-5 job right now due to a project I'm managing, so I haven't had time or creative energy for several weeks. But today, I can Labor on whatever I want! I should have some fun posts to schedule this week. 😁🕷🍁🍂💜

Updated event list for September, 2024! Let's mark those calendars, friends, and support small makers. 💜🍂

In case anyone needs to hear this today:
-Your best IS enough.
-Your goals are important.
-Your dreams are possible.
-Your feelings are valid.
-Your opinions matter.
-You will get through this.
-It is okay to rest. (It really, truly is!)
-I'm rooting for you!
-Your voice deserves to be heard.

You are uniquely you. You are enough, and I love you. 💜

Fall IS coming, my friends, and I am here for it! And on September 22nd, I'll be at the Arrowhead Golf Club's Fall Festival. 🍁🍂🧡

Extra-true for me this week. ☕️😆💜

Looking for a fun Halloween project you can make at home for a tablescape or mantle? These would be so cute!! 🎃

Check out these adorable jack-o’-lantern luminaries! These are made using all Dollar Tree materials. My stores carry the black metal candleholders, but you better grab them fast when you see them. Use hot glue or E6000 to glue the glass jack-o’-lanterns on top, and insert LED battery powered lights. The plastic bows and spiders on the bottom can be attached with hot glue. Made by Lupe Tyer.. 

I don't know who needs to hear this, (other than me,) but here you go! You're welcome, and I 💜 you, Boo. 😘

Please tell me I'm not alone in this!! 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

"Buddy the Elf... what's your favorite color??"
💜💜💜 These are from my backyard tonight.
Comment below with your favorite colors!

Athletics has never been one of my spiritual gifts. God bless those who do it well. 😄

Sharing a photo of the stunning white impatiens from my front porch for no other reason than they make me happy! I need to add one of my beaded Garden Stakes to it... what color would you choose?

Coffee and crafting. Because peopling is hard. ☕️💜

Before y'all rip me a new one, I am sharing this tongue-in-cheek meme. It made me laugh, and I hope it does the same for you. Life is too short to be serious ALL the time.

I'm excited to announce my first confirmed event of the Fall 2024 season: the Mulino White Barn Fall Market on Saturday, September 28th! More information to come, but please mark your calendars now. It's going to be good! 💜

Hello, friends! Summer is in full swing in our household, and while I am looking to autumn and Halloween prep, I'm also carving out time for fun projects. This gorgeous rag-wreath is made from Pioneer Woman fabrics and has a lovely red/teal/yellow palette. The finished size is about 14" in diameter and it's an indoor-only style.

This IS available for purchase and I can ship or do a front-porch pick-up for locals. Please message me if you're interested and I will provide pricing/shipping options. 😊

I saw this posted on another group and thought we could all create a wave of positivity, too. I'll start us off in the comments. 💜

Well, this is a lovely way to start today. 💜

This is daughter-the-younger in a flashback to 2014. Our local Michael's had a Kid's Camp workshop where they made cute robots from random boxes, duct tape and assorted bits. Such an easy and fun thing to do at home! You probably have most of the supplies from school science fair projects, so why not? Please feel free to share pics with us in the comments if you do give it a go!! 🤖

All set up at 3 Strands Farm! From Hwy. 213, head east from the Marquam Inn and follow the signs! Saturday, June 22nd, from 10 am - 4 pm.

This adorable gnome wreath showcases the "pancake method", which results in a slimmer profile, allowing it to fit easily between a storm and regular door. It still measures approximately 22" in diameter, so it doesn't sacrifice impact. ❤️🤍💙 Come find us on Saturday, June 22nd at the Lavender U-Pick event at 3 Strands Farm!

***UPDATE: SOLD!!***

I loved this female patriotic gnome sign and I think she makes a fun statement on this red, white and blue wreath that's ready to celebrate Independence Day! Approximately 22" in diameter, it's a bit poufy and probably best for a door that doesn't also have a storm door. ❤️🤍💙

If you love a classic blue-and-white color combination, then this beauty is for you! This has a 12" metal sign over weather-resistent mesh with coordinating ribbon. The finished size is a generous 22-inches. 💙🩵🤍

One week to go before the U-Pick event on June 22nd out at 3 Strands Farm in Molalla!! I'm excited to be a vendor at this lovely farm along with Dazzle Decor and many other fabulous vendors. 💜 Please, mark your calendars and plan to come join us!

This 12" fun-not-fussy rag wreath has gorgeous sunflower and bee gnome fabrics. I am debating: does it need a few faux sunflower blooms on it? Let me know your thoughts below in the comments! 🌻🌻🌻

Making progress... this isn't as easy as it looks. Why is it my "bright ideas" always take twice as long to execute?? 😆

Local friends, please do plan to come and support the lovely small businesses at this event on Saturday, May 11th from 10 am - 6 pm. Vendor booth fees (plus additional donations) are in support of New Narrative Integrated Mental Health, which is so important and impacts everyone, peripherally, if not directly. This is an opportunity to make an impact on so many levels... 💜
