Day 17: Secret Places

There is no hard and fast rule as to what makes a secret place. Beauty, by its very nature, is subjective. Our criterion is a simple one: we must feel at home, we must feel good to be there.

A secret place represents an escape from reality, a chance for the human psyche collect and recharge. Whether its curled up with a good book in your favorite chair, reciting a mantra in your private meditation room, or tending to a rooftop garden - this place should thought provoking and embody a sense of calmness.

For the first time in a long time I was able to just stop for a moment - and collet my thoughts. It felt good as I found my self standing alone in the middle of the sweetest little lady's secret garden.

I am sure you are wondering why I am standing in the middle of this secret garden, Sarah's Secret Garden.

I was invited to provide a table scape that will be displayed in the secret garden during the Holiday Tour of Homes - a tradition in Sanford. I went there today to gather inspiration. A left with a feeling of rejuvination! (and a lot of ideas!)

What started with "Ill just take some photo's and be on my way." Turned into a loong moment of meditation. Take a look at Sarah's Secret Garden from my perspective and enjoy :)

How could I not stop and take a moment here? The beautiful black and yellow butterflies swarmed me AND I was able to grab the inspiration needed for the design of the table-scape! As well as a moment of meditation to myself. A big THANKS for that!! Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

What is your secret place? Do share!!
