When I got home from @oxfordfreepubliclibrary yesterday, I found this gorgeous photo from library director, Brittany McDougal, who found the perfect vase in her office to display the flowers she created in my #paperflower workshop 😊❤️ I also borrowed a few crafty books before I left for the day — looking forward to spending some time with books by @psimadethis & @valeriemckeehan #creativeinspiration #ilovelibraries
Yesterday morning I had the pleasure of crafting with the creative community of Oxford at the @oxfordfreepubliclibrary — many paper flowers and smiles were made — it was an awesome day!! 😊❤️🌸 #upcycledflowers #papercrafts #creativereuse #librarylove
This week I had the pleasure of presenting upcycling workshops at the Belchertown & Leominster, MA libraries. I had so much fun crafting with their creative communities. We made pumpkins, flowers & explored the art of quilling 😊❤️#creativereuse #upcyclingworkshop #ilovelibraries
Join me for a crafternoon this Saturday! Call the Sunderland Public Library to register: (413) 665-2642 😊❤️#sunderlandma #creativereuse #ilovelibraries
Just look at how happy she is! I found this record at @turnitupnoho in the bargain bin. Of course, I wasn't looking for music, but rather a surface for my latest creative reuse project: finger labyrinths. I discovered this handy meditation tool in the serenity gardens at the @southhadleypubliclibrary earlier this summer & have been thinking about how to make them since. This project came full circle when I discovered that Margie Adam has a thing for labyrinths, too. So her album has not been upcycled (yet!) 😊❤️Swipe to see the finished pieces...they were so much fun to make! #serendipity #repurposedrecords #creativereuse #margieadam #fingerlabyrinth #meditationtool
I learned a new paint technique & suddenly no surface was safe 😊 I painted boxes, buttons, bottle caps and created canvases from wood, cardboard & even a chocolate heart box ❤️so much fun!! thanks @louchmura for the idea & the paint 😘 #crafternoon #upcycling #creativereuse #diypainting #repurposed #trashismycanvas

Some of the stops on the Speaker Sisterhood #SpeakUpTour2018 include dinners in private homes and Angela Lussier, our founder and CEO, really loves them. Why? Check out her Claim the Stage podcast: Tales from the Road: #SpeakUpTour2018 Part 3 and you’ll get to hear some of the two-minute speeches given at those dinners. Most of the women you’ll hear in this episode rarely give speeches (some never have) and bravely agreed not only to speak in front of the group, but also to be recorded for this podcast. How cool is that? . . The Claim the Stage podcast is available on iTunes, GooglePlay, Stitcher, iHeartRadio and Spotify. For more information go to SpeakerSisterhood.com.
