It was a beautiful day at the 5th Hudson British Car Show which was held Sunday may 30th in Hudson...This years Hudson British Car Show attract people from all over, and every year the show and its popularity keeps growing among visitors of all ages. Classic British cars where on exhibit, such as London Taxi's from the 50's to 300SL & 190SL Mercedes to Morris 8's , Triumphs, Daimlers, Studebakers, Corvairs and MGA's.

Perhaps I have a different car criteria over men, but any car that had a picnic basket on it get my attention, there is something so nostalgic about these beauties. View my photo collection from the event, the wheels, the hoods, the hood ornaments, the font frills, the back side etc...

Spring ~ Summer Decor Trends & inspirations...


miycreations.com, Miy inspirations, miy, at home decor with Maddy

Inspirations comes from many places, I would even say that we all inspire each other in many ways. As a designer, one of my favorite things to do is simply go window shopping...no buying. I like to see the retail trends and then I put my on interpretations and twist into my creations. Sometimes its a fabric or a colour that will inspire me, or a shape or a unique detail. It's never just one thing as a whole, its a combination of bits and pieces of the things I have seen. It can even be a fashion item I saw on a walker by. I always come back from these excursions most inspired. I always look at it all as a whole, the decorations, the fashions, the buildings, all of it inspires me in one form or an other. These are some of the items that caught my creative eye and spirit this season while in Montreal window shopping and at the Montreal Spring Gift Show which is for trade only (so you can get an concept of what up and coming).

After I see things that inspire me, I let them simmer, I kayak, I get inspired by nature and then when I make things, I get a creative serge that leads the way to a new creation.

I made this Olympic Spirit cape as my tribute and way to cheer on all the Athletes for the 2010 Vancouver Olympic games. I actually made the Olympic Spirit cape especially for when the Olympic Flame came to our quaint little Town of Hudson, Québec, on December 8th. It was really special to be part of all the excitement and Olympic fever.

Make your own Olympic Spirit cape, it’s a fashionable way to stay warm and cozy while watching the various Olympic sport events live or on television. Actually you can wear the Olympic Spirit Cape all year round ;) I know I will!

Information and ways to help Haiti visit www.google.com/relief/haitiearthquake/

I was working away today trying to catch up with everything with the holidays finally being over, and many projects on the go, report dues ect... almost even feeling frazzled by it all ...and then I get an email from Salwan .. yes it made me stop and pray. I would like to share with you his message...


Hello Friends,
Sorry to bother you but it is urgent...you know what happened hours ago in Haiti...
Let us spiritually join today/tonight even for few minutes to pray for the victims and families of the victims in Haiti that was struck by a disastrous earthquake leaving many people in the open facing harsh cold winter nights, and many others probably still alive but under debris!!!..I received this call for online joint prayers from my dear friend LuAnn Hunt and would like you to join us in this effort despite the fact that we are all busy...I also know that some people don't believe in the spiritual power of prayers or in spiritual world...I understand and respect all your beliefs but still I believe it is a great thing to, even for several minutes, remember other brothers and sisters in humanity who are in pain today...

May God bless you all...Thanks in advance...

I felt his prayers in this letter ... so I took the time to send prayers to Haiti.
I took my old photo album out and revisit Haiti as I saw it in 1980. It was my first trip abroad exactly 30 years ago at this time. It was also the first time I did not see snow for Christmas and New Years. I had gone for one month with my uncle and his wife and friend. I was most fortunate to have experiences this trip in such a unique way. My uncle is an architect and he was scouting out land with my fiancee at the time. We did not spend this trip like a tourist, we lived with the people, in a hunt (well barely, a roof and two walls). But had the best trip ever! I was really touched by the people, their stories and the land, the culture.

Needless to say that after I did take the time to pray for others , somehow I was able to work in much more peace afterwords.

Namaste
