The smallest details count the most - the appliqué sticking, the perfect button, or the comfort of a soft cotton fabric. The details create value and they set apart the "things" from the "treasures."
I'm a final product kind of girl. I like to get things done efficiently. In my mind, the faster - the better. There's no greater feeling than getting the daily "to-do-list" completed… and then some. However, what I'm learning now, is how to slow down and embrace the specifics. It's easy to finish things, but completing them as a work of art - thats an entirely different pursuit.
Take a second to look around you today - the flowers in bloom, the ever-changing wisps of a sunset, the eyes of the one you love - none of those things are thrown together. It's the authentic attributes of those things that allure us and provoke unexplained inspiration in our hearts. Treat everything you do with the goal of reflecting the beautiful detail of the world around you and, all of a sudden, everything becomes more valuable.
