A few years ago I interviewed a Feng Shui Practitioner on my podcast, and one of the things she said that stuck with me is that our homes are living, breathing vision boards for our lives.

I knew I wanted to preserve my bouquet, and thought about drying it, but to me, drying flowers can sometimes feel stagnant. Instead I wanted something that felt poetic.

Creativity and change can happen in small, gentle steps. In this post, I’m sharing a low-pressure approach to vision boarding, perfect for those moments when inspiration feels distant but alignment still calls.
