Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

News from the Studio

Since arriving home from my holiday I have been busy with my room box and have changed my colour scheme for the Fleur & Ruban boutique. Using two of the walls from the Library and a plain wall from the yet to be completed Kids Bedroom, I settled on a yellow and grey pallet.

I have also begun assembling the Atomic Age Living Room and it just needs a few accessories like wall art, curtains, perhaps some lighting and minor incidentals to complete the look, but this is how it looks so far.


As you can see by the photo below this colour scheme was incredibly popular during the 1940's, though I chose to go with a timber floor rather than the marbled linoleum.
