Chrissy says
I’M BOLD!
Hmm, something brave. I think that having the courage to get up and conquer the day everyday is brave. I think that we don’t give ourselves enough credit… sometimes just making though the day is a victory and we should celebrate all of lives little victories! I think that people do something “brave” everyday; It may not be any big adventure, it may seem life changing, but maybe to them it is?

Susan S. says
I’m Bold…
Why? Normally I’m the kind of gal that tends to gravitate towards the darker, colder colours. Over the past two years I’ve been struggling to find a forever colour scheme (being a military spouse, forever basically means good until the next move).
After much trial and error, I’ve settled on something I really, really love– chocolate, teal, lime and white. It took a lot of gumption to just go for it and I’m ever so glad I did!
Monica says
