I’m here to tell you that CREATIVITY IS CRUCIAL. Painting door hangers has allowed me to tap into parts of myself that I didn’t even know were there. It’s made me stronger, more confident, and less afraid to take chances. Tapping into my creativity through this craft has allowed me to believe in the power of my ideas. To be honest, it hasn’t always been like that. Like all things worth having, it started with baby steps.

Keep Showing Up

If you’ve been following along with me for a while, you know I started this business by doing paint parties, then I transitioned to painting on Facebook Lives, and now, I have an entire online community where I teach women how to paint door hangers. You can read more about the beginning of Southern Adoornments in my blog post, “The Start of Southern Adoornments Decor.” To be honest, it took time for my abilities to catch up with my determination. I had to learn the necessary techniques to get good at this craft — and I didn’t immediately produce amazing results right out of the gate. But the important thing is I kept showing up.

Exercise Your Creative Muscles

Eventually, the progress came and I began to see what I was really capable of. Creativity is like anything else—the more effort you put in, the greater the reward.
