Welcome to the bloggy home of Claire Chadwick. I'm the face & designer behind Scissors Paper Rock Designs, a wife to Chris, Mummy to the Divine Miss Ella & our newest addition; Baby Ryder. I'm a Primary School Teacher by trade, but recently shut my classroom door to pursue other BIG dreams of Freelance Writing. I am also excited to announce that my first Children's Picture Book {So Many Sounds} will hit stores in June 2013. This blog is my little online space where I weave together my reflections and stories of Motherhood. I illustrate with photos.... and drink plenty of coffee to keep me going. I'm on a mission to turn the mundane moments of motherhood into MAGICAL ones. 

Join me in seeping as much goodness out of life, {whilst I continue to drink way too much coffee & take way too many photos} and together we can make the most of our WILD & PRECIOUS LIVES!

I'd love to hear from you....comment on my posts or send me an email. Buckle up, Enjoy the ride!

Live! Laugh! Love!

What a week......

Good morning! How has your week been?

{image from here}

What has been the highlight of your week so far?

Term 4 on the schooling calendar began this week.....and boy oh boy was it a bang of a start already! I'm straight into Semester 2 Parent/Teacher interviews, 25 report cards to write, end of year assessment to begin & preparations for our end-of-year school concert! It's going to be a BUSY term & I can already see it's going to whizz by!!! On top of that, I've had the most amazingly busy but awesome week with Scissors Paper Rock! Print orders are coming in thick & strong which is FABULOUS & I'm ever so grateful! I am also excited to reveal that a gorgeous Tasmanian Store is our latest stockist of my products....which I will reveal ALL next week when I send off her first wholesale order....YAY!!! I was also contacted by a major Australian Company about doing a possible Christmas Order and it's MAMMOTH!! And I'm in the process of working with Sunny Mummy for some possible business collaboration with 1 of my designs! So.....I'm proud to say that all is going well & looking up in the world of business for me & my hours of endless work are paying off!!

On that note, I wanted to say a massive thank you to all of you!! My lovely readers!! My supporters!! My new bloggy friends!! My gorgeous family & lovely friends who spread the love & spread the word of my little business, who show a real interest in my blog, my success & in my products! To all of you I say THANK YOU!! SPR would be nothing without YOU!!!!

Have a great Friday!! the weekend is almost here....I can already smell the freedom of it :)

Wishful Wednesday......

WARNING!!! This week's Wishful Wednesday List is going to be a little different to my usual list of lovelies!! Maybe even a little corny {but it will be honest & from the heart}

As I sat down tonight to blog about my list of things that Tickled My Fancy this week......this is all I could come up with:

I wish for LOVE!

I'm surrounded by LOVE & everyday I give thanks for that! I have an amazing Husband, the most precious little girl, a supportive loving family & a network of fabulous friends! I feel loved & strive to go the extra mile to make other people feel loved too!! I hope that all this LOVE continues to surround me FOREVER!

{image}

I wish for SUCCESS!!! I wish for great things for Scissors Paper Rock & it's future!

I'm sure everyone wishes for this! But I wish for Good HEALTH for me, my family, my friends.....for EVERYONE!!

I wish for CALM!

Calm within myself, Calm within my home, Calm within my work & just general CALM within my life :)

I wish for everlasting FRIENDSHIPS!

A lot of people come & go in your lifetime, but some very special few actually stick around for your whole lifetime! I've known my best friend since we were 10 years old & I hope to still call her my 'lovely friend' when we're old & grey & watching our grandchildren play :)

And lastly....I wish for minimal stress :) I don't think a completely stress-free life is possible....because I believe that where there is love, responsibilities & life....there has to be some sort of stress, worry, expectations & anxiety! BUT.......I wish to live a stress-free life as much as possible......I'm still learning how NOT to stress the small stuff....but I'm getting there ;o)

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

What's on your wishlist this week?
