EMERGENCY⠀ Our Forests are burning.⠀ 🌲🌲🌲⠀ Climate change is accelerating and affecting our way of life.⠀ We have to do something now to effect real change.⠀ 🌱 🌿⠀ This year I plan to plant 30 seedlings of various native trees in my yard in a effort to make a small change for the better. ⠀ Every little thing helps!⠀ *⠀ Created for @lightbulbproject⠀ #thelightbulbproject_emergence⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #livemoremagic #clickimagine #createandinspire #creativecollective #werbleapp #imaginativeuniverse #manipulationclan #everydaymagic #fxcreatives #igcreative #thecreatives #digitalcontentors #mycreativeescape #thecreativegrid #storytellers #editjunkies #wherewomencreate #amomentofwonder #ps_magic #enter_imagination #igcreative_editz #dreaminginpictures #createandinspirehub #creativityeveryday #manipulationteam #creativegrammers #ps_whimsical #inspire_and_create #alexandriasfriends
NO DOGS ALLOWED...⠀ Once upon a time my dogs were not allowed on the furniture or sleep in our bed. They were all perfectly behaved. ⠀ Then Fionnegan came along and all the rules went flying out the window.⠀ Here are few things you can expect if visiting our house:⠀ - The dog has a "spot" on the sofa and heaven forbid should you sit in it.⠀ - Forget ever going to the bathroom by yourself.⠀ - There is a always a rapt audience when we eat. ⠀ - Sleeping over? Better make room for Fionnegan or better yet take yourself out to the sofa and hope that she doesn't wake up and notice you have moved. ⠀ - Hide your socks. Seriously! ⠀ Now my dogs have complete run of our home and we wouldn't have it any other way. ⠀ 🖤🖤🖤⠀ @storyofmyhome⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #labradorretriever #labs_of_insta #lablove #blacklabsofinstagram #blacklab_squad #snowdogs #animalportraits #animalportraitphotography #doglover #winterwonderland #winterfun #raw_pets #ontariophotographer #raw_animals #raw_community_member #raw_cuteness #canonphotography #canonphotographer #daysofsmallthings #smallmomentsofcalm #ofquietmoments #blacklabs #blacklabsquad #blacklabofinsta #blacklabradorsofinstagram #dogslove #dogsarebetterthanpeople #dogsareawesome #animalsofinsta #animalsoninstagram
FAMILY VALUES...⠀ - no dirty socks on the counter⠀ - dirty dishes go in the sink⠀ - last one up turns off all the lights ⠀ - if I’m on the computer do not approach⠀ - make room for the dog on the sofa⠀ That about sums up our house rules... 😆⠀ What are yours??? ⠀ @storyofmyhome⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #storyofmyhome #myinteriorvibe #walltowallstyle #eclecticdecor #mycuratedaesthetic #myeclecticstyle #myspaceanddecor #mybeautifulsimplicity #slowlived #alittlebeautyeverday #lovewhereyoudwell #snapshotofmyhome #nestandthrive #stylishhomevibes #habitatandhome #simplestyling #scandistyle #styledupinterior #myspaceanddecor #myslowandsimple #hyggelife #hyggelifestyle #interiordesignerslife #myconsideredhome #mystylishspace #dailydecordose #mysimpledecor #thesimplenaturalhome #myhyggehome #hyggeliving
THE DOG DID IT!!⠀ A few weeks back I was out walking the pup and when I went to adjust her leash and collar she mistakenly thought I was letting her run off-leash so she immediately ran off yanking and subsequently toppling me over. ⠀ I had a very soft (Thankfully) face first landing into the adjacent snow bank/ditch.⠀ ❄️❄️❄️⠀ Every time I tried to push myself up I would only sink deeper into the soft snow (Imagine an 8' deep ravine filled with the white stuff). It also didn't help matters that Fionnegan thought it was a game so she jumped on me every time I tried to get out. I must have been in that ditch a good 5 minutes.⠀ The walk back home was less than pleasant as I was covered head to toe in snow and my pants were soaked through. The dog however was in high spirits.⠀ You just can't make this 💩 up!⠀ 🤪⠀ The end.⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #thefairytalebloggers #livemoremagic #digitalmanipulation #asecondofwhimsey #clickimagine #createandinspire #creativitychasers #imaginativeuniverse #calledtobecreative #manipulationclan #everydaymagic #creativegrammer #fxcreatives #bestcreative_editz #cultivatecreativity #seekinspirecreate #photoshop_manipulation #photoshop_edit #photoshop_art #discoveredit #adobecreativecloud #thecreativers #imagemanipulation #manipulationsquad #werbleapp #creatorgram #creativitycommunity #storytellers #creativefolk #thecreativegrid
THE RED PINE FOREST⠀ 🌲🌲🌲⠀ I remember the first time I saw this place and my jaw literally dropped open in awe and astonishment for I had never before seen anything like it. ⠀ This place is majestic, beautiful, serene and magical. ⠀ I love the way it changes with the seasons, the sounds the trees make when the wind blows and the deer that roam here.⠀ Trading skyscapers for towering trees is a decision I shall never regret.⠀ This spot is definitely on the top of my list of places that make me happy and nourishes my soul.⠀ I hope that you have a place that does the same for you. ⠀ @creativelysquared @frenchlyphotography⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ #cs_nourish #lifeinthecountry #ofquietmoments #vibesofvisuals #discoverontario #raw_canada #raw_country #raw_community_member #ipulledoverforthis #backroad_visions #landscapersofinstagram #nature_photography #nature_capture #thesimplethings #canon_camera #canon_photography #landscape_perfection #landscape_photo #adventurousstorytellers #theartofvisuals #nature_perfections #natureloversforlife #landscapeloversofinstagram #alifeofintention #elevatetheeveryday #mysimplehappiness #mysimplemoments #mysimpleclicks #dayslikethese #beautyinthisworld
GO EXPLORE...⠀ No matter the weather (unless it's raining...I really hate rain) then we are up for an adventure anytime.⠀ It's important for me to stay active for my physical and emotional well-being.⠀ It's also important that a high energy dog like Fionnegan gets ample off leash time because if not....well you've been reading my Devil dog chronicle" posts right? This dog has two sides: bat shit crazy or out like a light 🤪⠀ We have many adventures and it helps keep us both outta trouble!⠀ So, where we going?⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ *⠀ @creativelysquared @ryderboys⠀ #cs_active #thelightbulbproject_exploration #labradorretriever #labs_of_insta #lablove #blacklabsofinstagram #blacklab_squad #snowdogs #animalportraits #animalportraitphotography #doglover #winterwonderland #winterfun #ontariophotographer #raw_animals #raw_community_member #raw_cuteness #canonphotography #canonphotographer #daysofsmallthings #smallmomentsofcalm #ofquietmoments #blacklabs #blacklabsquad #blacklabofinsta #blacklabradorsofinstagram #dogslove #dogsarebetterthanpeople #dogsareawesome #animalsofinsta
