Hello, my beautiful sparkly friends. Today is Plant A Flower Day! I hope it’s beautiful enough where you are to get one to grow! The bad news is that I’ve been really sick this past week! I was probably only not sick two and a half days of it, which makes this week’s list impressive! I’m so happy to be feeling like a human again. I’m pumped full of Vitamin C (the supplement and the singer), and excited to be moving around! I don’t wish you any sickness this season. Here’s to healthy happy heads.

And yes, it’s Wednesday! That means that it’s time for the weekly photo contest. Today, I’m asking you to take a picture of something floral. Sometime today, take a picture and upload it to social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are all fine). Be sure to tag me in it, so I definitely see it, and #uncustomaryart. At the end of the day, I will pick my favorite, e-mail you for your snail mail address, and you’ll get a little envelope in the mail from me! It’s pretty simple. (And yes, it’s open to non-US people.) Last week’s winner was Sarah!

Don’t forget to RSVP to my next event, which can be participated in from wherever you are! And if you’d like to promote your blog, business, or product on Uncustomary Art, you can now check out my media kit.
