My sisters and I got together several months ago. When we're together we like to share a few of our current favorite things and also some favorite quotes that are inspiring to us at the time. I was excited to share with them a simple, sort of silly quote that can have great meaning in your life if you let it...
Not My Circus, Not My Monkeys
Meaning? Not my problem. Or some things are not in my control.
Love it!
My sisters loved it too. I knew as soon as I saw their reactions I'd would make them a painting with this phrase on it.
I already had the masonite tags which made the perfect canvas for this project! They measure about 5" wide and 8" tall. Each of the monkeys are hand drawn and colored so they each have their own personalities.
I had to keep them a secret for a while since I sent them out individually for birthdays. I made one for me too. I have it on my dresser where I see it every morning and it reminds me that some things are just not my problem. I don't have to fix everything. :)
I love mine, I look at it everyday!! And my kids have even started saying it :)
