Hi, I'm Heather:  Writer, illustrator, designer, Creative Freelancer and your host. Welcome to Gift of the Fab, a blog about the things in life that move me, inspire me and stir my creative juices. I like to write about fashion, beauty, and the things on my wishlist that are influencing me to shop. 

I'm inspired by art, literature, travel, absurd humour and fine wines - preferably in the company of good people.  Bonus for all of the above experienced in beautiful locales.

It might be a "What's in my Handbag" one day, a "Face Masks I'm Coveting Now" another, "Hairshrine" images and musings of the next best hairstyle, or just plain creative brain dumps for those thoughts that pop into my head - be they prose or poetry, travel impressions or creative missives featuring real recollections or flights of fancy.

While you are looking around, I invite you to check out the South Granville Inhabiter, a site I also write for along with three other friends.  It's about our neighbourhood and why we love living here.

I hope you find my website and blog interesting, insightful and entertaining.  Mostly, I hope I can share my wisdom (what I've learned so far!) with you in an inspiring way.

Thanks for stopping by!
