Here at The Whiskey Porch, we believe that a smaller and simpler lifestyle should be:
  • sustainable
  • seasonal
  • nordic inspired
  • ​and, artful
This week, we are thinking about some ways to incorporate artfulness in our lives.

I think it's vital to carve out time in your schedule, whether it be weekly or just monthly, to open yourself up to creativity.  It may seem frivolous if you aren't an artist, but the truth is that doing something creative is beneficial in countless physical and emotional ways.  It's good for you!

And it brings you together with other people in a positive and open way.  Nothing bad about that.

There are two general ways to incorporate more creativity and artfulness into your life:
  1. Do it yourself - as in, create something 
  2. Explore and support the arts in your community

I'm actually not all that much of a beer drinker, too rich for me, but my husband is and has traveled the world enjoying the wonderful local-ness of this beverage.  I enjoy wine and whiskey, and we'll have lots more scoop on that later this year. 

Since I'm all about local makers and creators, we are going to share a few local spots that craft adult beverages here in the Prescott area.  

I have not had the pleasure to visit them all personally just yet, but we've got them on a list  to check out soon.  Hopefully you will do the same and share your thoughts. 

We are lucky here in Prescott to have a nice variety of crafters specializing in everything from beer to cider to mead and even whiskey.  We'll get to local wineries in another post...

So, let's get to the list:
