I have been really feeling a ton of creativity bustling around in my not so little head and heart. I have a billion little projects I want to create, build, begin… but very little time…
What do you do? How do you not lose yourself?
I saw a quote on Kal Barteski’s blog – “Tomorrow is a chance to wake up new and forget yesterdays stumbles and blunders… tomorrow is a fresh start!!!”
Thank God for fresh starts other wise life might get depressing.
Some projects on my creative to do list:
· Start and complete the large Print painting for above my master bed (this had been brewing in my head for over 1 ½ years)
· Repurpose an ugly mirror I inherited with the house to accommodate my necklaces….
· Hang some of Joelle’s paintings
· Sew a tent for my little buddy
· Start an on-line art class
· Spray paint some clogs – Dutch clogs
· Find, paint, re- furbish some sort of small hall table for our bedroom which will become my getting ready station.
· Look at blogs. And then do.
· Make an hipstamatic print book on blurb… coupon expires in august.
· Create a blog book for Joelle
All projects begin with shopping – I am good at this part – Joelle loves to shop. It is finding the time between, bathing, bedding, feeding, adjusting, working, and sleep to fit it in. I love involving Joelle in my projects but there are times I just need to get in a zone and do it myself…. With out the infamous amount of questions – why? What about this color? Mamma do markers go on wall? I want to use your colors not mine…
So I now have in my possession:
- Wire
- Hooks
- Spray paint primer
- Yellow high gloss paint
- White high gloss paint
- Black shoe polish
- An extra large sharpie marker
- A MASSIVE pre – stretched canvas
- 12 wooden canvases (two are painted)
- 2 larger wooden canvases
- Online course purchased
- Brushes
- Lots of prints
- Lots of fabric
- Space
- Lots of pictures
Still looking for:
- Small hall/make-up/vanity table for cheap
- Wooden doweling
- A personal trainer
- House cleaner
- And TIME!!!!!
Remind me why I work again??? I know, I know…. I probably would be just as strapped for time if I was a stay at home mom.
i think of that quote a lot too! love it! love the creative energy! time is so hard, sometimes wish there was more, sometimes wish it would mov faster! haha
