be creative again

Some how as I got older my creativity has seemed to fade.. I wish to get it back. Just don’t know how yet. haha.. :P

I used to play with nail polish lots. I would love to get into that again…
Also my “eye” for pictures needs to be found again. With it being a mostly snow-less winter that makes it hard for me to find things to take pictures of. Also just having a hard time thinking of what would make a good picture.. :P I guess I’ll just have to do a lot of thinking….

1 eraser
1 utility knife
1 ballpoint pen
2 hours of utmost concentration

= 1 rubber stamp and feeling like a kid again :)

_{I wonder how could I forget about this?? I only remembered after seeing a hand-carved stamp on Etsy!}

Would anyone know the circumference/measurements of a 6-months old baby’s head?

it’s like craigslist or ebay for crafters!

you can sell your creations online!

this might be just what i needed to motivate me to get this goal completed!

I have not one, but TWO super-duper ideas for Christmas presents. :) It’s nice to see something come out of a whole day spent faffing about. ;)

This is one of the few goals I’m going to implement a semi-direct plan for.

While I’m on vacation for the next couple of weeks I’d like to start sketching again. I always did weird abstract things.
I haven’t been able to smoke pot lately, which was a huge creative influence for me, and I’ve become much more pragmatic having to focus on school and all of the stress in my life…but I’m going to get it back!!

After I get home from vacation (or maybe while on it) I’m going to try writing poems again. I used to live to write poetry, now I don’t even think about it. I want that to change.

ive been in a designer/artist block for about 3 years, i have tried in so many ways to get the creativity that i once had out of me , but… nooo nothing, i start doing something and end u tearing it up… then stop doing anything for a while, i know this is bad, but i cant seem to get myself out of it.. i love reading books on art, design etc, but i think whhat has made me so blocked is too much information. confusion of styles, which way to go , questioning this instead of DOING anything !// if i go back to the days i was creative – i was clueless about artists, styles, theories, concepts, and i used to write theories of my own, poems, paint, draw, i couldnt get enough, now i really want that back and i think think think of things i should do , but when i finally have the time to do it, i find excuses – fooling myself, oh how i envy all those ppl who can let go and be …

i used to write all sorts of stuff, but not so much these days. i should do that more, stories, music and everything.

i’m teaching a summer camp, and i’ve got a clay project and a paper-making project planned. i forgot how fun it was to be crafty! i think i’m actually going to start my paint a bus goal. i also need to think of creative things to do while i’m traveling. hmm…

really creative. I came across my old photography class pictures and felt like they belonged to someone else. I can’t believe my own husband doesn’t know how creative I was. Not a single painting, drawing, or art inspired photograph has been attempted in almost 3 years now. This is so sad. I would love to make this a regular part of my life again.
