What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? (Author: Gretchen Rubin)
+ + + + +
What do I not want to make? My brain is constantly spinning with so many ideas I can’t seem to settle on just one – so in the end nothing gets made!
Right now I am struggling with my final 23 boxes – filled with scrapbook supplies. Do I want to continue with traditional paper albums or go all digi? Maybe hybrid – combining them both? I can’t decide, so the boxes stay, unopened and unorganized.
In the meantime, I have a fascination with pottery + words. Can you imagine a simple handmade bowl with “yum” written on the bottom? Or a coffee mug with a quote on the handle or your regular “order” – double double, maybe? I’d like to figure out how to do that and make some fun pieces for me and for friends.
I really want to set aside some time and go through all of my images, figure out what I have and develop a format to make a big coffee table book of those things that visually bring me joy.
I want to make a monster list of all the fun things I’ve found on Pinterest and other sources, and just tick off the list and make everything on it and learn a ton of stuff along the way. Who knows, I may even get *gasp* messy? Maybe even record it and blog about it – you know, all the good, the bad and the creative adventures of online ideas. Oh the possibilities!
First things first, I want to make a warm, uncluttered and exquisite home for me and my children filled only with things we need and love. There is always a lot to do - big and small. Right now I just want to make do with what we have and not have any more workmen or messes!
