Work in Progress ...


Sometimes I just like to make "Simple Crafts" so I feel like I am being productive - Things that will not take me a long time, but simple projects. Today's pic brings me to this thought process - Bookmarks - So easy, but somehow I know there will always be a use for one, or give one to someone etc ... Fun, Easy, Simple. Is there a part of you that just wants to be creative at times? And what do you do to satisfy this urge?

    You've made wonderful bookmarks Kristine! I love the colors! It's always a fun and easy yet very creative thing to make. I also like to make them when I don't feel like making something big. Also, a fabric flower, a brooch, a card, all of these things are good to make in a short time :)

    Sonja - You are too kind - YOU are the true crafter - I just like to have fun - I need to try my hand at a fabric flower - Perhaps you can give me some guidance ... Yours are stunning!

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

All about Hope ...

I thought this image was appropriate for how I am feeling today. I seemed to have gotten a second wind with being creative this year. I am excited to tell you about my new treasure in writing. It is a newfound website (that I found in a column in Oprah's Nov 2011 magazine) called 750Words.com. This site follows the steps of Julia Cameron's The Artists Way. It helps you work towards a better writing style. It encourages you to write 750 words a day. This is approximately 3 typewritten pages of words. I am finding it easier to pick a theme (from Patti Digh's LIFE IS A VERB book - Thanks, Patti!) to help create daily themes. Please cheer me on to continue this daily ritual.  Have you started a new routine that you would like to share?
