Creativity Unleashed!

I am usually a somewhat creative/crafty person...but lately, I just haven't been able to get into my groove.

Sure, I see all kinds of things I COULD do...and WANT to do, I just can't seem to find the motivation. But, this morning I woke up and felt MOTIVATED! My mind was swimming with all the projects I want and NEED to finish. New cross-stitch patterns I bought and haven't started yet, knitting projects I've had my eye on, some beading for a wedding that is coming up fast...and of course, my Christmas gifts. Oh yeah, and don't forget the scrapbooking! I don't think I will ever get caught up on that!

So, this afternoon while Noah was napping and Kendall was doing a craft, I sat down to unleash some of the rabid creativity that has been locked away inside me. And here is what I made...

If you've been visiting my blog for a while, you may remember my first beading project...and that was the bottle opener you see in the above picture. I just decided to do some matching servingware. I must admit that I quite pleased with myself! The only problem is that now the creative monster has been released! I'm already contemplating my next project... what do you think it should be? I've been wanting to paint my great room and half bath in addition the projects mentioned above. Or, I could make myself a cute little pair of earrings...I bought some cool beads especially for that! Hmmmm....

Wow that's cute. I never think of stuff like that.

I can think of tons of creative ways to sell cars (that's my job) but stuff like that no way

I'm sure you're not giving yourself enough credit, Snowman...creativity is creativity...you could do it. You wouldn't believe how easy it is!

I say paint something! I love it when I have painted a room and get to enjoy it everyday. Paint first and then make the earrings. That's my vote anyway. :0)
