Today. . .
Hmm. . . yes I’m being a tad self indulgent today. . . but sometimes you just need a ‘ME’ day.
A day when you toss that ‘To DO’ list aside. . . forget about the non essentials
. . .and just concentrate on doing what you love!
It’s not like I don’t have a plethora of creative things that need doing, cause for sure I have a big long list. No, todays break in the work schedule has more to do with circumstance. We had a big old storm front due to come through last night, so the gorgeous ‘Bored Housewives’ (Tuesday night craft class) packed up my studio and moved everything up off the ground.
The storm came through as warned, but thankfully there was no flooding in my studio this time. The worst of the weather has moved further north, but we still have persistent and at times, very heavy rain. My plans to work outside today have been scratched. . . so a new plan was needed!!
First thing I had to do this morning was to unpack the studio and put everything back in its place.
I did a bit of a clean up while I was at it. . .
I played with some new thrifted wares. . .
and then I ‘foofed’ and ‘fluffed’ with my studio pretties!!
I don’t know about you, but I get a great deal of enjoyment just playing with and appreciating my crafting supplies. . . feeling the textures, grouping the colours, sorting and folding. . . just simply enjoying the eye candy.
After all that ‘foofing’ I was inspired to jot down a few new ideas in my creative ideas journal, so having a morning off has been good for the creative juices too.
Now that I have a clean studio and an open schedule, I’ve decided to spend the afternoon creating something just for ME. A creative piece that sings to my heart . . without having to consider will others like the colours or the design. . . or whether it is practical or even profitable. Hmm. . . I might even use some of the pretties I’ve saved in the secret ‘just for me’ stash.
Until next time,
Hugs ~ Kerryanne
