Today I am starting off the day with a walk I took through the neighborhood where I live. It was quiet when I went out and got some inspiration by clearing my mind. I listen to music with an up beat which kept me at a good pace as I watched the squirrels and the birds and enjoyed the smell of the lilacs in the air. This always helps me creativity process when I feel blocked or overwhelmed with so many ideas. I am working on a cross stitching piece for my cousin's babies. I almost have them complete. I took a towel that was for cross stitching in which I took a cookie cutter for a basic shape and a stencil for the letters. The colors I did were ones I felt fit the personalities of my cousins. I am willing to make these towels for anyone if they contact me by dreamtigeress94@yahoo.com. I will be charging $25 for the towel $5 for each one shipping and handling fee. I will discuss payment methods if you contact me in an e-mail. I do still make jewelry as well with the inspiration of day to day things. I feel that your environment can inspire you when you are blocked. You should always go with whats in your heart because it can never steer you wrong. If you are making something specific for someone then you should see if you can be inspired by what you know of them. If you do anyone will love your design no matter what because you caught their essence. My tip for beads is go to www.fusionbeads.com which has no shipping fees. Fire Mountain is a great place and wonderful selections of all kinds of beads and stones. They both have everything you need for your projects. If you need stuff right now and do not want to wait then go to Micheals or Wal-Mart near you and you can find some great deals on all your craft needs. I post these as ideas I have done recently I will post a finished look of the baby towel soon. Let Mother Nature and your heart inspire you always.
