Music Shelf

This is an old shelf I had lying around and no longer needed.  My sister in law & I are working on redecorating her room.  It will be a musical themed room.  I can’t wait to share the finished room.  This was the first step.  She painted a cream base coat then we ripped up musical paper and Mod Podged it on their.  She did an awesome job and it looks so beautiful in her room.

Megan Auman

 

Megan Auman is an amazing contributor to my inspiration bank.  I have followed Megan’s Crafting an MBA and her work for some time now.  Somewhat recently, I visited the Phoenix Art Museum.  I was so excited to find Megan Auman’s jewelry in the gift shop.  I recognized it from across the room.  As if going to the museum isn’t inspiring enough.

My visit left me feeling so inspired, I decided that I was going to make a new personal goal.

“I will one day have my work displayed in an art museum.”

If you ever find yourself feeling stumped, uninspired, or just downright uncreative… visit your local art museum.  You never know, you might find someone’s work that you know and recognize.

There are so many ways to nurture your creativity.  Surrounding yourself with creative mediums of all sorts, is a sure way to inspire productivity.

Don't Put Off Your Creativity

Upon reading my emails this morning, I came across something that was just for ME.  I'm sharing because I know there are so many people out there that feel the same way... This was sent to me by @BellePirri

Creatively avoiding your creative urges

In the latest post on Creative Spiritual Women I ask, what are you putting off creating because it feels too big for you?

What great idea do you have that you haven't done anything with?

What are you inspired to do that you're ignoring, because you feel like you're not the right person for the job?

You are.

Just start. You'll find all the resources, energy, and guidance you need.

I promise.

Thank you Belle

I really enjoyed this post, it hit home for me.  My hubby tells me all the time that I just need to create.  He sees what I do.  I will have a great idea and for whatever reason, it won't get done.   It will sit on a TO DO list forever.  I also keep an idea journal.  When I'm really feeling creative I love to go back and check out ideas that I'd completely forgotten about.  My hubby suggested I start writing down every idea that I've ever had.  In the beginning I was on overload.  I had to keep that thing at my bedside.  It has proven to be an awesome tool for me.
