inspiration
Jul. 10th, 2008 09:08 amWhat inspires you? Do you have a dedicated crafting space? Take a picture and share!
I've been having trouble with inspiration lately. We're moving in a week so at the new place I'm going to have my own crafty corner for my sewing/beading/everything else. I want to decorate it in a way that inspires my creativity. I plan to hang some masks I've made, maybe a pocket shrine on the desk, and keep a list of current projects where I can see it. and of course, material will be organized and easy to find! I'm tired of hauling out and rooting though a rubbermaid tub when I want to find something.
Additionally, this space will be far far away from the computer and the distractions of the internet.
Hanging over all will be a plaque/sculpture thingy of the goddess Brighid. She watches over poets and those that work with their hands, as well as home and hearth, and she is the keeper of the fires of inspiration. The yellow paint is drying as we speak--I'll have pictures soon.
Peace.
