Wrangle that overly creative mind

Think, think, think, think, think.  I have a non-stop, creativity expressway going on in my mind right now. Blame it on Spring bursting out or blame it on necessity (music festival and art fair season are both swiftly approaching), the feeling of being overwhelmed is a reality. After a couple of days of thinking myself to a state of immobility, the ideas are starting to filter and become more "do-able".  Oh the trials and tribulations of the overly creative mind....onward, spray paint, onward upcycled t-shirts, onward "gnome homes".....pictures to come....

Fortunately, there are some of us that are able to channel our creative ideas in a concrete and meaningful way. I ran across this blog a few months ago and keep finding inspiration therein. I might not look at the postings in a literal way (like "I want to make that'), but find the inspiration, rather, in the
over-riding ideas.   Repurposing/upcycling is so appealing and frankly, just smart. Waste not, want not!  Here is a lady that has brilliant ideas- check out her blog: www.newdressaday.com

Read a bit and find your muse.  Take her ideas (even if you do not sew) and run wild with your creativity!  For me, it's just time to do, do, do! Now back to painting my ukulele...
