So, I've been reading books about "projects" that started out as blogs. Just finished a book about a woman who decided that she was going to "live Oprah" for a year. Last year a read a book about a woman who decided to cook all of Julia Child's recipes in a year. So 2010, I'm starting my own project about Creating something everyday. Can I have 365 days of creation? It could be a card, a scrapbook page, a piece of jewelry, a painting...any arts and crafts type thing. This will combine two of the things I love -- crafting and writing. So, what will this prove after I've completed 365 days of crafting?
One -- it will show me that I have the creativity to think of and do something every day. It will give me the creative outlet that I'm looking for. You hear the advice every day to take care of yourself before you take care of your family. Crafting is something I love to do and is a way to pamper myself.
Two -- I want to enable my girlfriends to get "Crafty." Not only will I have daily crafts but I will hold monthly Crafty Girl nights to help my girlfriends find their inner Crafty Girl. This is also why I have become a Stampin' Up demonstrator. I love their projects and the ideas the other demonstrators have come up with. I've done some really cool things with stamps, scrapbook pages, die cuts from a traditional card to home decor elements!
Three -- Someone dared me. That was good enough to start!
