Don’t forget to breathe
That’s what I’m doing, at the moment, while a pile of claythings is baking in the oven: breathing. And it’s a good thing, because I think it may have slipped my mind for the last six hours, amidst all of my frenzied activity.
I have a little craft show to do tomorrow night, and it wouldn’t require all that much effort to be ready for it, except for one thing: I went and chose this week to get inspired to try something new. I couldn’t just be satisfied to take along what i have already made. Nooooo, that would be entirely too easy.
Clearly, the most exciting route is to pull out all of my supplies and tools, make a mess of the dining room table, and spend every. last. moment. making a selection of Brand New Items to take to the show with me. Clearly.
I think I need saving from myself.

It wouldn’t be right if you didn’t back yourself in a corner. I do it all the time. I think it’s in the crafter’s nature!

Wow—look at that blue & green clay combo (sorry, I don’t know all the clay terms): it looks like it has a heart in it! Sweet!

Nothing inspires like last-minute panic! Good luck with the show- I’ve never found a local one that seemed to fit my style, but I hope to give it a try some day.
I’m doing the same. I still have some time to my exposition, and I already have a lot of thing ready, but I’m never satisfied with what I have.
I’m doing the same. I still have some time to my exposition (14/05), and I already have a lot of thing ready, but I’m never satisfied with what I have, and I’m still waiting for some clay that will receive next week. Is always the same…
Gorgeous mokume blocks, Lisa! I love your choice of colors.
I know what you mean, some of my most creative moments come when I’m stressed out getting ready for a show. Why is that???
Have a fabulous show!

Lisa,
Looks like you are using similar color combos as your buttons. True? If so, that’s a great idea!
So typical of a creative person! Done the same thing more than once myself!
