In a Creative Funk…

Good Morning Paper beading Friends!
Have you ever been in a creative funk? What do you do to recoup your creative juices? The above bracelet is all that I’ve been able to come up with lately…
I have been feeling less than creative for the last couple of weeks and when I feel this way, it’s hard for me to want to work on any crafting projects! I guess what’s going on around us effects our moods and in turn, our desires to get creative.
We’ve gotten my Mom thru her big move…Haven’t been feeling the best lately…Got a big ticket in the mail yesterday…Yes, I guess all of those things are effecting my desires!
If you are so inclined, I’d love to hear what motivates you when you get in that creative funk!
In the meantime, I am going to try to turn things around today and get something going! I’ll keep you posted! Until next time, Happy Beading!

Good Morning Paper Bead Friends and Happy New Year!
Hope you all had a safe and memorable New Year’s Eve! It was pretty quiet around our place but we did stay awake long enough to take our annual family selfie at the stroke of Midnight!!! Welcome 2015!
I have lots of wonderful thoughts and ideas for the new year…now all I have to do is get them down on paper and not lose sight of them!
One of the things I recently began to work on for my studio is a paper bead curtain! The time it will take is a bit discouraging, in between handling my Etsy Shop, but I am bound and determined to finish one for the door window in the studio. It will look similar to the one below only on a smaller, shorter scale! I think it will amazing! What do you think? Definitely an ongoing project!
What’s going on in your crafty world? Any New Year Resolutions? I’d love to hear about them!
Until next time, Happy Beading!

From My Studio Today…

by thepaperbeadboutique

It’s a bit overcast this morning here in the Seattle area but I won’t let that get me down! I have big plans to have some “Me” time in the my studio today!  It’s suppost to be beautiful and sunny as the morning moves on so I plan to take my beading outside!

I have a great outside entrance to my studio with a small deck at the doorway. I’ve put a patio table and chairs out there for days just like this! I want to craft but don’t want to be inside, so I will set up my tray and bring it on outside to my deck and bead away! I will post a pic a bit later on when the weather changes and chores are done!

So what are your crafty plans today? What projects do you have planned? It’s hard to be inside when we have nice weather here because there seems to be so little of it, why waste it inside, right? I’d love to here about your project plans today! Can you take your space outside to work?

Let’s meet up later on today and I will share my outside studio photo’s with you! Have a great Saturday and Happy Beading!
