Inspired

Are not you not feeling inspired? Well, just look ahead on my blog, take your time and enjoy. Look at what professional artists are doing. You don't have to copy them exact. But you certainly can enjoy and come up with your own ideas. No, this is not plagerizing. You are coming out with your own idea.

For instance, instead of sketching the human with clothing outfits on, maybe you love animals and want to make sketches of animals and attach them to your wall. Maybe you can make a garland of snowflakes or make many snowflakes and staple them together to make a long sheet of them and use origami paper so there will be color and staple into your window frame and use instead of a curtain. You see what I mean? Fun stuff!

Free People

The designers that work for Free People are awesome artists. They make so many awesome artistic designs and decorating aspects for their store.

Let's get creative and do some of these ideas for our homes. Many of these things are made out of paper, card board, stencils, cardboard, pom poms, yarn, cotton fabrics, shiny sparkles.

So, I have working on my paper flower making to add to decorations in my house. I want to make some garlands to hang in my windows. Garlands are fun because they can be hung in front of those little white or colored Christmas lights. In the summer, you can hang the garlands along the trees and put a chair and candles and you have a little vacation spot to lift up your feet and snooze. I am already thinking about the summer. Hey, it is already time to start planting seeds in the house.

Paper Cutting-Snowflakes



I never found cutting snowflakes to be easy, and then I saw this paper cutting at Free People at the Prudential Center in Boston. Wow! Love it, so elegant and delicate.
Today, I am seeing many people into paper cutting, making flowers out of paper, garlands out of paper...
