I had the opportunity to go to Marseille (French South City) and Italy this summer… that was quite an adventure,
which I savoured all the better that I scrapped it all along

it begins like that : http://eveil-creatif.over-blog.com/article-place-a-la-creativite-50507482.html

wow now that looks like an adventure! I agree with Reta and Cindy when they say it’s hard to create in a cluttered
studio space . That’s been a part of my problem lately the other part is letting myself be the writer,photographer,
scrapbooker and mixed media artist that I am. So now that I acknowledge this clearing out my little space will be
easier

I’m completely new here! In fact, I’m not even sure what last week’s assignment was. I’m afraid that if I take time to read past posts, I’ll get overwhelmed with what I’ve missed so far, and I won’t ever start working to create my dreams.

I am a mixed-media artist, and one of the things I’m going to do to make room for my dreams is the very mundane task of cleaning my studio. As Reta suggests, it’s hard to be at our creative best in the midst of clutter. My husband is away for several days, so I’m going to use my extra free time to get my work space reorganized and clean. I’ve been on a major creative spree as I prepared for a juried show, and my work space is definitely showing it. I’ve been pulling supplies out left and right, and haven’t put a single thing away in days!

Can’t wait until Andrea gets back with pictures of her living room — not to mention her trip! That hotel looks really intriguing.

I haven’t been doing the assignments weekly so my latest blog post isn’t on this week’s topic. Visitors are still very much welcome though. In this week’s post I talk about thwacking my inner critic with my success tracker.

Hi, everyone, I’m new, and I am creating my dream of my new business, AquaTails, wherein I make and sell mermaid tails. What’s funny is that I’ve been doing these assignments instinctively! This past week I received a beautiful simple corner shelf to match the one we already have in the living room, and I put it together and set it up in the opposite corner, and arranged all of my business materials, inventory, etc. on it, so all that stuff is no longer piled up on the floor. So my new business space is created, and it looks much better. For next week’s assignment, my mermaid team recently got to mermaid in the Denver Aquarium! Now that was an adventure, and quite scary at first!!! We hope we get the opportunity to do it again. The sea turtles really liked us.

Oh, and I HAVE to go to that Capadocia Cave Hotel!!!

Reta, I totally agree with you. A cluttered room makes for a cluttered mind. I like wide open, clean spaces. Though looking at my craft desk you would think otherwise. I’m getting on that right when I’m done posting here.

Lee Ann, LOVE taking those hot baths. It just seems to make the world right again. Even if my cat is outside peeking under the door at me

Leigh, the weather was beautiful here also. I was so happy to open the window and let that fresh air into the house.

I’ve blogged my adventure. http://savvyrogue.blogspot.com/2010/03/new-adventure-turning-page.html
Would love to hear your opinions and thoughts. I’m open.

Savvy.

My creative space is coming along ok… I am making do with what I have and just trying to make best use of the space I have. As for my adventure… I have all my back up info for my new book, so my adventure will begin as soon as I begin to type. I cannot wait to see where I end up with this one.
Hope you are still enjoying your adventure too!

While I wait to take possession of my stunning new office space, I decided to take advantage of the stunning weather and begin spring cleaning! With the dirt and clutter of winterhibernation gone, my creativity has a place to flow – and i need it! I have three new murder mystery games I have to write for events taking place in the next two weeks, so I need the creativity to flow!

I haven’t yet made room for my dream…but I’ve been thinking about it all week. I did take the time to do the exercises my Physical Therapists had given me on Sunday and Friday night…but my back was really bothering me all week. Maybe I’ll take a hot bath later…

Taking to the time to create potential seems crucial. How can we expect ourselves to jump out of bed and be our best when our desks are cluttered, the living room is messy — this just seems to make it harder!!
There are some changes happening in my house right now — and I am planning some potential into the new layout!

Know you are having fun – see you when you get back
