In Monday’s Mindfulness session, I chose card 24 - Creativity lies in each of us”. Today’s episode is all about creativity and I share with you one of my current crate projects.
What started as a day workshop learning sashiko - a Japanese hand embroidery technique -has morphed into a jeans upcycling project to make a sashiko embroidered French cushion for my outdoor bench. I had best get it made so I can make the most of it this summer!
I really believe that we are all creative. We just need to give ourselves the time and space to play with the sort of creativity that brings us joy. Try everything. Sign up for workshops. Enrol in adult education classes. Join the local knitting club. Invite friends over to paint. Pick up an instrument. Sit in the sun with a notepad and pen. I can guarantee that even a small dose of creativity will make you feel amazing! (She says still full of cold!)
Please share your creative projects in the comments. I’d love to see them and creative inspiration from others is SO powerful.
Keep shining and reaching for your best!
