Weekend Challenge -

I have a non-traditional schedule in my life...which means I have to find odd times to create if I want to get things done!  I'm not sure about you, but I need all the help I can get where that is concerned and I have a few tips to help you get more creative things done!  

  • If you have to go to any appointment, waiting on the kids for things,
    working full time, or anything else that takes you away from your creative stuff, take something with you!  
  • Find a container you can use to take things with you to put all your stuff in, such as scissors, pens, things you need to cut out, die cuts you are layering, etc. This way, you can put everything you finish back in the same container, keeping everything in one place.
  • Do things while you are watching a TV show, or a movie...    
  • Find a notebook you can keep notes in, so you can jot down title ideas, things you need to purchase or do...anything you need to, while you again are waiting for things!         
  • Schedule time to create - at least once every week or two weeks, spend some time in getting things done!  
This past month I have spent time getting past projects done!  A jewelry kit I have had for a long time, a bunch of corner bookmarks to take to the Farmers Markets, a Mom's mini album, and now - a bunch of cards to also take to the Farmers Markets!!!  I feel accomplished...took things with me when I had any kind of time I had to wait, and got more done in the process!  
Thanks for stopping by,
