Feed Your Muse!

My muse is mysterious and wonton in her ways. Do not ask me her name. I do not know it. She is elusive, fickle and quite severe on some days, cracking her glorious whip C driving me forward without regard for my need for sleep, nutrition, fresh air, etc. My back aches from leaning over the bench, my wrist from an injury less than a year ago still fresh on my mind, my eyes cross due to sleep deprivation and still she drives me. I do not direct my Muse. She directs me. It is my job to follow, to be slave to her whims and master her desires. My muse takes me down rabbit holes, where bright ideas are born in the moments fire. Wonderful accidents lead me in a whole different direction than I set out intending to take. That leads to breakthroughs. My success is all to her credit. I am just the vessel that she fills. So how exactly does one find their muse? I recently found this article on finding your muse by Alisha Burk and realized that I couldnt say it any better. Check it out and let me know if it helps you find your muse. Here is a small excerpt to whet your appetite: Theres no doubt that the Muse can speak to us through others. But what makes your work original is knowing which influences to use and which to tune out. Its an interesting life these days: TV (yay!), internet, IPhones, US Weekly (double yay!), check your email, check your texts, voicemail, multi-tasking (boo!), news, Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, Like, Unlike, post, delete, upload, download . . . . .repeat! This constant snowstorm of information clouds my brain. I wake up in the middle of the night wondering about my inbox (I know, its totally obsessive!) Where does it end?! Is there an end? In the middle if this madness, where does our Muse get a chance to speak to us? Can our inspiration sing if its voice is drowned out by all of these digital voices and influences? I mean, its great, this new communication, but every blessing brings its own kind of curse! How do we manage this flood without drowning in it?

Bee Rosary

Bee RosaryI'm extremely happy with this small rosary for that Bee Group, whilst not as remarkable as my event drum. Its only glass and cotton, but its convenience causes it to be extremely enjoyable to make use of. It also offers a great weight to it.

Lovely Butterflies

I enjoy Jade Scotts function. I enjoy it! Its so vibrant.Something I've been working on within my jewellery is doing terminations and links in ways that feel more ended. I really like working with waxed linen, and Ive seen that conclusions are, incorporated by Erin Siegel, 1 of my favourite jewelry artists as part of the layout. I utilized that thought in this necklace. I joined the string, some beads and the pendant with reddish waxed linen.I also actually love all of the unique patina handled chain for sale in Shannon Germans store MissFickleMedia. I used two segments of egg-shaped brass ocean blue string. Its such a joy to use high quality, handcrafted parts like these. It was my first attempt. I wish to make my images better.

A Coordinating Topiary Ball Pendant

The basis piece of the set is the pendant, which seems like a beaded topiary ball. The pendant is the thing that places this layout into the complex class, because it's constructed from the web of seed beads above a spherical center bead, utilizing the geometry of the dodecahedron. Even though I included several illustrations within the design to describe it correctly, the thread course of the internet is a bit counterintuitive. This layout will probably be somewhat familiar, for those who have ever had the opportunity to create the Tila Garden Pendant.

The bead within this pendant could be produced of any material, nevertheless this special pendant utilizes a plastic core bead, therefore it is very light! I believe that it would also seem amazing as a focal bead in an even more elaborative necklace... What do you really believe?
