Don’t think, just do.

ch

Seeing as winter was upon us, it was time to upgrade Bear’s winter shoes. The boxes were too good to chuck in the recycling straight up, and I couldn’t be bothered storing them, so out came the craft bo, and the boxes became a house (left box is an open plan lounge/kitchen, right box is bedroom with ensuite), complete with a spoon person, aptly named “Person”.

 

And the title, you ask? My motto for this week. I think I’ve mentioned before that I am a procrastinator. Big time. I’ll even procrastinate about fun stuff. But over the weekend, I had an epiphany.  (And for those EBers playing along at home, not that kind of epiphany).

 

Don’t think about it, just do it. Then it’s done. It’s working so far. I had a very productive weekend, the house got clean, I finally caught up on all that washing, finished the top of the D9P, made an art smock for Bear, and also made him a little sleeping bag. Very productive indeed. Today is shapng up pretty good too. I may even get the D9P quilted today. But I might just have a coffee first…

Nope. No excuses. Let’s do this crazy little thing called Monday!

Hi! I'm Rachel. I love making things & experimenting with new techinques & mediums. I am addicted to pretty paper, and make & sell letterpress stationery. Being creative is my sanity break from the rush of life as a wife, and a mother of four. I do a lot of my creating without shoes. This is the story of where my bare feet & creative heart take me.
