Planting Creative Seeds

Planting Creative SeedsA series to help you have your most creative year yet.  January- my mind whirls with ideas for this fresh new year, but it’s not time to jump into these creative projects just yet.  Each year I start out thinking of the grand plans ahead, but many times I leap too fast into all of them at once.  Churning away, trying to DO too much without taking time to lay the groundwork for success.

Not this year though!  This year Maggy of Red Ted Art, and I, are hosting Planting Creative Seeds.

Planting Creative Seeds

Planting Creative seeds is about taking the time to prepare the ground for creative growth.  Just as the ground must rest in winters so that summer plants will thrive, we are taking this time to allow creative seeds to germinate.  Creativity cannot bloom unless we take time in our lives to rest, to plan, organize and gather inspiration.

Over the next three weeks that’s just what we’ll be doing. Each week we’ll write posts and host a link-up about the topic at hand, and invite bloggers to submit their best ideas for adding creativity to your life.

  • Planning and Journaling.  We’re thinking about where we are right now, setting our intentions for the coming months.
  • Week Two is ORGANIZE. We’ll learn about setting up spaces for creating
  • Week Three is MAKE. We’ll be about collecting inspiration for ideas we’d like to try.

Visit the Creativity Resources Page to find all of these links in one place, as well as other goodies.

We are going to help you plant creative seeds, so that 2012 will be your most creative year yet!
