What Next?

I am feeling a bit schizophrenic when it comes to my project list. I have so many ideas to the point where I kind of freeze up because I don't want to go to one and forget another... or lose passion for it because the prior didn't have the result I wanted.

I have so many ideas! Some are based on trends and things I've seen. Some are based on seasonal things like birthstones, holidays, etc. Others are purely creative and are just for me.

I feel like I should narrow down my crafts into one or two things that I can become really-really good at, but I don't want to lose the excitement I get with trying new things.

The problem is this: I don't want to get into a rut (feeling) that I was in with the 365 day project where I made so many things, but few that I had a passion for or could be truly proud of. That doesn't mean the quality wasn't there... just that I know that is so many cases, I could have gone BIGGER, BETTER and I didn't.

At this moment, I have some ideas for paintings, sculpture, decorations, jewelry... just about everything! What to do. What to do...

Thankfully the weekend is almost here and the house is in order, so I think I will be able to post some fun stuff soon. Stay tuned!
