Create for a friend

“A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.”

Need a creative boost? Try stepping away from your work and take a day off creating what you have to create, and use your time to create something for a friend.

Take a few minutes to reflect on a friend you have not seen or talk to in awhile and create something just for them! You want the piece to reflects their likes, color choices, and style.

Once you complete their piece, give them a call and set up a date for you to meet and give them the piece you created, and enjoy your time together.

When you step away from a project and create a something from the heart, it's a great way to recharge your creative spirit.

When was the last time you created something for a friend?

  3. to be honest, I'm ALWAYS creating for my friends! lol They benefit greatly from my experiments and prototypes. I just made a beaded soleless 'sandal' for my friend Marsha a few weeks ago after I saw her pin something like it on Pinterest.

  6. My intention is to make each piece as if it was going to a friend or family member, even though I'll probably never meet the recipient. Taking time to deliver would be a welcome treat!
