One Priceless Treasure

  Yes, its random. But I dont care. Its fun to see what you can create. Its also fun to include my random stuffed animal collect. You want to know why, its simple. Because I want to, because I can and so why not. It makes me smile and laugh to see what I can come up with and how funny it is. 

The farm girl came out the other day. I noticed my camera wasnt sitting right. So the of course the investing took over. Cant blame me for being a daddy's girl. The current task of course stopped because I was intrigued. I find the problem and used my available resources to find a fix.  Yes, multiple attempts to try a function fix due to a small space. I am hopeful.  I am proud to declare that I AM A DADDYS GIRL. According to my mom we have to much fun in the garage. And yes, my dad and I compete in tool collection.

I was out today and after finishing up some appointments I saw the craft store. I randomly was like I have some time. The temptations of the clearance section. Especially since crafting can be expensive. I of course half to explore the store. You never know when inspiration will strike. I see the slate coasters and got to wondering. I can engrave on them. Quick google search said yes, however I didnt look into the exact details. I have done a little exploring on a random rock from my parents yard before. I have also done a lot of engraving on glass as well. The little research that I did mainly had chemical or lasers is what people use. I didn't have either and I am a believer is learning, adapting, and exploring ideas with the tools you have on hand. Its the explore and master potential. I am a believer that it came out pretty good. Especially for being my first time and of course having no idea what to put on it.   

Nothing to special to write this week. I have been taking projects slow. Letting the creativity come in a timely and not forced manner. I attempted I dont know how many times to draw the chandler idea. This is my first carving attempt. Sometimes drawing doesn't bring the idea to life. Sometimes the idea comes through working with your hands. Letting the material and your hands communicate.    Chandler and Leaf video

   I took the time to really let the creativey flow. With each choice and idea, I took the time to consider the options. I made my heart believed the choice was right. My original idea was to make a memory ornament for a friend who lost a loved one. Of course I had no idea exactly what I would make.    I came to realize this project helped recenter me for what really matters. With many ideas, the random doodles started to come. I didnt let my mind have control. The real magic comes from the heart. With pondering and research the project evolved to something more powerful and meaningful full. Because I made what felt right and include things I didnt originally considered.    I helped ground me to be patient and one with the material I am working with. To take the time needed for each step. Because I dont have to have it done in 1 to 2 days. Sometimes project come through fun and impulse. I have forgotten the fun and impukse designs are right, whe...
