Revving up the Muse

I think I might have what Fanci calls 'over-supply panic'. This is just two of my boxes of beads, there are at least 6 more, then a tin for the half-done earrings, a tin of the super-chunky things that don't fit in bead boxes, 3 boxes of smaller beads, 2 of charms, a tin for wire, a tin for bangles... I can see where she comes from with the supply overload, it's hard to stick to one project without getting a headache from your brain trying to make 32 things at once.

This is a little something I made to get the juices flowing- I find it helps to make something you don't have great expectations for in order to get the Muse 'revved up'. At some point this will go in Sparrow Salvage, when I'm ready to open there. It's true purpose though was just to get me in the swing of things to work on the bigger pieces.

 

This evening found me snug and warm at my desk, meditating on cluster pendants and watching YouTube documentaries. I found a lovely 1988 doco called The Victorian Kitchen Garden, it has such a relaxing medatitive quality to it with the soft English voices and wild ruins of grand estates. I've only watched the intro but I'm hooked already! Moppet enjoyed it too- I'm sure she's just as excited as I am about all the other ones down the side bar as well.
