Hi friends:) Just popping in to say hi, and share this totally rad video with you that I saw over at Not Your Average Ordinary. It made me stop and think about how I stay creative….pretty much every way rings true to me…

What about you? How do you stay creative?!

I am currently on vacay having the best time with ALL TEN of my brothers and sisters!! I never laugh harder than when I am with them! I am soaking up the fun before our crazy week of packing starts next week! Will be in and out with posts, and hope to be by your blogs soon!

Hope everyone had a happy 4th of July!

WOW 10 brothers and sisters! that is full house. I had a friend growing up and she had 8 and that seemed like a lot.

How do I stay creative every day? Practice and make something every day whether I like it or not. 🙂

Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this. I do a lot of these things and as such, it was the last one that really rang true for me – and what I will be focusing on.

I am the least creative person ever. So this is so great for me to see! Maybe I can start being creative?

I am so jealous of your 10 siblings! That sounds like a party!
