I don't think I've taken time to say that I joined a group about being creative every day. It is for this year and started by the wonderful Leah who has done art everyday month (November). This is for the entire year. I know that there is rarely a day that goes by in which I am not creative, in one way or another, but this will be more about trying to document that more regularly. I realize that it is nearly the end of the month and I have not been documenting my art BUT I have been working slowly, diligently, at cleaning in the basement and particularly trying to organize my art supplies and room. As I've said before - it's about slow as molasses. But I think it will feel about as sweet as molasses too once I ever get it finished.
Here are a number of the boxes I've been decorating in the process of trying to organize all my stamps. I always had to dig through layers of stamps in just a couple of boxes to find the ones I wanted. With this collection of unusual boxes I will be able to, hopefully, have just one layer of stamps in each box. We'll see how it goes. I will be decorating a couple more boxes for yarn and fibres. I've got some of those already in purchased boxes but ran out. Good thing I found some more shoe boxes to empty. Now I can have the fun of decorating them.
And here are some stamps I've been making - fun foam pieces and carved from rubber. I have plans especially for fabric:
I've also been doing a couple of videos in the past weeks for creating. I'll be sharing another one about the farm tomorrow.
angels be with you,

the boxes are great!! and i love the stamps! i've been wanting to try carving some stamps as well. it seems like it'd be a wonderful way to make great collage papers!
Your boxes are beautiful! So romantic and feminine and nostalgic. And your stamps are great!! I keep thinking I'll carve some stamps but never get around to doing it.

Blessings to each of you. I am in the dastardly process of still trying to clean my basement, art space. Later last week I grew tired and had additional challenges.
Then I made some art. Ahhh. I am in the process of trying to gain permission to use music on a video I made surrounding the art. Hopefully it won't take forever. I will be heartbroken if I cannot have the permission. Copyright laws can be very strict.
Hello dear,
I love the look of those boxes. What a great idea using the foam to create images, I didn't know you could do it that way. I feel like decorating everything at sight.

Wendy - I love these pieces! The blue is just beautiful, reminds me of an old quilt I have. By the way thank you for your wonderful comments on my cone. :) Marva
