Life can get SO busy.
*Family
*Church
*Sports & afterschool activities
*House
*Occasional Self Time( yup, a mom needs some alone time)
*Work
It can ALL get a little overwhelming sometimes. That is why I fell in love with this…
“CRE8TIME is a movement, a movement supported by a group of people who want to make a positive social change. As our lives become increasingly crowded with “responsibilities,” we tend to ignore ourselves and find it difficult to justify creative pursuits; they seem “selfish” and are often the first things we discard. It’s time to reclaim our creativity! It is designed to help people recover eight hours a month and devote it to their particular craft, and to create a place for them to share their experiences – the joys, lessons, and results – with the creative community at large.”
How Cool is this? An organization that encourages you to bring back CREATIVITY into your life! Everyone needs a little creativity in there life. It helps you clear your mind, heal your heart, get closer to your loved ones , and get back to the BASICS! So AWESOME!! I adore this! To find out more information about cre8time, and to join this movement, you can visit their site HERE.
Here is how our family has been putting a little CRE8TIME into our lives this month.
Fabric Painting Colorful T-shirts with friends and ilovetocreate’s wonderful products.
Making homemade cake pops and learning to decorate them. We used Kuretake’s paper punches to punch shapes out of edible paper.*grin* Even though some of us were sick we still joined in! Ashley is beading a print I made with Faber-Castell Gelatos.Jessica wanted to learn how to use liquid water colors on stretched canvas. I think that she is a natural at it!
Me, well….you know me. I just love playing with anything colorful when I have a chance! It is so relaxing and just puts a smile on my face!
