Need to boost your creativity?

Both of the photos used here are from the gluebook group on Flickr from petalthrow Exercises to unleash creativity and get your mind flowing are plentiful. I try to keep a list of them to use when I feel like I’m in a rut, and need a new perspective on things. -Read some new blogs, some that are not in your area of interest, I never fail to come up with something to add to my list of things I want to try when reading blogs. Bloggers are tremendously creative people. Likewise with podcasters. 1-Start a journal! Sit down and write nonstop for 15-20 minutes per day, about anything, as fast as you can, don’t think and see what happens. You will be surprised. 2-Start a gluebook, Yahoo gluebook group , gluebooks ideas , more on gluebooks , Flickr gluebook group 3-Turn OFF the TV, seriously, it is a big time and brain suck. Turn it off and you will be surprised what happens, with your children also. - The Creative Habit by Twyla Tharp , I highly recommend this book! - Pikaland

This and that, searching for inspiration and gluebooks

Off today and have a list of "things to do". I've been in a cleaning mood lately, so I'm going with it. Clearing away and decluttering, I have found I can not be creative if my house (especially my sewing room) get too messy. I clean and this room ends up, well a catch all for everything that does not get to its proper place. So, needless to say, no knitting has occurred yet. I am working on a gluebook . Thanks to Paula the Quilter, *take any kind of journal, book whatever. It can be printed or not *take magazines and cut out words or pictures that appeal to you *glue the cut outs to pages in your book *add journaling or not, check some out here.   Flicker group here.
