I have spent lots of creative time in my studio this past week. The inspiration that got me going was a charming little flower arrangement perched in front of the kitchen sink. My daughter Liz had placed a single magnificent zinnia and a sprig of white something-or-other in a little glass (repurposed capers jar) by the chopping board where we spend a lot of time and energy every day. While shelling a ridiculous amount of fresh black-eyed peas, I feasted my eyes on the arrangement. That was the creative spark for the week! From zinnias, I segued into sunflowers and then a crafting spree of headbands.
The headbands started out as "let's get the hair out of your eyes" hair ornaments for the kids and then into some for adults.
"Princess of a Thousand Curls" Sage is the beautiful model here.
The headbands have turned into a "nana/nano" business and my hands now sport hot glue burns along with turquoise-stained fingernails from thalo paints. Ah, the price of creating.
Visit me at my Etsy store.
Hugs, Marcy
