Working with the seasons - WOYWW

Well we’ve slipped into Autumn this week and for us it’s been a busy end to the summer.  We’ve had my birthday, our 30th wedding anniversary, Philip and his twin sister Elena’s 70th birthday, a family wedding and a three day music festival.  Hence there’s nothing to show you desk wise and it’s the reason I’ve been AWOL from What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday link up.


So with a clean palette to go into the new season


I’ve been considering what to do next

I’m always fiffing and faffing about,  get easily distracted and have a complete lack of concentration.  Anyone else like that or is it just me ?

So I’ve given myself a good talking to and come up with a plan to work with my creative mind instead of against it.  What that means is I’m going to embrace the seasons and create displays and spaces in the house to reflect them.  That way I’ll get the housework done instead of ignoring it and the place being a tip.  

I’ll bring in oranges, browns, reds and yellows with cushions and throws, swap a few rugs round and pull all the blues and summer florals down off my studio walls.

I feel quite motivated now and hopefully once I’ve done this I’ll move onto some crafting.

Fingers crossed.  I’ll let you know next week how it works out.

I’ve not been completely uncreative as I’ve been putting my ramblings down on paper in my notebook. They don’t mean anything to anyone, it’s just me waffling, usually telling myself what I should be doing, what I’ve enjoyed doing and the things I’m grateful for.
