Inspiration Overload
22nd
2008
Okay girls, I have serious a problem. Please tell me why it is so impossible for me to read through my blog subscriptions without getting inspired to take on some sort of new project? I’m not joking — I’ll intend to spend just a few minutes online every morning reading through all your fabulous blogs and end up putting off my work for 3 hours, bookmarking posts and making a list of things to pick up at Michael’s on my lunch. Then I’ll actually go and buy all those things and spend that evening working on a crafty project, when what I really should be doing is dealing with this mess:
100 Points to the first person who can spot the nipple shield.
So much pink. And fluff. And OMG I am drooling.
Last week, Kerri posted about her 100 Things to do in 1001 Days, Sarah’s over here getting all painty (I’ve decided this is a word), and don’t even get me started on Alyssa’s Craft Challenge, which Steph has already completed… you non-procrastinator, you! :)
Oh yeah, then there’s this, this, and this, which I’ve managed to buy supplies for (anyone up for making a felt pomander? Because I can safely say I’m the expert now. When will I ever need that skill, seriously?), have read a dozen tutorials on embroidery, started 2 cross-stitching projects, and somehow managed to keep my head from exploding.
Crafty blogs are off limits for the time being… at least until I wash all those onesies.
Aww, thanks for the linky love! Hee – painty! Well, if “linky” is a word, so is “painty”! Dang, I really wanted to do Alyssa’s challenge but now it’s the last minute and I still need to get to Michael’s! Aii! Oh man — all of Maddie’s new little things are so adorable!

Ugghh I know just what you mean. Except I don’t have a cute pile of baby stuff to deal with :) Soooooooooo cute agggh! I really wonder what I do in my “free” time that deters me from getting things done! I’m gonna be the procrastinator I am and do my project tonight!

You are so funny! What a busy little bee you are. All of those little pink, frilly, fluffy baby items are adorable.

Oh my gosh, I could just ROLL in all that cute baby stuff!! I haven’t done anything either though… so don’t feel bad.
FUN CRAFTS!!! I’ve been in a crafty mood lately too.

Add me to the “crafty mood” list too! I keep adding projects to the list…now I just need to start one or two or three of them! And really, could you have any more adorble pink stuff…I think not!

I know what you mean about finding so many new projects! I have a huge list of crafts to do, it grows pretty much everyday too.

Don’t worry, the nesting will takeover. Of course, that could be what’s driving this, too… But the good news is, the onesies are so small you can pretty much wash them all in one batch. Easy! Now are you going to show us your crafts?

I have unfortunately fallen victim to this as well. I was not a crafter until I started reading crafty blogs. Lucky for me, you have given me some new blogs to stalk.. I mean, read. Thanks!
