RiBBoN My RiBBoN

where shall I tie you today
what will you hold together
what gift will you embellish
what kite will you fly
what ballon will you capture
before it can fly


RiBBoN My RiBBoN
who's hair will you beautify
who's shoe will you bind
which button hole will keep you
what creation will give way to you


RiBBoN My RiBBoN
why are you in a jar
why are you on the floor
was the wind blowing
were you wrapped around flowers
you don't belong in a drawer


RiBBoN My RiBBoN
I will reuse you when your done
I can pass you over to a friend
I will give you more things to do
I will even love you enough to share


RiBBoN My RiBBoN
lets start the day
lets learn how to play
lets twist and twirl
lets learn to unwind
lets make friends with that ball of twine


RiBBoN My RiBboN
heres a bell for your tail
heres a sequin or two
heres a needle and thread
heres a pillow for my head
I can tie you on there
I can put you between pages
as I read a book
I can wrap you around a little black hook


RiBBoN My RiBBoN
there are many more jars
they have buttons and lace and shiny things
but today you are the centre of my little world
you inspire me to create and write down these words


RiBBoN My RiBBoN
I thank you
you might be a simple thing
but just look at what you can do

RiBBoN My RiBboN you became a beautiful bow !

The article "Brushed Up" is my favorite, because this is the way my brain works too. I see broken things as useful.I can imagine ways to repurpose things, I was doing that kind of aRt before the word repurpose was a buzz word.LOL,

Layers of Paper and Other things

Wow..I never knew how many things I would find when I reorganized my Studio..

Layers of paper scraps and other things....

that are good for my next creation, tiny little charms that got lost in a shuffle,are now in their proper place; the cutest little jar..lined up next to several other cutest little jars..an old drawer I was meaning to paint and use as a shelf, got painted and is now used as a shelf..I found the ribbon I bought, then lost and bought again..I am working on places to stash my pages and pages of ideas , cutouts and stickers, putting paints in their baskets and rubber stamps in big jars..looking at things in a completely new way.
But that was just the first two days...lots more to shuffle, change and put away !

It will all be worth it in the end.but , in the meantime....
I am wanting so badly to Create.

I find myself looking at things I could use for this or that..it's hard to keep on my reorganizing "hat"..

I have to keep thinking... 

Next time I stand among things that tickle my fancy , I will know where to find them ..and. this will help the creative process flow
Things will be waiting to use ,the next time I need them....right there on the shelf, where I last laid them.

and that my friend..is what keeps me going..
I guess I will always have..
  Layers of paper scraps and other things
it just seems to be the cycle of creating.
