The Ebay selling is going well so far. I have bids on 3 out of 4 things, and the one without has lots of people watching it, so hopefully someone will swoop in at the last minute to bid. I'm sort of sacrificing the first two items at very low cost and free shipping in order to sell them and get good feedback comments. I'm going to sort things out

Nutella is a gift from the gods.

Glad to hear the Ebay thing is going well!

In my mind I am the most amazing artist to EVER LIVE.

Hahaha, me too, bb. :)

Hahaha! We have so many good intentions! Bleah.

There are a lot of baking recipes on Tastespotting involving Nutella. I might have to check some out...

haha! I love Michael's! They will get you with all the 40% off coupons, just to warn you! ;) Also? Canvas, mod podge, and tissue paper and scrap book paper can make some pretty things!

Maybe you're getting some creativity back, even if it's not in writing!

And glad I'm not the only one to have weird dreams about shows I watch!

[surreallis]

Heh! I think I am kind of being creative, just not writing creative. I've been looking at a lot of You Tube tutorials too. Man, you can learn how to do ANYTHING from You Tube!

[loisarah]

I will have to check out youtube. I usually just do image searches or search "diy" and bookmark tons of stuff... that I'll never make. ;)

Michaels is dangerous. They sometimes have the 25% off everything coupon. That's a nice one. Mod podge! You can create lots of art with this shit. Try it.

I had a Lost dream the other night. I haven't watched that since the first season it was on. Weird.

I got something similar to Mod Podge. Since I'm dabbling in acrylic paints, I got some gesso and matte medium. The gesso works well as adhesive, and the matte keeps the paints wetter. I'm learning so much!

Michael's is like a candy store for creative people. I cannot walk out of there with my wallet intact.:)

But, yeah, it always seems like you'll TOTALLY GO THROUGH WITH IT AND MAKE THAT THING when you're at the store, and then four years later when the supplies are still sitting in the corner, the project still sounds fun, but...::headdesk::

I need to get back into a painting routine...

Very cool about the eBay stuff! If you ever have any questions, my husband is a bit of eBay guru.*g*

Hahaha! And I always have all these ideas, but then I sit down to actually create something and... NOTHING. I have zero idea where to start. So I bought some really cheap,small canvasses to just do stuff on and learn.
