1.Want to make your own mandala? Here’s a great resource. One of the interesting things I read by an artist who teaches mandala workshops is that people have a hard time finding the center when they begin. The center of the mandala represents your heart, so it’s interesting that so many people are out of touch with their hearts. It’s all about feeling instead of thinking. Good creative exercise for those of us who tend to overthink.
2. The Naked Scientists on hobbits. Go
listen.
3. Make a hammock! Instructions and a list of materials on Mother Earth News, along with guide to knot-making.
4. Build a
pallet playhouse.
5. Make a water garden.
Learning and doing are great ways to get new ideas, relax, keep your hands busy, and let the brain work on creative developments.
I’m coming to play at your house this summer. lol
NJ, lots of space! : D
That playhouse is too cool. I’d love to be able to do stuff like that, don’t think the neighbors would appreciate it, though. Plus the whole schlepping everything to the third floor. 🙂
Living on a 3rd floor does limit your scope. *g* I think the playhouse project is going to be underway soon.
