Nesting time...
This is a sheet of images that are soon to be transformed into magnets for the Christmas Sales. I really love seeing them all together in this format.
I haven't done any work for last week or so, except getting things like the magnets and prints etc... ready for Xmas sales. I can feel this nesting thing happening now, it usually comes after I have had a break from creating and it is my body telling me it wants to do something, paint something, create something.
I feel an urgent need to clean my work areas and make sure I am stocked up on supplies, source more supplies, look at my inspiration scrapbooks. In my mind ideas are running around, getting ditched, being altered and reworked... I often have a vague look on my face and people think there is something wrong (I need a sign saying "it's ok I am just nesting" around my neck). A few days of this kind of thing and then I am into a new lot of work.
Now is a good time to be nesting and getting on with new work as I got a call this morning from a gallery to say they have run out and need some more work.
I am also thinking of having another show next year? will see how things go over Christmas and the new year.

They wont be for etsy, we have a local christmas sales event where you can sell things in the few months leading up to christmas. I too like making my own gifts for christmas.
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I see you're from Napier, a very lovely place. I am a Kiwi by birth, came to Australia when I was 22.
Your magnets look great!
I'm trying to get ready for Christmas too. I thought I had all this time, then today I realized that it's November, and next month is Christmas!! Where does the time go??
Good luck with everything!
Oh! I tagged you too :)
