The Blue Ocean Necklace is back in the shop! I know, I know...it's been a little while. I also know I should keep it in stock considering that it is my best seller. What's my problem you ask? Well...
I'll get an idea. I'll mull it over for a while. I'll figure out the best way to build the piece. I'll make it and then I think DONE! NEXT! I get such an amazing feeling of accomplishment that all I want to do is come up with another idea so I can feel it again. It just seems like making something that I've already made would stop me from growing creatively.
I'm slowly starting to realize that this is ridiculous. Whether I make one or fifty of the same piece, it's my creation so I should be able to get that 'high' off of every one that I make. I need to learn to turn the joy I feel from someone enjoying my work into motivating fuel towards understanding that it's okay to go 'back'.
Alright, I have to go now. I have more Blue Ocean Necklaces to make.
See...I'm learning!

I know what you mean. Even though I'm thrilled with a new product that I make, I'm constantly thinking about the next thing. I wish I could create as quickly as my mind dreams things up! :-D The necklace is beautiful.
