In the Etsy Shop...

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!

  1. 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.
