Time To Create - Material Musings

 

In this week's Material Musings, I share some of the creative pieces that I have made, it has been a lot of fun working through some of the sessions. Check out one of them below.

Inspired by Lisa Goddard

I really enjoyed creating the landscape and adding stitches that I wouldn't normally use.  I would like to create more of them.

Making Zen ends tomorrow and you can still access the VIP Pass which gives you lifetime access to the 30 pre-recorded workshops, as well as a special gift from each of the presenting artists. There are other resources included too, like the Making Zen ebook and access to some special workshops from the archives of past retreats.  Check out the VIP Pass HERE

Looking forward to having you join us!

Making Zen Starts Tomorrow! - 28th Sept!!

 

We are on the final day before Making Zen Online Retreat starts.

We will be bringing the first set of workshops tomorrow Monday 28th September and it is going to be an amazing start to the retreat.

There will be six presentations available each day and you will be able to view them for 24 hours, as long as you are registered for the retreat.

My workshop Introduction to Trinket Tags will be airing on Thursday 1st October, and I am excited to see what you create.  Make sure to check out the other days for all the other fascinating topics too!

Imagine if you could take off the whole week to focus on your learning, creating and spending time with the creative community, that would be great, then you could watch all 30 presentations and make, laugh and just feel joyful.  But for many it is not a possibility, but there is a solution.

So, If you find that 24 hours of access is not enough, there’s also an option to purchase the VIP Pass, which gives you lifetime access to the 30 pre-recorded workshops, as well as a special gift from each of the presenting artists. There are other resources included too, like the Making Zen ebook and access to some special workshops from the archives of past retreats. 

If that’s something you’re interested in, it’s a good idea to get that now - it’s currently on sale for the Early Bird price of $97, but once the retreat starts tomorrow, it goes back up to the regular price of $147 USD!

Come and join in on the fun, you can get all the details for the free ticket and for the VIP Pass HERE

I hope you join us and have a fun and creative week, if you have any questions about my Trinket Tags you can send me a DM on Instagram @realityarts.

Creating Art Journal Pockets

Art Journal Pockets are fun to create, and in this video we work on an art journal page, whilst also taking time out for ourselves. 

It is also important in your day to find a way to be still, unwind and focus say on your breath, your surroundings, or go out in nature. We should also take time to spend creatively doing something that doesn't necessarily have a fixed outcome.

So I will show you how to create a pocket and then we will spend 10 minutes chill time mark marking or doodling and see where it takes you.

Supplies needed:

• Junk Journal
• Paper for pocket (page from a book)
• markers for doodling
• Bone Folder
• Hot glue gun
• Celotape
