Creative Outlets - Putting A Spark In Your Life

No, not like electric outlets—other that creativity can revive our energy and put a spark in our daily lives. We are wired to be creative and discover contentment when we create beauty and utility around us.

It’s no secret; I enjoy writing and photography. Another way I create beauty is using beads. I love designing jewelry, especially earrings and bracelets.

But recently, I discovered the art of making beaded bookmarks. I combine beads and charms to communicate a message while creating something useful.

The seed beads nestle between the pages of your favorite book.

Like these:
Believing is Key

Bring Forth Fruit


Holy Ground


Trust is the Key

  5. Thanks for stopping in, Liz. I also enjoy writing and cooking. Gardening in moderation--I have a small herb garden and that seems to be all I can keep up with.
