Artful Crafter Miscellany

Just a couple of short updates today…

First, I want to share this lovely note I got from Sherry. This is what makes it all worthwhile :-D

My In-BoxEileen,

I would like to take this moment to say THANK YOU for a very informative site.

As a novice interested in creating my own greeting cards, I have found the information you provided invaluable!!

Thank you,
Sherry

My One-Hour-a-Day Art Update


Second, I want to update you on my effort to set aside an hour a day for my (personal) art. I shared my anti-perfectionism plan last week in my The Hurried-er I Go, the Behind-er I Get post.

It's going very well – not great – but well. In these eight days, I’ve found 3 hours and 35 minutes for my art.

Yes, I'm timing myself. How else would a perfectionist address the situation? The really great news is that I’ve cleared away a whole bunch of unfinished projects that have been nagging at me.

Plus I've put a little dent – really little – in the emails that I let pile up unanswered (4 down, 20 to go); BUT I've handled all the new ones within a day of their receipt. Yes!


My new mantra is, "I'm in control of my Internet use. The Internet does not control me!"
