admiring

Posted on November 16, 2011 by thirdstoryies
I was very struck by these lovely paper flowers when I saw them.  And then I realized what is triggered in me when I see something that I truly think is beautiful.  I instantly want those materials in front of me, as well as an open stretch of afternoon and no interruptions.  Not to copy what is there, but to just be open to the possiblity of creating something beautiful. 
Which reminds me – I have a BIG project in mind for after the holidays, and after getting further down the road on my sister’s house project.  I’m so excited!  (About it all – the holidays!  My sister’s house!  My BIG idea!)
