What is your Thing?

sigh….so true…welcome to my life ;)
[vimeo 15182896 w=400 h=300]
Are you procrastinating too?
Nat
P.S.:
That is so me too!! I only wish I could procrastinate that creatively :)
Love it! Forwarding this immediately to my hubby, who is outside with his computer and his designing partner. They are having a ball, watching a bunch of videos, and I KNOW nothing is getting done on the project they got together to focus on! Lol!
I so love this video Nat!
At the end it says something about a kit and I could think of was how creative I would be if I had THAT kit. Silly me, I have more supplies here then the average small store…I just need to use them!!!
Love the quirky things that you share on your blog.
LOL! I loved it!!!!
Love this!!!
I so wish I could procrastinate like this!!! Love it!!!
Brillant! We’ll see if I start proscratinating now that I’m officially a SAHA…that
‘s stay at home artist ;)
Ich verstehe zwar den Sinn nicht *Asche auf mein Haupt*, aber das zeichnerische Talent ist ja sooo toll anzusehen. *etwasneidischbin*
Ach ja, bist du das?
LG samsch
leider bin ich das nicht- ich kann gar nicht zeichnen ;) Das Video zeigt wie jemand, der etwas kreatives auf ein weißes Blatt Papier bringen will, alles möglich malt, zeichnet und kreatives macht, aber eben nicht auf dem weißen Blatt Papier ;)
If only my procrastination looked like that video! Mi’e a more of a wandering around, white paper only type of thing. :-)
I think that is so true- if you loose your curiosity life gets bland – another wonderful video I would love to share with you

What are you curious about lately? :)
Nat
As a scientist by trade, and at heart, I am curious about so, so many things! Lately my curiosity has been focused within: Who am I, and what do I want my life to look like? How would I like to spend my days, and can that be molded into a new career and contribute to the financial support of my family?
A great, thought-provoking video!
Curious video. I did not hear sound and then realized that maybe it didn’t have it for a reason (made me watch more intently anyway).
I am curious about what foods I will like to eat (after being diagnosed with diverticulitis) and how our trip to Washington, D.C. will go in July. I expect to take tons of photos and get lots of inspiration.
I am curious about many things and especially about art, new art supplies and new tehniques.
Thank you so much for sharing. Love the message X Tineke
I loved the messages in this video

What is your inspiring dream?
Have a gorgeous sunny sunday :)
Nat
hugs Nat!
How wonderful. I feel like I should watch it every morning!
My passion right now is going to the dog park and meeting new dogs and people.
I have met two wonderful new friends there in the past 6 months.
Thanks Nat!!! You’re the best:)
Lovelovelove that!!
Truely inspiring. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing , that is great and so true
Cheers
Mary
Thanks, Nat! I needed that!
A catchy tune in German is called an Earworm – literally translated. Meaning you can’t stop singing the song in your head. I actually like the word – you say Ohrwurm :)
Such an Ohrwurm I shared in my Über*Media Acrylic Paint Online Workshop in the 3rd lesson published monday (you can sign up anytime – but right now you join in real-time over the next weeks).
It is by Django Django and called Default – a song I can’t get out of my head and I love the video!
[vimeo http://vimeo.com/35527420]
What’s your Ohrwurm right now?
Have a wonderful catchy tuned day ;)
Nat
My current earworms (and yes – I use that term too!) are “Somebody that I Used to Know” by Gotye, “I’m the One that’s Cool” by The Guild, and “I’m an Imagineer” by The Imagineers.
PS – I rather like the music choices you pick for your videos – I get to hear music that is new to me.
LOL- I am glad you like it- I have a weird music taste sometimes ;)
Luck of the Draw by Bonnie Raitt but it changes daily depending on what song my hubby or son “puts” into my head before they walk out the door. LOL
Today it is Jennifer Lopez ft Pittbull – On the floor.
Very catchy and summery song.
Dance Moves with Ohrwurm :)
Die Ärzte: Sohn der Leere.
Oh yeah! Habe die Ehre. Ich bin der Sohn der absoluten Leere.
Am singing it nonstop since yesterday.
Hadn’t seen the video before… Cool! Great Ohrwurm too, mine usually are the songs you rather not have in your head :-s
tehehehehe, marsha, like what? ;)
Sent from my iPad NEW Website: http://www.nathaliesstudio.com
Don’t have one right now, but you will be the first one to know if one pops up, OK?!
LOL- OK ;)
I thought this video was pretty awesome- and I wanted to share it with you – love the message :)

Here are some pictures of the canvas book. Or Rug book (in the video also referred to as the Rock book- LOL ;) )
And now back into my studio and doing things ;) – I do have to remind myself still constantly to life up to my own words, procrastination is such an evil friend…actually procrastination is just pretending to be my friend…LOL.
What do you like to procrastinate?
Have a gorgeous day
nat
ach gott ich hol mir immer wieder gern nathalie ins wohnzimmer ;-)
lol – kleiner witzbold ;)
Yep, that’s why I’m here… procrastinating away…
LOL ;) And that’s why I respond…also still procrastination ;)
For the creative Jump Start I had done two videos actually – one was more an inspirational talk- which I will show later again – and one was how I actually go out and get Inspiration for free :) And I wanted to show this video again on my regular blog.

The graffiti in your area is very different from what we get around here. In my area, it’s nothing more than vandalism and an eyesore – there’s no art in it at all.
Natalie thanks for sharing this again.. i AM inspired all over again,,,,and boy do i need it!!!
I love street art…it’s such a free form of art! Thanks for sharing your video and inspired art piece. Very cool:)
Thanks Nat!!! Love the way the heart came out. This video inspired me last time and once again inspires me now. Thank you for sharing it again:)
Some of you JumpStarters may have seen the amazing video by my spanish friend Cuchy in which she shows how to create a great textured paper plate made out of toilet paper.
One of Cuchy’s main tools for this techniques is a Big Shot. Now what do you do if you have no Bigshot? You…think out of the box like our JumpStarter Anje – The Crafty Cone – …check it out…it is awesome and too funny!
[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOPOKg6ldVc]
Thank you Anje so much for sharing!!!!
If you haven’t seen the original video by Cuchy, check it out on her blog.
I so love it! It is so fun to see what all the JumpStarters are getting inspired to do with the videos and posts from the Creative JumpStart !

Alter yourself! Mixed media workshop – Altered art
M. Carmen Sánchez – Cuchy – Saturday June, 23rd 2012 – 16.00 hs.
We’ll create an altered object which holds a variety of ATC’s with lots of techniques, that we’ll make also in the class.
Among the “dirty” materials we’re going to use, we have candles, patterned tissue paper, film plastic, embossing powders, acrylics, folders and dies for BigShot, bubble wrap… we’re going to iron our supplies (yes, with the iron you use at home), and as always, we will get dirty.

Haremos un objeto alterado para guardar una colección de ATCs de técnicas que también haremos en el taller.
Cuanto más rápido trabajemos, más tarjetas haremos
Entre los materiales que vamos a utilizar, contaremos con cera de vela, papel tissue decorado, plástico transparente, polvos de embossing, acrílicos, troqueles y plantillas de relieve de la bigshot, plástico de burbujas, vamos a planchar (si, si, con la plancha de casa) y alguna que otra cosilla y como siempre, nos ensuciaremos mucho.

Check it out on our Art Mesa Blog
Looking forward seeing you there :)

HAHA! This is so funny, hilarious but also genious at the same time. I´m sure my neighbours would call the doctor, if I started doing this in front of our house :DD!
LOL- It is so funny- I know . It was wonderful to finally meet you Sanna :) Huge hugs! nat
Hysterical!!! I want to come and take your classes they look FABULOUS & get to meet Cuchy…oh man that would be awesome ;)
Brilliant ingenuity! “Use what you have” is one of my mottos, so truly loved the surprise! Also, the end result is beautiful! Would love to see what next became of your pressed blooms! :)
I think I’ll keep this video to myself, my husband already thinks my crafting has taken over the house, heaven forbid I start using his garage ! This was so clever.
Ahh, I have the Honda “Big Shot” and the Starbucks water holder already!
How creative to use one’s car to create art.
Eres un solete!!! :)
Muaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacks!
