5 things for the weekend 22.2
imagination, sustainable diy, book club news, and bananas
I’m starting the year off by feeding my imagination with the Imagination Journal class from Alisa Burke. Last year at the same time I took her Homebody class, and loved it, so taking this one was an immediate no-brainer for me.
I’m enjoying her simple and inspiring no-stress prompts. It feels like I have been taken back to childhood, where the end result was unimportant, all that matters is the process.
This, and the Homebody class are perfect if you just want to do some art exploration. Both these and a number of her other classes are on sale at 50% off at the moment.
Are you doing any creative exploration this year?
