I love making things with craft marbles. These marble magnets have been a huge trend in crafting. I recently made up a batch of craft marbles just so I could try & make jewelry out of them. However, I had some sort of crafting block. You know it’s like writer’s block, but with crafting. If you are experiencing the same thing whether it’s crafting, or graphic design here are a few tips. These should work anytime where you are supposed to just “Use what you like” & you can’t remember what it is that you like.
1. Monograms. People usually like themselves, & their names. Plus, these are really easy to make since it’s just a letter.
2. Textures. Just gather several textures in your favorite color. As long as you have a favorite color you’ll be fine. This will help you keep the set, or web design, cohesive while still being unique.
3. You can always use a favorite word, or a group of favorite words to convey what is important to you.
4. Look around your house & find the things that you love, why did you choose them? What do they have in common?
Just say no to crafter’s block.
