Wednesday’s Creative Tip: Bring Along a Creative Activity

As I mentioned yesterday, I am going out of town next week,…. to Hawaii! I will posting as often as I can from this paradise and will be showing you their unbelievable florals through photos. To get ready for this trip, and really any one I take, I plan at least a week ahead of time what creative activities I want to bring to stimulate me. This is an excellent idea for anyone who is interested in pursuing a creative lifestyle. Traveling brings so many new visuals, tastes, music, fashion, colors, you name it, it is different from where you live.
My plan is to bring books, one is:

David Mitchell is such a vibrant and unique author. I can’t wait to hunker down with this book! I read Cloud Atlas and loved it!
I also am going to bring a knitting project for the plane. I have to remember to pack my small scissors, or they will be confiscated by security!
Also, my trusty camera and video camera, which both happen to be in my iPhone!
Small sketch book and pencils to have a sketch journal.
Idea journal for random creative ideas that may pop in my head while absorbing the immense Hawaiian beauty!

Getting ready and wow, am I excited!
