Energizing.

Here are a few books that are really energizing me lately:

52 Projects

I feel like I have been living under a rock.  This book is so in tune with how I view my creative world that I could've written it myself.  I am taking it slowly and savoring the projects.  I got it from the library after reading about it in:

The Creative Family

I have read the author's blog, SouleMama, a few times, but actually heard about the book when I was looking up another book on amazon.  Now I see it mentioned everywhere. 

Alabama Stitch Book

I obsessed about this book until my turn came at the library.  Then I had to stay up late reading it.  Then I had to rush over to Goodwill and buy some old t-shirts since I always throw my old shirts in the rag bin (no more!).  This would be a great birthday gift for me!!!

What are your favorite creative reads these days?

those both sound so good. i read more blogs than books for inspiration (so affordable) but i do love maira kalman's "the principles of uncertainty" and twyla tharp's "the creative habit". i just keep reading them over and over... and i am coveting the new linda barry book "what it is" which looks incredible! keri smith is good, too. do you read her wish jar blog? you might like it :)
