I’ve been beading all my life but have yet to bead the winning pair of Artisan earrings.
As i completed my daily search through Etsy, looking for Peyote,brick stitch jewelry, i finally came across another shop like mine.
I am thrilled to see someone else bead weaving like myself and creating gorgeous patterns and styles. Its ironic that i would find this shop now considering a recent thread found on an Etsy team.
A woman was ranting about someone whom favorited her item and later duplicated it for their shop. So today as i gawked at the new peyote jewelry shop i hesitated on Favoriting the shop for fear the shop owner may notice my future items resembling hers.
The difference between my situation and the woman from the Etsy team is that I am already a peyote bead weaver. I haven’t bought Miyuki Delica beads, until now, because I couldn’t afford another bead splurge.
Let me inform you I recently moved from Hawaii to Mendocino County with my dear boyfriend. This isn’t the town I’m going to find a job, so I am focusing my energy on my craft.
I am not duplicating or mimicking the styles of this newly found etsy shop I am simply inspired. Inspired to be the best and do the best.
My daily searches through etsy were in search of motivation. It is amazing to see another crafty person developing and creating the way I do.
I will use this as a lesson.
We all have original ideas. We are all inspired by one another. There are no rules to creativity and creation except that we must not take possession of what we create.
If you don’t believe in GOD, then believe in the high power of creativity and inspiration. Creativity does not take possession of our results and products nor does Inspiration take ownership of what we create.
Lets do the same. I will start with myself.
I am inspired and ready to create..
Plus the peyote weaver whom inspired me lives in Singapore! Many seas away. 😉
Wish me Luck friends!
