Creativity in Snapshots | Shabby Chic Winter
The view from my window. I never tire of my two big windows and the constant ebb and flow of light they yield. Right now it’s snowing, slow big flakes, outside my window here in Sweden. Falling like there is no hurry in the world. I’m about to wrap some gifts, clean of my messy […]
White pens – awesome and difficult
I love my white pens, trust me on that – but it’s a love-hate relationship. I would use them a lot more if they weren’t so damn difficult to write with. As you can see from this experiment above all of the three writing pens can write on acrylic paint (that is totally dry) but […]
Weekly inspiration: Mighty Micron
Video by Miguel Endara [via Elvie]. Isn’t it inspiring to watch someone else draw/create? I think so. Here are some other sources of inspiration. Enjoy! Mighty inspiration this week The Basics of Documenting a week in your life – a must-read if you want to join the photo project (that I wrote about earlier this […]
Pen love and black flowers
The most recent pen is often my favorite pen, but I do love all my pens. Since filling the Lamy Safari with black ink it’s become my favorite pen both for writing and doodling. I love how the black ink almost makes puddles on the paper, and pens that aren’t fountain pens feel dry and […]
I own a Lamy Safari
I’ve been wanting this fountain pen for a few years, hearing only good things about it. And now I own one. It’s called Lamy Safari and I got it from Jetpens (which was a really bad idea because when it came through customs I had to pay toll for it)! So it is a very […]
Testing the Pitt Brush Pens
For Christmas I got a lot of nice black pens that I’ve been drawing with in the margins of my diary. I also bought myself/got a Manga Set of gray toned drawing pens (along with glue sticks and other pens).

Fuel Your Constantly Creative Brain
You have this amazing brain, a Constantly Creative Brain. I believe everyone is born creative. Maybe you’ve lost a bit of it as you’ve grown up yeah sure, and maybe you need an inspiration infusion every now and then (that is what I’m here for!) but never forget you are a creative being! You’ve got […]
Good writing pens are hard to find
Poetry is the journal of the sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air. Poetry is a search for syllables to shoot at the barriers of the unknown and the unknowable. Poetry is a phantom script telling how rainbows are made and why they go away. Carl Sandburg These days I almost […]
Black acrylic background and popping colors
Paint some pages in your Art Journal black and come over to the dark side with me! Gee, my black paint was starting to dry in the tube, it was about time I got around to using some black. But what to do with the page now, it’s so… dark… You dig through your stash […]
Pens and journals are always on my wish list
Winter delight! So what is a fountain pen then? A pen filled from an external source and containing an ink reservoir that automatically feeds the writing point. [From Answers.com that has a great article about The History of the fountain pen] After my post about my new fountain pen, this is what I’ve been looking […]
Fountain Pen + black ink = true love
I was feeling low on energy and very depressed. Going into the bookstore didn’t help, neither did buying a new white journal with a cover print that looks like lace. You can not buy happiness, it comes in strange and unexpected ways. I know this but I still try every now and then. Then I […]
