Creative Weekend To-Do List

An artist paints, dances, draws, writes, designs,
or acts at the expanding edge of consciousness.
We press into the unknown rather than the known.
This makes life lovely and lively.

Happy Weekend friends! Hope you’re staying cool and refreshed in this hot summer heat. I’ve enjoyed a short work week after coming back from a long weekend at the beach on Wednesday, but am still very excited about the Saturday and Sunday ahead. It’s been a long time since I have gone away on vacation and I’ve forgotten how jarring it is to come back to a busy desk and dirty home.
Productivity is on the top of my agenda for the days ahead, but that isn’t going to stop me from enjoying some delightful creativity. The following collection of creative to-do’s are intended to inspire extraordinarily joyful weekends. Consider this a friendly tap—or slight tug—towards exploring creative shenanigans of your own desires. I invite you to join in!
take the plunge & order a filofax
research local yoga studios
dream up an ideal routine for daily bliss
drop by the office to get ready for a rockin’ week
think about living by these rules
respond to emails & blog comments
read a book by the pool
explore etsy for new wall decor

one of my favorite summery, creative to-dos is to play with sidewalk chalk! one summer i made a huge chalk mermaid on the sidewalk. this summer, i left little chalk hearts in various places around town. pure fun!
you’ve got a great list!
this is a great list
Well, what I like to do on sunday mornings above all is go to the farmer’s market, it’s just wonderful and so distressing.
I haven’t heard anyone say “Filofax” in more than a decade. Gala Darling and you are amazing. Way to rock it retro stylie!
I love the “dream up an ideal routine for bliss” idea. I think I will make one where anything is possible. And one like the one in the link you had where it is in reach just waiting for you to make it happen. ( – :
