'Trust in what you love, continue to do it, and it will take you where you need to go''.
~ Natalie Goldberg
I am an artist, not necessarily a 'good' artist. In fact I would say that I'm mediocre at best but I do enjoy making 'art'...well, maybe the term 'enjoy' is not quit accurate; I 'need' to make art in some form, be it greeting cards, jewelry, marker renderings and even sometimes writing very bad bad poetry.... I am compelled to make art. When i'm not making art I am restless.
I've been wanting a Lightbox for years. I kept telling myself that I would make one...and I could too -But- I never got around to it. Always something got in the way...
So yesterday...
I went to The Joann's Fabrics website typed in my zipcode and then 'Lightbox' in their search engine and up popped a pretty nice Lightbox on sale for $35.99.
So I went to Joann Fabrics. Turns out...
They- did- not- have- that -Lightbox. In fact they didn't have ANY Lightboxes because they no longer carry them. Nice huh?
So I drove to the opposite end of town to Michael's. Michael's had one Lightbox. Just. One. Lightbox. It was $99.99 -but- I was armed with a coupon for 40% off....so....my beautiful Lightbox ended up costing me approximately the same as the $35.99 would have after factoring in the shipping cost.
