Hosting My First Ever BNR

Hopefully today's a day of firsts for many! You see, today I am hosting for the first time ever, a BNR for our team 'The Undiscovered Artists of Etsy' and some of the shops included in the BNR today have no sales yet! I have a good feeling about today though! In case your still sitting there wondering what on earth is a BNR? Well in short it stands for Buy and Replace, so a treasury is created, if you want in, then you buy an item in from a featured shop and your item replaces their item, pretty simple. Of course there is a longer version but I honestly don't have the time to get into it now as I already previously mentioned, I'm hosting the BNR today! But I do have a snapshot of this wonderful collection of undiscovered items and I invite you all over to check it out for yourself today at http://www.etsy.com/treasury/4d247536e8988eefac167706/open-team-undiscovered-bnr-round-9-with#4d247d43e8988eef847f7906

10 Ways To Release The Creativity From Within...

Visit Art Galleries or Exhibitions as often as possible.
Try thinking about daily things in rhymes, it will help broaden your vocabulary which is especially usefull for creative writing.
Change your routine, i.e. drive a different route to work, go some where else for lunch.
Open your eyes and actually look at everything around you, you'll be surprised what you see.
Every once in a while try to do something that you enjoyed doing as a child, try to release the child from within, children are after all the most creative beings out there.
Clear your mind at least once a day, if you don't have a clear mind you won't have room for creativity.
Make sure you ask yourself an out of the ordinary question each and every day. i.e. What if the grass grew purple?
Try picturing your life as it if it were a movie or novel, what would happen next? Who would you meet?
Talk to someone or some people that you normally would ignore, they might have something interesting to say.
Carry a pocket sketch book with you always and note interesting things.

If a pig drinks a quart of buttermilk before he starts, And runs a mile before he farts, And the faster he goes, the farther he gets, How far will he go before he shits? Now in order for me to win this bet, I must take you to where the fart was let, A farmer saw the pig pass with buttermilk shooting from his ass. And the farmer knew this to be true 'cause the pig shit buttermilk as he flew. Now if that pig can hold his gas, And run a mile with a puckered ass, it seems to me if he keeps his wits, he can run five miles before he shits. ~ Marve Matlack (RIP)
