making stuff isn’t easy

from time to time i have this huge urge to do something creative. i’ve always really wanted to be able to make something cool. unfortunately, i have very little creativity in me. even though i’m really into art and stuff, other than building the ducky car, i really haven’t made anything of my own.

over the last several weeks caryn and i have been toying w/ the idea of building a mobile. we went to several stores to try to get ideas of how to make one. finally, after a lot of brainstorming etc, we came up w/ a plan of how we would design this mobile and what we would build it out of. it’s kind of hard to explain what it would look like w/out drawing it, but basically it would consist of concentric right angles formed out of multi-colored mosaic tiles.

after tracking down the supplies we need to build it (and revising our idea a few times since certain parts did not exist), we spent a whopping 60$ for pieces to make just one mobile. we started putting it together and… ummmm… errr… well, now i have this horrible feeling that the mobile will not work out. all of that planning will probably amount to nothing. argh! oh well… back to the drawing board…
