I love looking at Hometalk for ideas and also Pinterest. Just remember you are lucky enough to have a craft room:).
I can understand that feeling sometimes as I am running out walls for my paintings. Perhaps having a purpose doing a project for a special someone would help, and also websites like this and others will inspire you to pull off a crafty idea.
Personally I miss those garden and craft shows that were once on HGTV. Sadly no one filled that big void.
What do you have for upcoming events? Baby shower? Wedding? Graduation? Having a goal in mind is a good start. Make gifts tailored to your recipient (like a diaper cake for baby shower, special frames for wedding, etc). Use colors they like & personalize it.
Have fun with it! If it's too much or daunting, it feels like working. Don't forget to play some fun music while you're at it!
I too am almost out of walls..so few walls...so many paintings ! I am trying to slow down my creativity but it's nearly impossible. My problem is...I get very attached to my projects and end up keeping them...sometimes have to walk away.
You might have SAD. Seasonal Affective Disorder. Many people have this during the winter months, because lack of sun sometimes and light. Sit in front of a window, that faces west for about 1 hour if you can. This should help your mood. If it last past 2 months, see your doctor, you may be depressed. Expect to feel better in about a week. There's a book by Norman Rosenthal, which has information on Seasonal Affective Disorder. Feel better soon.
Sometimes you just need to wait it out. You could look at investigating something new or begin looking for crafting, sewing, knitting or crocheting for charity. Sometimes you just need a purpose!
Look around and find a spring project that you would love to do. Something that would make you happy to sit at your front door.
