Feeling so blah...

[Ginger_79]

Gaah, I'm suffering a big moment of "Why can I not be so crafty, stylish, overall inspiring and cool like the pictures from blog and magazines???"

Sometimes I look at Etsy stores, pinterest collections, fashion shots, scrap blogs (just discoveed the awesome Ali Edwards blog, though I kinda knew about her before) and all that. And then I feel uncrafty, my home is boring, I don't cook my own marmalade or sew cool skirts. My pages look uninspired, I never got to write that Fantasy book I dreamed of as a teenager and my fashion style certainly isn't very unique.

I KNOW most of these photos are 100% staged. I know a blog shows ONE aspect of a life and hides a million others. And I know all these things don't necessarily make me a better person. But grrr, do they all have to APPEAR so perfect?

So, do you ever dream those dreams where you float along in wonderful dresses, crafting the most beautiful things to displasy in your beautiful home. In which you serve excellent food to your beloved guests. In the middle of very creative table decorations of course. Or in the garden with lampinons in the tree... And what do you do, when you discover that reality has obviously never read the right catalogues?

Sorry for the babbling, I just needed to get that out.
