A summer "artjunk" Survey!~I need feedback!
Have a great day my friends. I'm going to announce a giveaway soon, so stay tuned...still putting it together. I'd like some feedback on what you'd like to see/hear more about this summer as my time will be somewhat limited. You can pick one or two or none. I tend to be all over the place and I need you all to focus me!! Please respond in the comments or email me, artjunkgrl@yahoo.com.
1. Art Journals, making, completing, prompts, supplies, etc. (I may be able to work on a few "tip-in" pages if you would like to send me a loose page and collage bits).
2. Inchies. We want to see more inchies. (I have a bunch I haven't posted). I still make them. yeah.
3. Your life. We want to see more about your everyday boring life...not as much art junk.
4. Your junk. We love seein' your junk. Show us more, we know you have a secret stash of goodies. You haven't even shown us your teacups yet...
5. Art Studio-We want to see your art studio already. Are you done yet?
6. Blogtalkradio- we'd like to hear you interview more art peeps.
Ok, I think that's it. Boy did I get a wild hair today! I guess I'm feeling the need for some direction here. If I don't have alot of interest, I may go on a summer respite. Let me know your thoughts. It's hard to know with blogging because sometimes it feels like there is no one out there. Well, that's not completely true. I know you all are out there, but I think some feedback would be helpful from you...I'm just tossing these things around as I'm doing my (late) spring cleaning. I'm almost done cleaning out my clothes closet. I am hanging on to this one pair of skinney jeans. I don't care what oprah says. I'm not getting rid of it. So I digress, as I throw out the rest of the old, it's time to bring in some new. Wow, I've gotten alot of cleaning done since my computer crashed! Another reason to think about focussing my time online...but then I don't want to blog less if there is an interest in my sharing...cause I like to share and inspire others. And the whole polka-dot thing...we can have fun with that.. .maybe even a swap. Ok, I better get back to cleaning. I'm sorry to be so mish-mosh today. Anyhoo...I promise, double promise pics of my studio soon. I still don't have my computer back from the shop, so I've been lazy about loading pictures on the family computer.
talk soon, I hope. xo lia





I keep drooling over those polka dots lady ;)
Definitely numba 1 and 4 (I come from a long line of hoarders and we loves the junk!)

All of the above. I tend to be all over the place too although it doesn't show on my blog - maybe I should start a second one for all my starts, stops and in-betweens. I just found your blog today looking at stuff via the http://www.inchybyinch.blogspot.com blog. Enjoyed my visit so much I gotta save your page for sure. Nope, it might feel like it but you are not alone out there in blogland. Have a great day!

More of everything!! Can't get enough ArtJunkGirl :D
I stop by much more often than I comment - I'm a naughty blogger ;)
Love & Hugs, Suze xXx

I read your blog to see what YOU feel like sharing! If you are working on journal pages, I want to see that. If you feel like writing about a creative issue, I want to read that. Whatever is on your radar screen is what I want to see. I've missed Lia the last few months.
I enjoy blogs because they are personal and specific to the people who nurture them.
Not sure this is particularly helpful (grin) but that's my five cents.
Posted by: Jeannine | 05/21/2008 at 04:17 PM
I love your photo collage.
I'm just starting the world of art journaling so prompts would be right up my alley. I love your blog and stop by every day for updates! Keep it going!
Posted by: Lisa | 05/21/2008 at 06:30 PM
I love to read about numbers 2 and 4, with a little number 1 thrown in, ha,ha! In chies, junk, and journals! But in the end, you've got to post what and when you want, it's your blog! Take care, girl! Hugs :)

As a newbie crafter, i'd love to hear more about Art journals, making, completing prompts, supplies-- from the master!
And it would be cool to hear more about your life-- who is this fabulous artist that I check in with and admire the work of?
Posted by: Rob | 05/22/2008 at 10:39 AM
Mainly 1,2, & 5, but all of the above and then some is good too!
Posted by: Verna G. | 05/22/2008 at 10:55 AM
Definately Art Journals & your Art Junk. We all love getting new ideas on goodies we can hoard!
Posted by: Tautchia | 05/22/2008 at 11:04 AM

Yes we are out here. I'm happy to read anything but would definitely like to see the art studio.
Posted by: Lynne | 05/23/2008 at 01:59 AM
Art journals....please!
Posted by: bonnie | 05/23/2008 at 06:20 AM
I'm not one to restrict anyone's creativity by imposing my personal preferences, but... for me your art journals are the big draw. Keep up the good work!

Have a great summer!

Lia, we love all of your posts, cause we love you!
Posted by: rosalie ackerson | 05/23/2008 at 07:22 PM
#1, #2, #5, and/or all of the above! :)
Posted by: Rachel | 05/24/2008 at 08:25 AM
Lia, I so enoy your blog that any of the items you mentioned would be wonderful to hear about. Creativity permeates many areas of our lives, does it not? So to try to categorize or diminish departments would mean we would miss something wonderful about you. Please feel free to talk about whatever is going on in your life or your art on that given day, because it's happening in our lives, too! Don't look at your blog as a chore, but look at it as a place to let stuff out of that beautiful, creative mind of yours. Share what makes Lia happy or grumpy or peaceful or give us a good rant once in a while. We have our big girl panties on; we can take it.
So, remember, we're on your side. Those that aren't can go elsewhere!
Love Ya!
DJ

They all sound great to me too! Sounds like you can do whatever you'd like and we'll all be happy...

Inchies, love seeing them. Art Journals. Art Studio.
These are the things :)
Posted by: Seuss's Cat | 05/26/2008 at 06:30 AM
I never get tired of art journals or seeing where others work. You are always inspiring and I'd love to see more inchies. I'm a huge fan of them. Hugs and thank you.
