Ingrid Carlsen | DITCH PERFECTIONISM and Embrace the Creative Process | Hand Painted Paper Beadsđź’™ #journaling @karatootie | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
There’s something truly magical about the act of creating with our hands, especially when we’re making something as delicate and beautiful as hand-painted paper beads. Each strip of paper, once overlooked and ordinary, transforms into a tiny masterpiece, rich with texture and color. As the paint glides across the surface, it reminds us that beauty doesn’t come from perfection but from the imperfections that make each bead—and each of us—unique. These little treasures, crafted with love and intention, carry with them a gentle reminder to slow down, breathe, and find joy in the simple act of creating. No matter how uneven the edges or how smudged the paint, each bead is a reflection of the beauty that’s possible when we let go of expectations and allow our creativity to flow freely, as God intended.
