It's so wet & grey outside πβ I thought let's use this time to dream & envision a richer & more colourful reality for myself. π‘ Have you created a visionboard before? It's a perfect way to enjoy some "me" time & get in the zone.. When you choose your images & wording, you have to imagine yourself within that space, feel the energy as if you were there now & get a real sense of achievement as if it's already happened... because it has, you just haven't reached that part of the timeline yet π #Woohoo I love the colour scheme within this visionboard & how I'm taken on a journey through the chosen images. It's also the background on my phone. I'm going to spend some time each day manifesting these images into my reality π©π½βπ¨π Fancy giving it a go?

Hello world of 2022, how do you do? ππ½ββοΈπ It's been a long old time since I've been here, so I thought I'd introduce myself.. My names Caldey & I'm a Creative Designer/Artist. I've made the decision to evolve @itscaldesigns to include not just Graphic Design, but my Arts & Crafts too. I hope you stay to enjoy the journey π I'm interested in gaining new clients & paid opportunities from the Arts & Craft world - DM me for a chat on how we can work together π€ That's where my real joy is, getting messy with different materials, experimenting with texture & colour, exploring my mind through a paintbrush, sewing needle or wool (or whatever else excites & delights me). Since my last post, so much has happened. We've all been there, so no need to go deeper into that one. What I do want to share is working with @craftmydayltd - The most magical studio full of everything to get your creative juices flowing. It's like Aladdins Cave, but the treasure is craft materials instead of gold πππ¨π§΅βοΈπ° It made me realise that although I do love using a computer to design, I absolutely ADORE creating magic with my hands π©π½βπ¨π¨ As everything work-wise dried up, I was forced to dig deeper. What I found was my inner-child asleep in the sunshine, with a colouring pen still in my hand as I lay there colouring in. Not a care in the world, just basking in the sunshine on the doorstep of my beloved family home. What more can I desire than to be so rested, so full & so content? So that's what I've been doing really, soul searching, connecting with my inner-child to make sure she is happy & working with my inner-elder to discover the true path to my riches. I'm in the process of creating various craft items.. what brings you joy? I look forward to sharing more with you & now the secret is out, I look forward to working with you too. I'm still a Graphic Designer, but I'm so much more than that. Let's have a chat about what I can do for you π€π My inbox is open & ready π― π #CaldstaSays #CaldesignsIsBack #CreativeArtist #ArtsAndCraftStyle #OpenForBusiness #AfroArtist #Epsom #Ewell #EwellVillage #Leatherhead #Stoneleigh #Croydon #Sutton #Hackbridge #Coulsdon #Vauxhall (at Epsom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYbp-UsoM__/?utm_medium=tumblr

π΄'π ππππ ππ πππππ ππππππ πππππ πππππππ πππ ππππππ.. & it feels way too formal. I'm just walking this earth Trying to share my ideas. I'm just trying to walk here & not listen to all of these fears. I'm just trying to wake up happy Without feeling to burst into tears. But we smile & we keep it moving, Theres always time for improving. I'm speaking up, I hope you tune in. Are your ears actually listening? Try saying something uplifting. Cos it's like a movie sometimes When the scene just changes Flips on its head & rearranges. It feels like a rollercoaster, But it changes in stages. It's a story switch up.. A matrix glitch up. So wipe your tears, dust yourself off, Pull up your sox for the LEVEL UP!!!!! #CaldstaSays #IAmHurting #SeasonOfChange #UsedToIt #ItStillHurts #RollercoasterOfLife #TimeToHeal #BobbingAlong #SingingASong #Dutchavelli #HoldOn (at Epsom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUcJj9fNlqr/?utm_medium=tumblr

So I tried a lil thing & this is the result. This is my first time using the Shibori folding technic on a large piece of cotton fabric. What do you think? Fun fact: Indigo Dye is one of the oldest colours in the world. How cool is that? ππ We do workshops for adults & children for all sorts of Arts & Craft @craftmydayltd - We love it here π @riahstiedye thanks for the inspiration from your Snowflake Mandela video. I didn't use pens, so my design is all freestyle - You can see the full design in the video ππ©π½βπ¨ #IndigoDye #IndigoTieDye #TieDyeIsArt #MandalaPrint #MandalaTieDye #HiddenFaces #Ancestors #Guardians #ShiboriDesign #CottonFabric #PlantBasedDye #JaquardProducts #1111 #MindOverMatter #ArtTherapyLife #ItTakesTime #MakeSomethingBeautiful #CraftMyDay (at Craftmyday) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTb8-JzKTi6/?utm_medium=tumblr

I don't have all the answers π€·π½ββοΈ I work fuxking hard to be the person I want to be, the personal I am, the person you see. It takes tears, tantrums, triumphs and tribulations, all while trying to figure out what this warped sense of life and everything in it, is all about. I read self-help books, follow self-help pages, I put empowering music on that covers a lot of musical genres. I follow olders, youngers, men, women, thems and theys. I do what I can to expand my sense of self and what I want to represent in this world and what it is that represents my world. I do what I can to grow & reach higher than I've ever been. I treat everyone with the same respect & energy. I have down days, I have happy days, I have days that are a mixture of everything with no time to take stock on what's gone on. I'm not always positive, I don't always shine bright and sometimes tbh I just want a lil bit of violence or a lil oldskool style fight (obvs this doesn't happen π
, so I dance & shout instead haha π£ππ½π¦). Somedays I feel badass, some days I feel pretty and sometimes I just want to be a slob & eat everything shitty. Who gives a fluff?! Honestly?! Just do what the fuxk you want as much as you want. Who has a right to suggest anything different?! WHO?! If you're living happy & not harming.. THEN LIVE YA LIFE BOOOI πβπ½πππ I guess what I'm saying is I am just me, I don't have all the answers and I don't claim to..SEEN!!! Go & find your own way to feel blessed in this beautifully ugly and magical world.. #CaldstaSays #IDontHaveTheAnswers #FindThemYourself #IHopeThatHelps #GoLoveYourself #YouGottaHelpYourself #LifeIsAPersonalJourney #HelpYourMind #HealYourselfFirst #YouDeserveIt #WhatAreYouProjecting #DontBeToxic #MakeAChange #StartToday #ImNotWhoIUsedToBe #NorShouldYouBe #DaFuq π€·π½ββοΈ (at My Mind) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTCUKAYq2AX/?utm_medium=tumblr
