Creativity is Not a Hobby; it's a Way of Life!
I love making ornaments for our Christmas tree. There’s just something so special about having something handmade to decorate with year after year. I even have some that others have made for me and each time I see them, I remember those people fondly. It’s amazing too how simple paper can be manipulated into beautiful […]
It’s that time again! Halloween is nearly here and we are celebrating with another round of Craft Lightning. I decided it was just about time that I share some more paper quilling projects here. My paper quilling posts are really popular with you guys and I’m sorry that I just don’t have more of them […]

If you would prefer not to pass out candy at your child’s Valentine’s Day party, how about these super cute Pencil Arrows instead? They are really quick and easy […]
I love taking part in these Popcorn Box Blog Parties hosted by Laura Kelly! It’s such fun to take something as simple as a popcorn box and use your creativity to turn it into something fun for Halloween. Last year I made a Haunted House Luminary and this year, I came up with these cute […]

Whew. It was not easy to narrow down this list of My Favorite Books of 2018. It was a really good year of reading! There were so many riveting books which grabbed my attention and then just wouldn’t let go. Some people binge watch TV (I do that too at times), but with a really […]
Inspired by one of my favorite blogs Brocante Home (who was in turn inspired by a feature in Harper’s Bazaar written by Diana Vreeland), Why Don’t You is a new weekly feature here on Creative Cynchronicity. It’s a bit of an extension of Cyn’s Month with a week’s worth of suggestions for adding a little […]
I tried this concept out for a little while last year but it seemed like no one was reading Cyn’s Month. It still lived on but in the archives, hidden away. Well, in reviewing my stats and reading some emails, it seems that Cyn’s Month was actually a favorite feature for some of you. So, […]
This is my first full week back to work after the holidays. I did actually do some work during the break but I kept it to the bare minimum and really allowed myself some down time. It. Was. Glorious! Don’t get me wrong. I love my job. I love the writing and the creativity and […]
