Kicking Off the August Design Challenge - Finding Inspiration & Pinning Down Your Design

It's here! We're kicking off the first week of the August Design Challenge with a week of inspiration and nailing down your design. Step out of your usual workspace and get inspired? In this episode of the Thriving Maker podcast, hosted by me, Sarah Kavanagh, we kick off the August Design Challenge with a deep dive into finding creative sparks and crafting unique pieces of work.  Capture those fleeting moments of inspiration by keeping a journal handy to sketch and jot down ideas without any limitations. We also explore revisiting old sketches for fresh perspectives and thinking about the story you want your piece to tell. This week is all about honing in on your creativity and meticulously planning your design to ensure you're fully prepared for the next stages of our four-week challenge.

Keeping a detailed record of your design process is crucial, even if you aren't ready to share your work just yet. This habit will not only allow you to reflect on your journey but also share it once your project is completed. For those catching up post-August, there's a wealth of tips and insights to aid in your future design endeavors. Don't forget to stay connected by following the hashtag #AugustDesignChallenge on Instagram and keeping us updated on your progress. Next week's episode will see us moving into the production phase, so prepare to bring your creative visions to life. Join us on this exciting journey and push your creative boundaries to craft something truly extraordinary!
