Does anyone share my frustration? I love diy but I have this massive hang-up where I only learn when it comes to practical application. I need a drawstring bag, costume or the like? I'll sew it no problem. But when I look at the big drawer full of cloth and scrap I collected neatly stored I get these idea of what I could make... and nothing comes to mind. Complete and utter creative block. If I do manage to think of something, it'll just be whacked out home decor (google turns up nothing but that for "fun projects") I don't feel the drive to do. Same thing with most other DIY hobbies, not just sewing.

Currently I'm looking at a buncha LEDs, resistors, push-switches and On/OFF switches and a desire to make something cool or nifty with them, but I haven't come up with anything I could USE at all. I'm all about the practical, and that's cancerous in a way because once you finish, you don't practice or further your skill/craft.

On a side note, also terrible because I kinda want to start making random shit that people might buy at a stall in markets. No set inventory, just all kindsa shit I have learned to make to the best of my abilities.

Does anybody share my feels? Have any advice?
