How Creative Are You ?

Contributor: Delete My Account Delete My Account
I was thinking about how creative everyone can be especially when it comes to being in the bedroom. Then I started wondering how creative folks where out of the bedroom. In the past I have found my most exciting partners, including my current, have all been creative people in their daily lives. Painters, sculptures, writers, musicians, crochet experts, jewelery designers, chefs and more. So I wanted to know more about your creative talents (outside the bedroom wink wink) and if you got links show them off. You can check out some of my work on my facebook portfolio link.

I hate Facebook. I really do. It's so stupid, to me, that you have to have an account to view profiles.

But that's not what you asked, is it? Lol.

My husband and I run a photography club and have accounts on deviantART that have various things we've written, photos we've taken and digital art we've made. link That's me.

I write erotica as well but that usually gets posted to our personal site. link

I gotta learn the tags for this forum. Is it just plain html or normal forum tags or...?

I sing in various choirs at my college, make jewelry, seriously dabble in adobe photoshop and illustrator, draw (the old fashioned way), act, mime, write (prose and poetry), knit, and make costumes for a theater group.

My boyfriend plays guitar and bass, and once in a while uses the lovely baritone he tries to hide. He also writes poetry and music (of the punk variety).

Can you guess which of us is the more creative in bed? But to his credit, in bed he's like a Jazz musician: hum a few bars for him, and he can wing it.

Alan builds things (as in woodworking) and does ghost writing.

I play guitar (metal & rock), dabble in photography, sew, ghost write, and generally have some form of art project going on that involves drawing or painting something.

I'm a freelance writer and I sew, knit, paint and just crafts in general. My husband and I both enjoy photography. He also likes (and is very good at) drawing and painting. He's favorite creative venue is definitely photography and he has his work in a gallery.

Creativity is a part of our life!

I play the piano, guitar, and violin. I write a lot of poetry, as well as stories (working on a novel - I always wanted to be the next Stephen King). I quilt my own designs, and do a lot of photo and video work.

My husband always wanted to be a chef, so he concocts some interesting dinners!

I cook, sew, knit, make various window displays in my store, dabble in photography.

My boy is an amazing photographer, he writes his own music, both electronic and guitar. Haha, one would think I'm the one in the relationship XD

I love to dance. I write poetry and stories. I'm a very good makeup artist, and I have a flair for fashion. And once upon a time I played piano and sang. I still want to learn to play the drums though.

When I'm not writing for SexIs or creating new classes for my students, I am a voracious knitter. I have hundreds of skeins of yarn stashed away for when I need it; I usually knit socks all the time but also have other projects going (currently I'm working on a lace shawl, and picking out a sweater pattern for me to start knitting once it's cool enough for me to stand touching that much wool).

Interesting topic. I've never really thought about the link between creativity outside the bedroom, and inside the bedroom. As for me, I play several musical instruments, enjoy photography, love woodworking, and test my hand sewing things for my wife when I can find the time.

I really enjoy Interior Design! I've never done it professionally, but I'm the go-to gal when all my friends and family need help planning out the design of a house. I guess I just have a good eye, my husband thinks it's freakish that I can always hang a picture or something with out markings or a level and it always comes out perfectly straight. I have a knack for seeing the beauty in things others don't, such as a beaten up table that someone has thrown in the trash...I can make it a masterpiece =)

I am a 4th generation seamstress. I have made my own clothes for years, and now make my kids clothes, too. The fun part for me though, is that instead of just following the patterns that my grandmother taught me to understand, I LOVE to add my own twist giving it a unique and more trendy look. My current hobby is actually creating clothes in "Project Runway" style, where I can just put together fabrics and create a look without following someone else's design. Tim Gunn... call me.

Many of the people I've worked with have their talents in all different sorts of creative outlets. Personally, I enjoy crocheting a little, knitting alot. Some day when the kids are old enough to stay out of spaces I would love to turn our spare bedroom back into a stain glass studio. My favorite creative outlet of all but small kids + small shards of glass=emergency room visits.

I'm a researcher in my normal work, even-though that doesn't sound especially creative, I am known around the lab for coming up with creative solutions to problems. Other than that, I think I pump a lot of my creativity into my website these days.

I sew, cook, crochet, scrapbook, and teach paper crafting classes. I also make all my own body chains...

My life revolves around the arts. I'm a classical musician with a passion for songwriting-- I tend to stick with folk rock, I just don't feel I do well with any other genre.. I write a lot of lyrics, poetry, and a few papers that made getting extra credit in high school a cinch- now I mostly focus on erotica or talking about all the crappy sex I had before I met my husband. I cook, often deviating from recipes, I especially love getting creative with Italian. I also paint, scrapbook--- I do a lot of home decorating, flower arranging, and I refinish old furniture. I worked for many years as a wedding consultant which means playing dress up with brides, I've chosen a lot of gowns in my day and accessories to compliment them. And I also like working with images, I take piss poor pictures but I love editing them.

My husband on the other hand does not sing, does not dance--- but he draws beautifully and I think he's a better writer than I am.

As far as who is more creative in bed that would definitely be me. My head is constantly full of thoughts, I'm always trying to alter things or develop a different way of doing them.

I appreciate art in all it's forms. I've always felt like I could be creative, but I have never found the time to explore. I love to write. I always wanted to play guitar, so far as close as I've come to that is Guitar Hero and Rock Band... does that count? lol

Well Mr. G... I am a mom, which takes much creativity on it's own! As a mom I have to teach AND entertain... come up with meal ideas... decorate the home... make sure your kid has the best cupcakes in class... You get the idea.

On top of that I write. This mama writes (and vlogs) for 6 different outlets! Why do I take on so many outlets? Because it's what I love to do! Writing is such a release for me (besides that other release... you know?)

Finally, I design children's clothing! When I'm not out saving the world or meeting fantastic people through social media or baking cookies... I design little clothes for little people. It's so much fun to buy the different fabrics and put them together in such a way that people ask... "Hey, can you make me one of those?"

Thanks for asking Drew!

xoxo

I absolutely LOVE this answer. I never thought of being a mom quite that way...THANKS!!! I remember a mom and I tried to one up each other all year last year (we really are good friends), and we made elaborate cakes and caramel apples and such. That part of being a mom expresses creativity and fun.

As far as bedroom creativity, that's J. I just sort of do what I am told.

I write creative non-fiction, poetry, and lists. I write and designed a small collection of weblogs, including Schmutzie.com, and I also write for MamaPop.com. I sometimes create mastheads for other people's weblogs. I build creatures and dolls. I've started to learn to bake. I used to sew quilts and purses and might get back into that.. I am also a photographer, and just shot a wedding recently. I am addicted to social media and run a social network called Grace in Small Things. There's more, but it's early, and I haven't had my coffee yet.

I'm loving checking everyone else out in this thread!

I love this question. As a teen I remember telling a friend I would need to marry someone as I would say, "just left of center". Although, being creative does not have to be within an art form. For example, Shay wrote about her creativity in research. In my book that is as sexy as it gets. She loves what she does and has passion. I have always been on the more creative side making and selling jewelry in high school, sketching, photography..... I was always trying something. Now as an over worked adult I try to satisfy that creative need through marketing and taking pictures of my kids. My husband is a drummer, kick boxer and he owns his own masonry company. Now that's creative. I love watching him build something from a pile of stone.

We have always been fairly creative in the bedroom, although stress and life has seemed to get in the way recently. As for creativity outside of the bedroom, I am a writer so I use my creativity in that way, and my husband is in sales, so his creativity comes in the form of convincing people to buy stuff, lol. But aside from that, we are building a house and I feel that he needs a lot of creativity to turn that old, falling down shack into a beautiful, sturdy home for our family. I think that is where my husband's creativity and "thinking outside of the box" is exercised.

I used to be a singer/actor/dancer and I have definitely noticed since I don't do those really at all anymore, that my creativity in the bedroom as suffered. There is something really sexy about using your talents onstage acting, dancing or singing, and I feel like if I started doing any of those things again, I might feel a little feistier in the bedroom!

I sew, a lot! I love it, and it is a huge part of my life, plus loads of other crafts like jewelry making and collages. Also I write and love painting though I never do it much anymore : ( Creativity is a hugely sexy thing to me. My partner is a carpenter/timber framer and he is quite the creative soul himself. HOT

Well, I used to be a fairly successful maker of jewelry, and did some painting. I had a good business as a web site designer. Now, I mostly write, some erotic fiction and some articles about personal growth.

All my creativity went into creative projects because my sex life was a corpse while I was married. And I haven't been with anyone else long enough to find out if I am creative in the bedroom or not - just trying to get the basics done took up all of my time in there. It's a mystery to me.

But I write fiction (have several unpublished novels and short stories laying around), jewelry beading, clothing design, knitting, interior design, party planning, acting ... can't draw or use an instrument, though, and I haven't sung since my performing arts school days.

I write, fiction and non-fiction. I am not artistically "gifted" (which was a small disappointment to my father, who is an Art, Design and Art History Professor, and a painter and sketcher (can you be a sketcher?)) but I do love photography. We bought all the things I would need for a darkroom, thinking it would "give me something to do when we had babies" OMG, was I wrong. Babies took up all the time, and the darkroom supplies were permanently stored in the attic. We never got back to them. Life got in the way.

My Man and are are both musicians, although we have little time for it now. He has a small recording studio (just with a 4 track tape recording deck) and about 20 guitars, a bunch of keyboards, a mandolin, some banjos, two drum sets, a drum machine, and various and sundry other things in a room in our basement. We used to spend a lot of time, making our own music, and he used to play with a band. But, we just haven't done that in a while. He takes out the guitars once in a while, but my 12 string needs to be strobe tuned, restrung, (12 string are difficult to string at home, due to the pressure the neck has to continually be under, and the difficulty with the "first tune" after new strings are put on) and the frets need to be sanded, and so I don't play it. (Yeah, it's an excuse, if I wanted to badly enough, I'd have the damn thing strobe tuned and taken care of.)

He's a great woodworker and carpenter, which benefits our house a lot. (I hear the table saw in his work shop in one of the outbuildings going as I type.) Most of my time now is spent on writing, and occasionally photography.

I don't know if gardening counts. But we do a lot of that, although the fibromyalgia has made it difficult to get down in the cold dirt in the spring for me. Most of gardening now is flowers in containers and I leave the once huge vegetable garden to My Man. We both cook and even fight over who gets to do it, as we both think ourselves the better cook. As our nest empties, our experiments get more unusual, but in smaller quantities, we're not feeding a hoard of children anymore.
