Are you someone who has no time for art? No time to be creative? Yes, it's possible to work on and complete art projects that make you happy in 5 minutes at a time, spread out through your day or week. How is that possible?!
Collage art is the PERFECT form of art for creative people who don't have time. Why? Because the process can be broken down into segments of 5 minutes at a time. I'll explain how.

I am 70 and fell 3 1/2 years ago. Two spinal fusions later, i am still homebound by the pain. i can sit/stand for about15 minutes. i love gel printing and collage as i can start and stop easily. Great video. Thanks!

@MargareteMiller Год назад

I'm so glad you found something that keeps you thinking and working creatively! Thanks for sharing 💙

@effiecross2008 Год назад

I have lots of wonderful art supplies, but for many reasons it has been a while since I felt up to doing anything creative. This video was VERY inspiring, and out of all the mediums I enjoy I feel like paper is one of the easiest and most enjoyable. My brain is already starting to bubble with ideas. It is obvious you put a lot of time and effort into this video, and I really appreciate it! I'm thankful YT recommended this video to me, and I subscribed!

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Effie, Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments. I'm so glad you've gotten some new ideas from the video ❤️

@missyb.623 Год назад

I love dollhouses. Your house in the back is a sweet idea.

@JeanFB16 Год назад

Oh my gosh Margarete, thank you so much for the "Forward" download! That is exactly what I need for my art journals, because those sentiments are truly what I need to tell myself all of the time to get "unstuck"! As far as finding time to collage, when I had kids in elementary and middle school, I used to have to drive them myself and wait in a line-up of cars for about 20 minutes every day to pick them up. I found an inexpensive vintage train case on Etsy (but you could use a tupperware storage bin, and old tool box, whatever easily fits in the car seat) and started adding papers to it as I found them. Anything that caught my eye. Eventually I had a nice selection and just added a little journal (I used the smallest Moleskine with some signatures removed), a gluestick, and an old thick magazine to use as a "worktable" to glue on, and I had a blast creating one page a day. All of the suggestions in your video are so great and so inspiring. Thanks for this wonderful series!

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Wonderful!! I'm so glad, Jean, that the message in "Forward" speaks to you. Even doing collage for years, I still need to remind myself of this all the time. And GREAT idea about bringing stuff in the car for pick up! This is me all the time 😉. What's a train case, though? I'm going to search on Etsy and see what comes up. 💙👍🏼💜

@JeanFB16 Год назад

@@MargareteMiller Yes Etsy is a great place to discover what a vintage train case is like. Unfortunately, they have been "discovered" in recent years and are getting to be much more expensive online. I do see them from time to time in thrift shops and flea markets though. It's great when you find one with some inside features such as pockets or little extra trays.

@missviolavintage Год назад

Love the way you break all this down into manageable steps. It's so easy to get overwhelmed! Thanks for another great video Margarete!

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Thank you for your kind comments, Viola❣️

@donna-1234 Год назад

Hi Margarete, I started doing collages with your assignments two years ago. While at times, I found it frustrating to work within the confines of the assignments, I also learned an incredible amount about collaging itself since the topics were given and my concentration centered on how to make an arrangement that was pleasing to my eye (not always successful but, hey, I learned from that too). So thank you for providing them and all of your other valuable videos ❤

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Thanks so much for sharing that feedback, Donna! I love reading insight, like that. 🙂👍🏼

@jeanbeck3962 Год назад

This is a great reminder for me. Sometimes I need a push to get collaging again. Thank you.🎨

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Wonderful! I certainly hope that you do 👍🏼💜

@claudiablanton8963 25 дней назад

Awwww. Thank so much!!! 😘

@SIC647 6 месяцев назад

I don't collage. But I am very creative with a lot of other crafts, and this was very useful for me to get unstuck from the rut I am in right now. I took literal notes.

@MargareteMiller 6 месяцев назад

Wonderful!! I'm so glad it was helpful❣️

@tonyastone6866 Год назад

I have a glue book (GB) I've created from bits, boxes and what not and am having a blast creating little collages. I even took a deck of playing cards and created prompts to inspire me to use different elements to combine in the GB. Thanks for the inspiration, I love your calm, friendly, almost therapeutic voice. Take care hun...I love what you're doing on your channel.

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Thanks so much, Tonya 😘. And I'm so glad you're having such a fun time working with collage. That's the way it's supposed to be 😉💜👍🏼

@LittleFrenchHen Год назад

Tray Table! Gosh, when I moved to my teeny tiny space (losing my craft room) I despaired at having no room to work in. So I got myself a tray table, and its the best thing I have to get me motivated to create something. Before getting it I was working on the floor which isn't at all ideal, so....yeah thanks for sharing your tips and tricks!

@MargareteMiller 11 месяцев назад

Awesome!! So glad that is working for you and that you are motivated again. Thanks for watching 👍🏼💜💐

@caroltanzi29 Год назад

Margarete: good directions for people who are thinking about collaging. To me, collaging is one of the most inexpensive and easiest way to be creative. I have a magazine that I’ve turned into a glue book. I create pages that appeal to me using what attracts me. As I look back, it’s most interesting to see what I have done. No rhyme or reason, but yet, it clearly reminds me what my interests are. It’s quite telling. And it’s so much fun. Carol from California

@MargareteMiller Год назад

I love collaging with magazines, too. I love that there's no pressure, just fun. Thanks for sharing! 💙

@cinziagirelli7939 Год назад

Hi Margaret, I love, love doing your weekly challenges! I went to a ring journal I made this year. I never have to worry about it getting too full Last year’s is really a big gator mouth. I tend to add a lot of embellishment s. Thank you as always ❤️

@MargareteMiller Год назад

How kind of you to say, Jeanne. I'm so glad you're going to give it a go 👍🏼💙

@rebeccabrent4280 Год назад

I like to make greeting cards using collage. This idea of doing the creative work in 5-minute increments is perfect for my busy life. And greeting cards are often quick projects as well! Thanks for the inspiration!

@donna-1234 Год назад

Ooh, never thought about making greeting cards. I make postcards and send them to my kids but will try this now - great idea. Thank you !

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Wonderful! I'm so glad you've figured out what kind of project works for you. Thanks for sharing. 💙

@terryl3581 Год назад

This was very helpful. Thank you! I am going through something in my life right now that is causing me to have difficulty concentrating. Also, right now I cannot bear to make a mess. Yet, I not only want to create, I NEED to create. I am going to get started with your suggestions here right now. Thank you!

@MargareteMiller Год назад

I'm so glad to hear this, Terry!! Little by little, and without putting pressure on yourself. I'm cheering for you 👏🏼

@lindabarnett7653 Год назад

~~~really great advice, Margarete. Thanks!

@rebeccajones9757 Год назад

Thank you for this video. I made some collages while working from home. It took me more than 5 minutes though. I shut off my camera during webcam meetings and just cut and glued. I like messing with lots of different mediums, and it takes me more than 5 minutes just to figure out where I put things. Your tips will help me a lot to create more frequently.

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Glad it helped! And you'll get more efficient the more often you work at it. 👍🏼💙

@tortagialla Год назад

Thanks for sharing. Definitely relate as I have three kids and one is newborn so it’s hard to have long stretches of time… and also need to be able to leave things and not lots of cleanup time 😅

@MargareteMiller Год назад

That's how I started this whole collage art journey. Two little ones and needing to escape a bit into my own world for a bit 😉💜👍🏼. I hope it gives you some ideas!!

@lottesteeg3289 Год назад

Great video. So helpful for a beginner like me. I can’t get started. Lots of excuses: not enough time nor energy, too many ideas, too many materials. You really narrow it done for me. Still have your gluebook. Bought it some time ago. Gonna pick it up again. Thx so much!

@MargareteMiller Год назад

That's so lovely to hear, Lotte! Start working with one and see if you like it. Just a bit at a time. 👍🏼💙

@judiemjacobson4613 Год назад

This was very helpful and I am going to print out the couple of things you suggested. Even though I have lots of things and papers because I do junk journals I think that the list will still be very helpful to me. I'm not doing great in my Margaret Miller collage challenge and that I can't always find a way to make things go together cohesively like you do and so many of your challenges. But I'm getting better and I'm going to keep trying thank you

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Thanks for your comments, Judie. I do hope you stick with the assignments. They'll come together more easily with practice 👍🏼💙

@cynthiahogue7724 Год назад

@tommarywiegel4447 Год назад

I have one of your prompt list and have only done three so far but you are so right, the ideas for the collage swirl around in my brain throughout my day. I do larger collages but really enjoy having these smaller projects to jump in and out of as I have time. Thank you for putting these lists together. Mary

@MargareteMiller Год назад

I like your idea, Mary, of having a big project to work on and also a small project at the same time. It keeps things interesting, doesn't it 😉💜

@tommarywiegel4447 Год назад

@@MargareteMiller It really does! And the smaller projects make sure I am always in my creative space daily which I think is very important to help you learn and grow more confidence. I have not been brave enough to show any of my work yet.

@junkjournalingwithartephemerie Год назад

Sometimes, you do get it right on the first try, but it's usually a happy accident! 😅

@MargareteMiller Год назад

Yep. I agree. I do get happy accidents, but it's pretty rare 😂

Hi, Margarete! Where do I find the "Forward" to print out as mentioned in this video? Thank you for your inspirational ideas and for sharing so much to help us all. Love your art and journal style!

Hi, the link is in the description. It says "Forward". I hope it's useful! 💙

@TRoseTheArtist Год назад

Oh, wonderful! I found it. You were very clear before, but, somehow I just could not see it. With your kindness, I went back to the description and "YAY!" there it was. TY for sharing it... I think it will help me a lot to be freer thinking when art journaling!
