Q. Hey All, I sent an invitation for my friends and family to wear costumes and whoever has the scariest/best costume would win a Prize. But I have no idea what a memorable/good prize would be. HELP! Also, should I include runner's up?
A. I think everyone likes gift cards to a favorite store, restaurant, movies, etc. It doesn't have to be to expensive. It would be nice to have something for a runner's up prize too. You could make like a 'movie night' basket with microwave popcorn, some candy bars, hot chocolate mix, etc. for that.
Is creativity in the visual arts, such as painting, something you are born with or something you can aquire?
Q. Also I have heard many times that there is some correlation between creativity and insanity. Is any of this true or partially true?
A. Hi Jennifer,
In my opinion, there are seeds planted in our souls...some are watered and produce gifts of creativity and talents for other things like being the best speller or math pro, great runner etc...
Some people pick up a paint brush and go to it, without professional training. They seem to know what to do and when to do it. Others need instructions after instructions after instructions....and there are those in between.
Back in the 80's due to a death in our family I decided to go to the local junior college and take a art course. I thought it would help me focus on something positive..I didn't have a talent or gift but as I was taught all kinds of things poured out of me...like a cleansing from the loss. It was the same thing as writing a diary....it poured out on canvas....as I went along in the course I discovered with some good teaching by some great teachers. They helped pull out things I didn't know I could do or had the ability to do....it was concentration, study and a higher power I believe that helped me succeed in different types of art. I'm not a professional artist enjoy doing it for pleasure but i must say it has come easy for me...not a struggle. What I see in my mind it ends up on paper or canvas at times it pours out so fast I have a time to keep up with the thoughts...I do keep a journal that has been a great help with I get inspired....
If you read about Van Gogh the famous artist who cut off his ear...due to a breakup with his girlfriend....he was known to have mental illness. His artwork became extremely popular after his death. Just about anyone who knows about art can spot his work a mile away....
Surely there are different ideas how art comes about and out on paper, canvas, sculptor, painting , printmaking and so much more....people will be questioning this for ages and ages....I just know it's a wonderful outlet for a hobby or for those who do it for their livelihood. It's a great pleasure either way.
Best wishes,

Almost forgot...how about the animals who paint! Where did they get it ? It must be in their feed. LOL

What are the main things that I need to do to plan my wedding?
Q. Find a hall and someone to marry us,right?And my dress and his ring?What am I missing?I need help lol.I want to set a date badly,but we wanted an outside wedding and we live in FL and I just read the hurricane season may be worse this year and that is around the time we want to get married......
A. The biggest factor in planning a wedding is how many guests you want to invite, start with writing your guest list, then determine your budget. After that you can choose a location and an officiant. when I got engaged we set the date first and made plans around the date. If you're worried about a hurricane, you can either choose a different season, or plan for the same date next year when the weather might be better, of course, the weather is an impossible thing to plan around, you may have to just pick the day that means the most to you and pray for great weather, on the bright side I've heard that rain on your wedding day is good luck, so if you had a hurricane I'd say buy a lotto ticket, lol. another first thing to consider is what colours and theme (if any) do you want for your wedding, even if it's small your colour choices can determine what your bouquet will look like.
No matter what size your wedding is you will need to consider:
Wedding license
Rings
Dress/Suit or Tux
officiant
witnesses
flowers (but i've seen lots and lots of alternatives, like a button bouquet, feathers, candles etc.)
if you will be having a fair size wedding than you will want to choose your wedding party, bridesmaids/groomsman, maid of honour and best man, as well as a flower girl and ring bearer. Will you want to wear a Garter for a traditional Garter toss? If you have a wedding party its customary to give your attendants a gift each, some ideas are jewelry boxes for the girls and flasks for the boys.
for the reception you need to determine, how many people will be invited to that, cause it isn't unusual to invite guests to the reception and not to the ceremony itself.
If you want to have a sit down meal or no meal, or a BBQ, or a potluck. If you want to serve alcohol, and if you will be paying or having it BYOB or if it will be a cash bar. decorations and centre pieces and music, also determine what time you want your reception, some people have mid afternoon reception without alcohol and light snacks instead of a full sit down dinner and dancing soiree.
Then there are the nickle and dimers like a wedding guest book and pen, an aisle runner for the ceremony, (also think if the wedding is outside, you will need chairs set up at your ceremony site, we are using camp chairs, and asking our family and friends to each bring one) ring bearers pillow, wedding favours, (we got almost 300 custom guitar picks with our names and wedding date for $100, I've seen also match books and shot glasses that could be very inexpensive)
I know how you feel, planning a wedding is extremely overwhelming, especially in the beginning when you don't know where start, and you know you can't send out an invitation without first having your date, location for both ceremony and reception, and the officiant booked. I'm sure no matter how big or small, your day will be beautiful!
