Refilling the Well

There is a lot of creating and crafting that goes on around holidays like Christmas, Valentine’s Day, and Easter. But what about lesser-known holidays?

For example, did you know today is….

Mardi Gras?
Shrove Tuesday?
International Pancake Day?
Independence Day in Estonia?
Flag Day in Mexico?

Paying attention to unexpected and unexplored holidays can provide a jump-start to your creativity. It can also be a starting point for refilling your well.

Some of these holidays can come directly to your inbox courtesy of Reference.com’s “On This Day” e-mail.  There are also some online calendars that include unexpected and relatively unknown holidays. Use Google or another search engine to find them.
