where to find carving ideas?? you might be amazed

hi folks, its a rainy sunday afternoon here in pa. but it gives me some time after church to debate what carving i will do next on my youtube channel, the carverswoodshop. most all of the projects on youtube have been designed by me, and i enjoy thinking of something new to do, so where do i come up with ideas, well to be honest it can happen at anytime and anywhere , even when your not looking for one. i have another new idea for easter since its coming up soon, i did a tiny rabbit before but this one decided to do another little easter project,
way back some 30 years ago i had patterns i got out of books, the eagles and birds, many were done from pattern that others designed, but i take greater joy in creating my own, and i not an artist , i never could draw well, it was something i had to learn, and still learning, it was funny i say to folks ... i cant draw but i can carve, now isnt that strange, but it was very true, like any hobby if you keep at it you can learn things along the way that will improve your drawing and carving, but folk you dont have to be able to draw in order to carve, its an added bonus but not required, there are many patterns to choose from, on the net , in books, so if you want to venture out a bit try your own design, you might be amazed what you can do ,
