I am the same way...I have tons of craft supplies and after I try something and make a few things I get completely bored...Ceramics are great, but I don't always have access to a kiln...My latest fling has been sewing...I was taught when I was younger, but lately I've been getting back into it...There are so may patterns out there, it's almost endless what you can do from bags to clothes to quilts to just some pillows...Check out Amy Butler she has awesome patterns and fabrics...
Another on again off again love of mine is photography, I'm in the process of getting my husband to buy me a nice photo printer...or at least a printer that's nicer than the one we have now...I really want to do some iron on transfers on pillows (that I make of course)...
And if that's not enough inspiration, I still haven't tried mosaics and jewelry making, and I'm dieing to...Unfortunately I can really only afford one craft at a time, so when I'm bored with sewing I know I have something lined up!

hello. I was curious if you have ever tried rubber stamping....
looks as if you have done some paper crafting, the origami and scrapbooking... this would just add to that. you must be good with your hands and enjoy creating. I sure love creating, the whole aspect of the color pallet I choose and designing the layout is really fun.
I have done rubber stamping now for almost 10 years. there are so many techniques and sooo many stamps and mediums you can choose from it is one of those things that can be as complex as you let it become.
the following site will lead you to many other links of rubberstamping if you haven't already checked it out, you might want to take a look

don't let the name scare you, there is alot of personality in the stamping world : )

Consider volunteering with your local art museum. All of the activities that you have abandoned appear to be solitary. Perhaps the missing part of your equation is other people. Volunteers work with the museum at events and with each other offering them a great opportunity to not only be around art, but also around other people. If you're any good at painting or drawing you may also have the opportunity to teach a class for them.

Think of a topic you are passionate about, draw a mind map about what it means to you and get a sketchbook and link it to the topic. I was told to do this at the summer school at GSA and I was so inpired by it, I take my sketchbook to all gigs now (my topic was music) and I sketched my mates bands yesterday which they were rather impressed with.

You have to stick with an artistic pursuit to become proficient at it. How about photography? It's varied and you can try a number of different areas - still life, landscape, portraits, etc.?

I make cards, its really good once you get into it. Takes loads of time and passes the day! Also saves you money when it comes time to send someone a card!
