What do you listen to while scrapping?

Do you listen to music, watch TV or a movie? Prefer quiet?

I like to stream TV shows with easy to follow story lines or a movie that I've seen a few times so I can listen while I work.

music on my Pandora on my computer. Usually some mix of Michael Buble, Harry Connick Jr, Norah Jones, etc. Smooth and soulful

I always have on my mp3 player loaded with upbeat sing-songs. It is easier to shut everything else out and find my creative flow with my headphones on.

I listen to the radio - WCBS-FM! Because now I'm at the age where my teenage songs are on the oldies station ROFL!

I turn on the radio for back ground noice. I really don't listen to it.

I usually have the HGTV going...all those home renovation shows inspire me, I guess!

I like it quiet when I am scrapping.

I usually have the tv on something-- just depends on what I have recorded!

TV - hubby and I share an office/craft room so we watch a ton of streamed shows together. So agree about simple plot lines - there are a few shows we've tried to watch that require attention and it just doesn't work with me scrapping or working and him playing other computer games.

I do a little of all three! It just depends on what kind of mood I am in. Right now I am scrapping in the silence. The only thing I here is my puppy chewing on her rawhide and the furnace running.

I tried 24 when I first started watching that one but it was an epic fail.

Do you have any recs? I've gone through so many series I don't know what to watch anymore.

I can not watch tv and focus on scrapping, so it is either Pandora, or a cd. Love my music!

Depends. If hubby is home and we're sitting together and I'm working on a digi project, it's usually the tv. Actually, it's usually the tv whenever I do anything digi. But if I'm playing with paper, I don't have a tv in my scrap room so it's usually music (radio) or Pandora.

I have to have some noise going... silence is a distraction! I prefer either a movie or use the time to catch up on my fav night time TV shows tha I don't always catch during the week

love2stamp · Mon Apr 28, 2014 11:44 am

spotify radio or a movie from Netflix.

pawprints · Mon Apr 28, 2014 11:52 am

Usually one of my iTunes playlists, or sometimes I just like it quiet and listen to the sound of the doggies napping or playing.

scrappininAK · Mon Apr 28, 2014 11:53 am

I tend to block out all noise when I'm scrapping and get totally absorbed

MacSarah · Mon Apr 28, 2014 12:36 pm

I may just listen to the sound of silence! Since DH and the kids will all be gone (fingers crossed that no plans change) I guarantee that I will NOT listen to the "Frozen" soundtrack or the noise/sound the Star Wars video game makes.

I did just recently get the concert version of "Chess" with Josh Groban and Idena Menzel, so I am looking forward to that for a change.
