An alternative to "making" objects in Lucids

Ever wanted to create something before in an LD, and it didn't work, or you just considered it boring? Well, do I have an idea for you! Just use any flat faced object (a mirror, facemask, a mousepad, a rug, etc.) and expect to pull something out of it (OR, you can ask a DC to do it for you!) And, something will. You can choose to be surprised, or think of an object that you want, and picture it, and it should work. It's fun! Of course, you could always teleport too and think of the place you wanna go. Have fun with it! Maybe, you can even move your arm around in it, and see what you feel.

I like these ideas. I've yet to make anything appear in a LD yet but next time I'm lucid I'll try some of these.

Mirrors, especially, are crazy. They can transport you to all kinds of different places. I'd imagine you could pull all sorts of things out of mirrors! Place it feels bad ass to walk through one ;)

Yeah, that method sounds similar to something I do sometimes, where I just open a door, with the thought beforehand that someone or something will be there as soon as I open it.

Great suggestion:)

KingYoshi, yes mirrors in lucid dreams are amazing! I've never walked through one, but I have flown through a mirror in a lucid, and it's like nothing else.

Last night, when I was lucid, I was at burger king and I wanted to go home. I opened the door and imagined my front lawn and then it was like I was stepping out of my house. Worked like a charm.

Awesome!:)

I have yet to use a mirror in my LDs, I think that it would freak me out. Yeah, I know, it's all in my head, and blabbidy, blabbidy, blah, but I just don't feel like trying yet. I have looked at a mirror twice in a dream before though. In both I looked normal (but I didn't look at myself directly, for some reason, I, like, never do in my dreams, lucid or not), then in one, my head turned into my cat!

For some reason my hair always looks freaky in dream mirrors. It's weird!
