I love to create!
Wow! Anouther creative co-conspiritor! I will be teaching knitting at the community college this January and also at the homeschoolers collective. If you live nearby I'd teach you as one person to anouther who has "been through the trenches" of wls! I am a craft-a-holic. I like wreaths, victorian hats, decorative birdhouses, I could go on but you can see I got the craft bug ---BAD! Hope to hear from you my e-mail is; [email protected] Keep on crafting, Kay
Hi! I used to told paint, but my hands don't work like they used to...guess I am just getting old in the joint department.
I have just taken up beadworking...trying to make me a prayer chain of different beads I have gotten and some beads that I made earrings from. Right when I was getting a good start on it, my hands acted up and 3/4 of it landed on the floor all over the place!! Ever try standing on your head to pick up tiny little things you cannot even see because they blend in with your dark brown carpet? (Love the imaginative colors of low-income housing) LOL. Anyway, I will pick it up again very soon. It is going to be quite interesting and different. Guess it is a left over from my hippie days. After all, I am an old hippy hippie! LOL.
Sometime I would like to pick up the needles again and try to crochet or knit again too. That was always fun and relaxing. Only if I could remember how to count. It seems there are new stitches out there now. Is that how you spell stitches?
I love to cross stitch and embroider the most. I have a very stressful job and I think that creating is an outlet for all of the stress. I really enjoy making gifts for Christmas. I have 4 boys, and as they have grown I have made numerous things, from sweat shirts with their favorite cartoon characters on them to Christmas stockings. I like to think of it as my legacy to them, all of the baby blankets that I have knitted and crocheted, to the cross stitch blankets I now make. I have even made a few pictures for the walls, that I like to show off. My goal is to have a Christmas tree with nothing but handmade ornaments on it. I too like to try out new things as long as it doesn't cost too much.
Hi! I am a craftaholic! I do some of everything. Primarily, I am a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I love to make cards and will start scrap booking soon. I do One-Stroke painting and am learning Rosemaling (Norwegian folk art). I crochet afghans and toys for kids, make things from polymer clay and throw pots on my potter's wheel. If it involves crafting - I'm there. My husband has started to try and keep me out of the craft stores so I don't try to start a new crafting theme when I have so many others on the go. I'm hoping I'll be able to turn it all into a money making venture after surgery - which I hope to have within the next few months.
