Hmmm - what don't I do? :) These days, it's all about the sewing machine and the felting needles!
ReplyDeleteMy main crafting hobby is knitting, but recently I've been into embroidery. I used to cross-stitch when I was younger.
ReplyDeleteI teach first grade, so I get to make crafts with my kiddos all year long. We use a lot of glue and construction paper. :)
ReplyDeleteI art journal, I paint, I draw, I stamp, I scrapbook- you name it, I do it! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a scarpbooker. In the fall, I make mums for high school homecomings, if you're familiar with that. It's a southern thing.
ReplyDeleteAll my crafts are paper-based, mostly scrapbooks and mixed media. I love that room wallpapered with book pages, that's right up my alley!
ReplyDeleteI knit, occasionally scrapbook, and I'd like to learn about jewelery making... oh, and sewing. Too many things are intriguing!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite craft is scrapbooking! But, I am trying to learn to sew so I can make curtains for our house and other home decor items. I also love just painting things and home improvement in general (does that count as "craftyness"? I think it might! ) This looks like a fun prize! Thanks for offering them :)
ReplyDeleteMy daughter just turned 3 and she is way into doing arts and crafts. We mostly do paper crafts (cutting, punches, glue buttons, bows, etc) right now.
ReplyDeleteI make all my own greeting cards, be it for birthdays, Christmas, Mother's Day or Thank you. I love cutting out little detail pieces - it's relaxing to me, but my boyfriend thinks I'm crazy!
