Ok so lately I’ve been really into crafts and things. I started knitting when I was 3 years old and my grandma’s maid sat me down on her lap and handed me her tangle of wool and needles. Her name was Mrs. Tea. how awesome is that?
So to fill my time (as if I need more work haha) I’ve been knitting and recently I learned to crochet. This weekend I finished off some fingerless gloves for James which was a lot of fun if not slightly stressful. I’m planning on embroidering skulls on the backs of them but he wanted to wear them to work so badly tonight that I let him take them.
So I guess the point of this rambling is really to ask how many of you guys are creative in other areas of your lives? I couldn’t afford a jewelry box this week so I made one!
I can’t wait to hear your answers!

I like to make candle holders and decorate second hand picture frames, I also make topiary ( not sure on spelling ) tree’s and make jewellery, but no time to do them lol, would love to see the gloves you made, sounds like something my teen would really love

Decorating picture frames sounds like fun, I actually made my jewelry holder out of an old photo frame too. I’m thinking of selling the pattern for the gloves so once James gets home I’ll take a photo for you! I’ve got to say that I find it hard to think of patterns and things to make for boys so most of my stuff ends up with frills and lace haha.
