A Different Kind of Craft Valentine's Gift Ideas!

So this is a different kind of craft.  I absolutely LOVE singing and people, so this idea was a NO Brainer for me.  I am currently taking orders for Singing Telegrams for Valentine's Day!  They are $20 you get a song, sung by a professional singer, a box of chocolates, a box made by yours truly and a single rose!  Trust me this will be a gift they will Not forget!  

Order today!

So This Is What It's Like

     So this is what it's like being a craft addict.  Yesterday I spent the afternoon at Hobby Lobby looking at craft things and then got home and started cutting up old t-shirts to make more crafts.  Then I called all over the city to find a new book, P.S.- I Made This... by Erica Domesek.  It is a very inspirational book with great ideas for this beginner how-to girl!  
     Today I knitted for the first time with my friend Sue.  Warning- This Is NOT An Easy Craft!  The attempt was quite amusing but not easy.  She sent me home with knitting needles, I guess that means I have a bit of homework to do.       
This is officially day three me being a crafter and I got an email from my friend Daphne about doing a craft fair!  I have 2 months to figure out what I am best at and mass produce it!  Very exciting news!  
Below are some pictures of things I made yesterday and today, Enjoy!
