I'm a mother, wife, daughter, granddaughter, sister, aunt cousin, teacher, friend, animal lover, adventure seeker. I love shopping but hate spending lots of money. If I see something I like I ask myself can I make that and can I make it cheaper and better. My love for art and crafts started young in art class and watching my mom stencil everything in our house. It's a great outlet for me and now my daughter says she wants to be an artist when she grows up. You don't have to be super talented or have lots of money. You just need a thought in your head and the ambition to do it. That was the goal of this blog to show others how easy it is to be a "crafter".
