Who's Crafty?
Arsty Farsty? ROFLMAO ALex!
I like to redo furniture. I already did a bookshelf and a tresure chest that used to by hubbys for our daughter. The two dressers are next. And I can paint abstract/geometric paintings on canvas. I am currently planning out the one to hang above the fireplace!
I also crosstitch, make candles and make soap.
Yes- I am dork.

i used to be an avid knitter, crocheter, and sewer but when i lost the use of my right hand/wrist i lost those crafts.
i still do plastic canvas, fabric painting and faster plaster.
i must have about 3 gigs worth of plastic canvas patterns between my hard drive and cds i burnt.
i have the addres and phone number for the best prices and selections on plastic canvas supplies. they sell at wholesale pricing and you can't beat their prices or selections

I am crafty
I guess some know by now with all the craft sites I post. I'm one of those annoying people who crochet, knit, sew, weave. Paint (oils,watercolor) draw, make jewelry( mostly bead work) basktry, make candles, soap, cosmetics, decorate cakes and I garden. I also do a little wood carving, but that is my husbands area.
