Holiday Swap

I just got back from my friend Fawn Dear www.fawndear.blogspot.com and she put me onto a swap. A Holiday Swap that is.

So it sounds exciting, I hadn't decided yet what I'm going to do, but I wanted to post it on my blog for whoever wants to participate. So go to her blog site at www.3sidesofcrazy.com and you can sign up. I think you have until November 17, 2008 to do it. This really gets you in the Holiday Season and gets those creative juices flowing.

and I'll talk to you later.

Happy Crafting,

A New Hobby

I have buying scrapbooking supplies and paper because I want to begin a new hobby or new craft. Now I have all these materials and I have no idea where to start. I don't know how to scrapbook, but I figure I try it. I wonder if I have a problem. I guess you say what do I mean. Well everytime I see a something relating to craft via t.v., computer, or just some one elses work in person-I feel like I have to get the supplies and try it. The problem is, when I purchase the supplies it sits right in the bag or it doesn't get any further than my dining room table. I'll start on a project for a little while and then stop, and I hardly get back to it for a long time. I don't know, I buy these things on impulse just to buy it and I wonder if I may have attention deficit craft dis-order. Am I trying to fill something I'm missing and buying craft supplies to fill it? I need opinions and suggestions. I'm having a hard time focusing on one craft item at a time. I don't complete one project before I start on another. What is that? The only thing I probably would finish out of my crafting is completing crocheted projects like blankets or shawls.

Also can anyone give me tips on what I should start on first with the scrapbooking. for instance, should I start on cards, book marks, or just a simple scrapbook.

What should I do? Oh yeah, I'm still looking forward to those candy recipes. Thanks in advance for it.

Happy crafting & voting,

Sunday Ride

I love a Sunday ride. They are so relaxing, and brings you a sense of peace. Today my family and I went riding today and got some ice cream. It was really nice. I got this big sundae with pineapple, candied walnuts, whip cream, and cerry on top with of course vanilla ice cream. It was so delicious, and like I said in a big cup. I couldn't even eat it all. I had to give the rest to my son. While we ate our ice cream/sundae, we took a little ride to the board walk and watched the boats glide across the water. I had a great time. The seagulls also graced us with a visit and provided such a serene view. Afterwards we did a little shopping. Picked up some neccessities and wants of course. I'm always picking up craft items. I love to craft. Sunday's should be spent in peace and harmony with good things to do, even if it's just sitting on your porch and enjoying what God created. How do you spend your Sunday's? What are some of the things you like to do? Share, maybe we can switch up our routine of what we learn from each other and try something different. Take care everybody Happy crafting & crocheting.
