New Job

I've always thought I'd love to open a craft store... not one like Michaels or JoAnns... but one that you can go into and learn to do what you have always thought you might want to do... stained glass, rug hooking, t-shirt recycling, t-shirt decals, tote bags, sewing, crochet, desk top publishing or just painting a flower pot. Since I'm into just about all crafts and have a craft room bigger than my living room, I thought I might try my hand in a little home business. I'd like to give others like me, but not silly enough to purchase all the paraphelia, a chance to try out a dream craft or project.
Recycle those old kids shirts into a quilt, take those photos and make a collage and then print it onto a tote, shirt, or cover for a stool or bedspread. Take that old ceramic teacup you just broke and make a mosiac coaster or into a necklace. In other words I want everyone to be the pack rat I am... or at least help me use up all the goodies I've been hoarding through out the years!! Stay tuned for more information... I'm not a master at anything, but sure do have the determination to tackle about everything you can make yourself.
