Everyone needs that something to help them pass the time...to keep their minds from driving themselves crazy. I've found that if I don't keep myself busy enough, I could make myself nuts just letting my mind wander. So, one of the things that I've done is jump into various craft projects. I have always enjoyed making things, something my mom started with me when I was really young - THANKS, MOM! There is just something so fun about creating something. I really enjoy the "trash-to-treasure" crafts. You know where you start off with yard waste and a rubber band and come up with a beautiful centerpiece for your dinner party!? Well, I'm no where near that good, but I have done a few things that I'm pretty proud of. I thought I'd just take a second to share some of the fun things I've been doing lately.
Please bear in mind that I'm no photographer! :)

I had a really hard time getting a good picture of this wreath...camera and lighting issues. This one is made from toilet paper rolls too!
Love, girl! You are so creative! I really love the embroidery. I have always wished I could sew, and quilt especially. I have put myself into a few craft projects, but they don't look nearly as good! XO
