Does the world need another crafting blog?
Probably not, but I think I need one, so here it is.
I am easily distracted, I’m a magpie, and I lack direction…
I also find that I am not a happy bunny if I am not making stuff with my hands. This is a re-occurring theme in my life. Shall we examine it further?
- Primary School: relatively happy (playing with paint)
- Middle School: relatively happy (making copper spoons for history projects)
- High School: mostly happy (cutting up cats)
- University attempt 1: not terribly happy (too much Latin)
- Art foundation course: miserable (a fluke.. it was mostly painting..)
- Art college: joy, lots of joy (technically made of photography, but it was still hands on)
- Masters Degree: misery (commuting, lab work..but I had the most beautifully cut fabric samples in the class)
- Temping: generally unhappy
So there we have it.. I should be making stuff, it would be nice if people could buy it so I could make more stuff.
…and this blog, gentle readers, is my way to shame myself into making more stuff, rather than just thinking about it.
