Craft Corner

Craft Corner

A place to chat and share all things crafty!

What's your favourite craft? Is there anything you're working on at the moment? What would you like to create/work on (I have heaps of "one day" project patterns and ideas that I know I will probably never get around to, but it's nice to imagine)? I'd love to hear!

I have absolutely no artistic side to me and stick figures are the extent of my drawing ability, but I really enjoy learning and trying out new crafts. I learnt crochet during a stay in a prevention and recovery centre and it's something I pick up often when I am feeling blue, I need a distraction or I'm just a little bored. I've tried paper crafts too, although I didn't really get far with anything. Sharpies are some of my best friends and when I find my hands need to move I have a collection of smooth rocks that I draw on (different coloured circles) which often relaxes me. Sometimes I dust off the sewing machine and sew as well. I walk around spotlight for a fun outing 😉

Looking forward to hearing from you all 🙂

@Faith-and-Hope, @CheerBear, @Appleblossom and anyone else who might find this interesting. It popped up on my Facebook feed today. Unfortunately this particular one is only available on Facebook.

It’s pretty fabulous although there is a mistake. It says she was born in the uk although elsewhere she was born in Russia.

I can’t put the Facebook page up because it won’t let me but it was called George Takei, Paper art portraits. Its short video if you can access it.

Her name is Yulia Brodskaya and here is a taste of some of her amazing paper art.

Here Here is a google search link if you want to check her out.

Had to share. 💜🤗
