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 🙂

Hi everyone 🙂

@outlander wow and yay! That's awesome. I love the colours you're using. Did you decide on a pattern with the colours or will it be a random thing? So cool to see how quickly you picked it up 😊❤

@Zoe7 sorry I dropped out here the other day - extra lumpy throat for a couple of days. Did you have a go at a pompom Toby? I started making a little white dog and nearly have a head (the weather took a nice turn so I spent time in the garden instead). It won't look anything like Toby until the very end when the fur is added and that part may not work but we'll see. Sending you these ❤❤ for what I imagine my be an extra lumpy throat too.

I have another crafty thing to share.

While I was gardening yesterday the kids played with a box of acrylic paints we had stored away and they found something cool to do with an old plastic table they have for craft and outside play.

If it dries (and that's a big "if" as there's a lot of paint on it!) I'll seal/varnish it and their old table will be a very fun and bright new one. Love random craft play that turns out unexpectedly well 🙂

Hope anyone getting their craft on is enjoying it!

Re: Craft Corner

No I didn't end up making the pompom - slept instead - was still not well. I am doing much better physically atm but mentally struggling! I have plans to watch my team play this afternoon and some housework that needs to be done but I might be able to start the pompom Toby tonight - will depend how motivated and how tired I feel @CheerBear.

Will come back soon to see if the image is up
