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 🙂

Re: Craft Corner

oh bugger @Gazza75 not again! there must be a glitch as that's the third one that's happened and the mods aren't aware of it. ill bring it up in the notifications list and see if anyone else is experiencing it!

hopefully youll get one soon. I might take a look at the shops tomorrow if I have enough time and then try for thursday when its abit quieter. might get my sister one too as shes home early on a Thursday so we could try it out together or something.

Re: Craft Corner

Lol @outlander it's worth a try. 🙂 my mum is fairly handy with crafts, but, no one else in family does. I.am. Bit pissy, someone from work.stole.one.of.my baskets. I will have to search next time I am in that office, but, doubt I will find it.

Hi @outlander and @Gazza75

Sorry to hear about your technical issues. Thanks so much for raising these issues with us which we shall look into.

It would be great if you would post details about the issue you are experiencing in a thread in 'forum news and feedback' section so that our Community Managers can review them. Others forum members that are having trouble can also post in the new thread. It's just useful to have one spot for discussion on technical issues for us to keep track of to fix! A separate thread for technical issues is also helpful in that it does not disrupt but rather maintains the flow of other threads.

Thanks again for drawing the technial issues to our attention. Hopefully, they will be fixed soon.

Mika
