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 @BronH , the puppy looks awesome. Thanks for sharing it 🙂

@Maggie, not sure it makes a big difference to be honest. I managed to complete mine without to many dramas.

@Maggie, yep all done. I'll try and post a picture this afternoon. My next one will take a lot longer to complete. The bee is only small. 🙂

@CheerBear HI cheerbear. It's good to have something to lose yourself in when you are very sick. I like to write stories and draw but I would prefer something more calming as I get a little over excited when I am being creative. I'm sorry you had a hard time. Thanks for starting this thread. I will look on the internet and buy some wool. Knitting seems to be the craze at the moment. I've seen knitting on trees as an art work . Its called knit bombing. I think they do a lot of it in Detroit Michigan.
