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 🙂

They are beautiful @Maggie ❤ Are the candle holders tricky to paint?

Re: Craft Corner

That’s the first one I’ve done @CheerBear . I’m try to blend paint, which is tricky, at least it is for me. Thanks.

Re: Craft Corner

Yes its quite big, and lots of work to do on it @Maggie . Its a nice restful and beautiful picture. In fact I think I chose this one because it reminds me of the Sane forums. Its similar in style and colour to the picture on the Featured Discussions on the Lived Experience front page, for the Good Morning thread. Only my picture has more water in it. I have been working on it as and when I find some time.
