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

Haha that's pretty much me at the moment @outlander I'm now on a self-imposed crochet ban until I get some NDIS paperwork sorted (it has to happen by 10am tomorrow so it's a short ban), so I am here instead

That sounds is a bit fun @Snowie 🙂 Looking forward to hearing about it if you can and do share, and really hoping you enjoy or find comfort/distraction in doing whatever it is you are planning

Re: Craft Corner

Brought two cross stitch packs, one small one and a big one (which will take me ages)

Picked out two that remind me of things close to me so have some significance

In response to: Craft Corner

Re: Craft Corner

Yay @Snowie! That's so exciting to hear 😊 love the idea of picking something that has significance for you. There are a couple of people who cross stitch here. I look at the kits when I go to crafty places, but have never tried it. Looks like a lovely thing to do though.
