Exciting times

Creating Placers, Let's craft! I challenge you to craft everyday. It's doesn't have to take more than 30 minutes. Make a card using old newspaper and packing tape or whatever. Whoever you give it too will be impressed that you made them something. People love to receive handmade gifts even if they fall apart or aren't really their taste. For example, my sister got married a couple years ago so for this occasion I decided to make my first quilt, my flaw is that I never use patterns, so I tried to figure it out. When I gave her the quilt, she loved it! She said it was the best gift they received. A few weeks later she put it away because some of the thread was coming undone.....but she still cherished it. Wouldn't you love to receive something made by hand?

Our lunch time crafting classes are a great way to squeeze in a little craft each day. I will be teaching a lunch time bottle cap magnet class on March 4th (see calender) it's a great way to create recycled personalized art.

If you need ideas stop in and check out our crafting magazines, they are full of inspiration.
