Yes, I am one of those. I admit it. I make resolutions. I have the normal ones - lose X pounds, save more money, etc. One of the big ones that I am trying to keep this year is staying on a very restrictive craft diet. I am attempting to not make ANY craft purchases for the first 6 months of the year and then reassess. Some people would find this silly but for me this is harder than any food diet. I LOVE craft stores and probably make 1 to 2 craft purchases each week on average. No worries, my craft love has not been diminished. I am just trying to focus my craft love on all of the projects and inspirational ideas I have had already. I have the necessary tools and supplies already for thousands of projects and that is what I will be working on.
Some recent projects include making some small holiday gift bags for next Christmas, making some Dora pillows for my niece (sew and stuff panels). I also worked of organizing some of my fabric to be displayed on a new 3 shelf bookcase. It looks really colorful and provides a reminder of all the fabric I have when inspiration strikes. I also just started knitting a hexagon lap blanket in Harry Potter Ravenclaw colors.
Well I am off to knit another row. Hope your weekend is crafty!
