Hi Everyone!

BlogpostPublished: Apr 22, 2009Views: 3218

I just wanted to let you know that for the Summer months I will only be posting creations from the beginning to the middle of the month. I now have a 'studio', and have been working on some craft projects, and want to really explore my other creative outlets. I had gotten so used to using the computer for everything that I forgot how wonderful it was to create by hand. Oh, I know that I use my hands to create on the computer, as well. But, the things that I'm doing really give me a different sense of pride. Thanks so much, have fun and have an AMAZING day!

Thanks so much, Hiedi! You totally get it. I love the mailbox idea that you made for your Mom. Especially the little messages that you left for her inside. That's a very lovely and gracious thing. Mom's always enjoy getting homemade something or another from their children. I know my Mom has kept tons of stuff that I made for her since I was little. It's always fun to go back and look at it together and reflect on the memories.

I can understand that. $\:cool\:$   I scrapbook and although the colages I make for lot presentation resemble the basic set of scrap-booking I do get a different sense of satisfaction in making the scrapbook pages. $\:wub\:$   I made a mailbox once (not all that long ago) for my Mom out of boxes and construction paper then stenciled some butterflies and dragonflies on it.......I even made grass around the pole. $\:D$   I'm not sure, it somewhat looked like a project an older child or young teen would make........but it had a door that could open & I "made" some "letters" to go in it with a heart for stamps & in each was a little special thanks or message to my Mom thanking her for the many many things she has done & continues to do for me. $\:wub\:$   I'm happy for you that you will be able to do something that at the end of the day makes  you happy. $\:rah\:$ $\:wub\:$
