I adore making things and always have. There is just something about working with my hands that gives me such a sense of accomplishment and pride in a job well done. Which is one of the reasons I love sharing tutorials with my readers.
As a kid, I loved crafts, scrapbooking, coloring, sewing, pretty much anything that kept my hands busy. And I love that I carried that ‘habit’ into adulthood.
As an adult, my crafting habit has grown, resulting in bigger and more complex projects. From furniture refurbishment to wreaths to bullet journaling, I’m always working on something. This blog is where I share my tutorials, ideas, and inspiration for the things that I’m working on.
