Jewelry Making

Wow, X-mas time has already arrived and... well it's time again to make presents for people!! 1st of all, I love making them, and 2nd of all, it's way cheaper than buying everything and 3rd, people LOVE home-made gifts.. so I hope!

I've been making some beaded knitted bracelets and also some button necklaces! They are beautiful and I hope everyone likes them... will post photos soon :)

A new love..

I recently got back into doing what I love...CRAFTS! I guess it's the time of year.. the weather or ... my loneliness that's made me get back into it. Recently I've missed my family and friends more and more and so I need to get closer to what I love. Although I am now unconsciously taking a break of my love of Photography.. my passions are generally not things I can turn on and off.

They come and they go. Last week I taught myself to crochet and I'm pleased with the results. (see picture below of first official toque!) I am proud I made Martin a warm hat to wear.. but he still is constantly asking for his ribbed scarf I started knitting.. LAST YEAR! - I will get it done soon.. hopefully as I keep promising him, before the end of the winter season!

Oh well.. he'll have to wait a little longer. Anyway just wanted to officially write my first post. This will probably end up being a personal documentation blog so I can document my projects but still - it's nice to write again.♥
