Location:
South Bend, IN
About Me:
I started out very young knitting, crocheting, and cross stitching. Thirty years later, I taught myself to sew and expanded to wood. After hitting the craft show circuit for a few years, I decided to find a more practical arena. At first, I sold my wares for Christmas and pin money. Now I am crafting to keep my sanity while raising four glorious boys!

I cannot believe how far I have come from being "just" a knitter/crocheter/cross stitcher. I now sew, paint, and work with wood. It has been a long wonderful journey---well, not always wonderful. But it has been a fabulous learning experience. I can hardly wait to see what craft comes around the next corner!

New items and a Black Friday sale

Thanksgiving is less than a week away and, with it, the biggest shopping day of the year: Black Friday. With the weather getting worse (at least, in my neck of the woods!) and the crowds, I think I will opt of going out on Friday. I used to go out every year, but the pushing, shoving, and just general rudeness of some shoppers has kind of soured me on it the last couple of years. So I may take advantage of the sales online. In that spirit, we will be running a special on our site for that day. S… Continue

New items

The holidays are almost here----only 46 days left before Christmas! I have added some new ornaments and dishclothes to my website. With the holidays so close, I am frantically finishing up some more items to be posted by the end of the upcoming week. Check back to see new tree skirts, childrens aprons, holiday placemats, and much more. I will also be having a special for the day after Thanksgiving so keep checking for more info about that!

Two VERY different chalkboards

I have just added two new crafts to my page. The first is a very unique placemat. A typical everyday plastic placemat has become a chalkboard on one side. The other side remains plastic with activities that can be completed with dry erase markers, washable crayons, or white board crayons. A terra cotta pot, perfect for holding the chalk or other writing tools, completes the package. The second item I have added is a wallhanging made from a chalkboard. This acts as a countdown calendar for those… Continue

Wood burnings

We still have some gorgeous woodburnings left on our site. They each have a picture hanger on the back so they may be hung on the wall or, if you prefer, you can set them up elegantly on plate holders. Check them out at www.craftingforsanity.etsy.com!
