All in a Day's Crafting

Hello again, It's Jessica from This - N - That Furniture & Crafts I love that you landed here on our page and I hope you will stick around and subscribe. This post may contain affiliate links. 

I don't know about you but this whole social distancing thing has finally motivated me to work through some crafting projects I've been putting off in hopes of getting ready for my first craft fair. These need some more work but at least they are started which is the first step right?

I love to up-cycle and find uses for things people otherwise would discard. For example, the cross below is made from broken jewelry. I think it turned out quite nice.

Simple or embellished? I could go either way here! I'm fairly new to wreath making but I'm finding it quiet relaxing! I don't think I have ever come across a crafting project that I didn't like!

Remember those diamond paintings I mentioned in my last post? Yeah those!  I utilize my left over beads in my other crafts too! Double bang for my buck!!! 

I have always felt that handmade items have a little more meaning to them versus running to the store to pick up some factory made item. Not that there is anything wrong with that, I'm just the type of person who likes leaving my mark or giving it that personal touch on every item I create, build, redo or up-cycle.  

I bet I have a hundred projects I want to tackle or ideas I have locked up in my head. Not everyone will like what I do but it's one way I express myself. My art so to speak! Hopefully I'm not the only one out there with this type of dilemma. 

Now that there is plenty of time with all this social distancing I can finally get around to all those crafts I have been putting off for so long. So I have organized my craft stash and started creating just as fast as my hands will let me lol! My imagination is running wild with all sorts of crafting ideas that I may never get to them all.  Meanwhile, in between creating I'm also in the shop building my next piece that I can't wait to stencil and modpodge.  I will post progress pictures in my next post. I'm curious to know what kinds of crafts are you working on now that we all have the time. What is keeping you going during this social distancing? Let me know in the comments below. I hope you all have a very crafty day and stay well. Until next time my friends, stay crafty!
