So this is me, a brand new crafter. A first timer, new to all things crafty, a virgin crafter if you will. I mean come on, I just recently bought a good pair of fiskers and learned what notions are. Okay, okay, I've made a few things before. There was the step stool that I varnished and personalized for my nephew Vincent's first Birthday. (Which I recently found out was fixed after he broke it a while back.) I also made him a sign for his door that said "Vincent's Room." That was pretty cute if I do say so myself. But then there was the botched knitting class that I truly just was not good at. I liked it though, I just felt klutzy with my needles. Pretty much my crafts are far and few between but I am putting myself out there now. You would think that I would have at least one crafty gene in me, my Mom is ever so handy at the sewing machine, crocheting... pretty darn cool. My sis is quite the master of cross stitch, she has made some awesome blankets, bibs, all kinds of stuff.
On to the debut... Ta da!
This required absolutely no sewing whatsoever. Just a staple gun which I enjoyed using. I started the project last week and measured and cut the fabric. I was set back but once I got chugging along Sunday night it finished in little time. I was excited and since it was only me and Beans in the room when I finished the first chair, I shared my excitement with her. Her toothless grin made me feel good as I told her "Look! Mommy did a craft! Mommy did a craft!"
What's next? Not sure, but I am going to keep trying new things and just have fun with it :)
