Spare Time

So I have had a lot of spare time lately.
Time I didn't quite know what I was going to do with.
And then my sweet sis-in-law Laurie, a most crafty girl, reintroduced me to crocheting. I had done it before making blankets mostly and found that over the years I just didn't want to put the time into one that was required. But Laurie introduced me to small projects.
What? There's such a thing as a small project?
Why yes, yes there is! So I have been crocheting. I have made a dragon, a horse (almost done), slippers, and a tote bag.



Then finding that I couldn't just crochet all the time, I took up a hobby that I have been doing on an off for a while now, but now I had lots of time to devote to it.
Jewerly making.
I have really enjoyed making it. Problem, though. I don't always like to wear jewelry. Hmmm!
And finally, thanks to my friend Ruthanne, I have made some LOVE blocks.
Truthfully all I did was modgepodge she did all the other work towards making them cute and fun.
But aren't they cute? I love them.
So between all of these projects I still have managed to apply for MANY jobs, and got a few interviews, but no job so far.
So spare time has been nice, so far, but I am running out of project ideas.
Any ideas???

  1. Those crochet projects are very cute. i love the dragon one. Super cute! I have put learning how to crochet on my wish list when my kids are older. Also i am full of ideas, my project list is very long and getting longer everyday it seems. if i don't have a project i go kind of crazy. You need to move here and be my crafting buddy.
