Krafty Kim

I think I was meant to be a pre-school teacher...or maybe I was in a previous Ben Franklin era...I am addicted to the whole craft project, and like my other OCD behavior jump in mouth first, and unsteady hands later. I managed in the last 16 years, cross-stitched (and won awards) painted, done the old country store themed house, painted and worked my way through 10 years of ceramics, made Spud McKenzie dogs for my dad's co-workers at GM pool table rooms, made hook rugs, tried to learn to knit, and weaved pot holders. I made trivets in Junior Achievement, my own wood frames, and painted anything that didn't stand still. Lawn ornaments, birthday party favors, pots for plants, my toes...etc..
So, you wonder where could I have imagined myself at the ripe old age of 40+ ..designing water bottles for my little niece's 7yr old cheer team, whoo let the crafty wars begin.
I have a closet filled (call it closet addiction) of over 100 various magazines, for cutting into pieces for my decopage art..but I am so stingy with my clippings I hardly ever glue them into the projects, I had good intentions to use my modpodge glue and create frames, prayer journals, more cermaic pots, glue glue glue..but I instead have a very nice collection of words/flowers/design inspirations in a gorgeous victoria secret pink box. I sit endlessly (yes you wonder when I have time) and clip clip clip my way into infinity.
