About Me
A glimpse into my creativity
So...let's see. I've been creative as far back as I can remember. My brother said I was making music on the toy piano at 3 years old. As a child I would pickup small rocks, then paint them with nail polish into the shape I imagined they were (a car, a ladybug, etc.) Anyone can be creative, just use your imagination.
At the age of 5, I remember making my own special recipe - "Mud Cookies", lol. Sitting at a table mixing flour and water. And then a touch of color...mud will do the trick. Top it with a beautiful fake pearl, set to dry. My brother came by and said "Hey Sis, what you making?" And before I could answer he picked one up and started crunching on it. Then he said "Hmm, pretty good!", and walked away. To this day I still get a kick out of it.
Of course balancing creativity with daily tasks, working, and family can be challenging, so I have to pick one at a time, ONLY one (sigh).
What's On The Menu?
Today's Featured Craft: PAPER BEADS
My current passion is making Paper Beads. Just about any kind of paper can make some really beautiful beads to use in projects such as Jewelry Making, Keychains, Decor, etc.
I love paper beads because they're inexpensive to make, fun, and each bead is unique, in color, patterns, mood, size and shape. They are extremely light weight, great for earrings. I can't wait to see how the next beautiful bead will turn out.
More content coming soon on various bead shapes, techniques, glazing and more!
