What crafting hobbies do you dabble in?

froggieslover @froggieslover (3069) • United States 8 Oct 09

I am a stay at home mother and I just recently quit smoking, and with winter coming I am looking for something to keep myself busy while the kids are at school and I am here by myself. I have dabbled in crocheting but only know...

kymommy72 I'm what you would call a jack of all trades and a master of none when it comes to crafting. I dabble in a bit of everything. I sew, mess around with beads and paper crafts. Do a bit of candle and soap making. I just can't stick to one particular craft. I love...

kymommy72 My little girl was easy. She's going to be 2 years old two days before halloween on the 29th. She's still young enough that she doesn't really get the whole costume thing. My sister in law gave me the cutest kitty costume. It's black and white, super fuzzy and...

Did you say good morning to a stranger today

venus7992000 @venus7992000 (46) • United States 15 Nov 08

In New York people pass one another without saying good morning. I think it's a nice gesture; even though you don't know the person. Some, not all have become so wrap up in their daily lives they forget we are all in this...

kymommy72 As a former New Yorker, I know exactly what you mean. I think it happens in the big city because you can't ever be sure about who you are saying good morning too. Will that person get mad at you..well..just because, will they take that as an invitation to try...

My children will not have the same Christmas they had last year...........

Linda4ualways @Linda4ualways (2282) • United States 15 Nov 08

With the economy being the way it is, I already informed my children that this Christmas will not be like the Christmas' of the past. My children have always had wonderful ones, basically getting what they asked for but being that...

kymommy72 I can completely understand that. I honestly believe Christmas isn't all about the gifts. If you are all together, healthy and happy, then count your blessings and enjoy the day. Things will be tight for us this year too. Thankfully my kids are young, 3 and 1,...

So I have a ton of CDs that I got from work that have OLD stuff on them that we don't need anymore and can't be reused for anything other than a recycled craft. I need some ideas. I'm looking for something really unique that I can...

How meaningful is the word "sorry" to you?

Roseo8 @Roseo8 (2947) • India 12 Nov 08

The word SORRY is used quite commonly these days.But very often its not being used for apologising,its more a habit. The word sorry means a sincere apology offered right from the bottom of the heart,after realizing your...

kymommy72 It only means something to me if the person is truly sorry. I agree that it has become way to mechanical. It's so easy to say your sorry, but then more often then not, the same mistakes are commited. To be truly sorry to me means you don't cause that same harm...

I am working on some chokers to list in my Etsy store ( http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6366347 ) and I am trying to find what the "average" neck size for women is. I can't find any info for it on the web, so I thought maybe...

pam9979 @pam9979 (47) • Philippines 10 Nov 08

My husband was recently offered work abroad and he is thinking of accepting it. he said he can come home every six months to see us, but I'm worried about my 3 year old son growing up without him. Relocating abroad with him is...

kymommy72 I wouldn't let the hubby do it. Little ones grow up so fast and he would be missing out on seeing him grow. A long distance relationship would be a strain on the marriage too, I think. It's always a rough decision, when more money is involved, which could in...

kymommy72 That's too cool. I've never heard of layaway online. I think Kmart made a very smart move offering layaway again, especially with the way the economy has been. A lot of people just don't have a large amount of cash all at once to just buy things off the shelf....

Do you make what you love or what will sell?

kymommy72 @kymommy72 (588) • United States 6 Nov 08

I'm curious as to everyone's answer to this. As craft sellers, do you make the crafts you make simply because they make you happy or do you make the items you think will sell even if you don't really enjoy making them that much?...
