Tell me what crafts you do. I really like almost all crafts, but I enjoy basket weaving the most. I like designing my own baskets. I'm not real good at following directions to the letter. I nearly always change something.

I like knitting, crocheting, macrame, sewing and making things that I can use everyday.

You sound like you really enjoy crafts. Do make things for your home and for gifts?

I crochet, and I recently started dabbling in jewelry making. I also macrome. I was taught basket weaving as a little girl, but its not something I have continued.

I have a friend who does a lot of crocheting. Jewelry making sounds like a very good craft to do. I have seen ladies go wild over handcrafted jewelry at craft shows.

I do all sorts of crafts. I do plastic canvas and even design patterns. I crochet and have designed a pattern or 2 but not many. I do One Stroke painting. I have also done some wood painting with the cutouts, premade objects and such. I do some beading. I like working with the bigger beads like the ponys and 10mm. I have made some jewelry and beaded banners as well as dreamcatchers and sun catchers.

I do a lot of wooden objects with paint and embellishments. I also have just gotten into making some jewelry. I would love to try basket weaving. Some friends and I made baskets one year with grocery bags and paper ribbon, weaving the ribbon over the brown paper bag. That was really fun and the baskets were cute,too. I also like to make Christmas ornaments of all kinds and sell them. My son likes to help with this.

I love anything made of wood. I wish I was better at painting. I do take tole painting classes a few years ago, but I haven't done much with it since then. You can go wrong getting your son involved. He'll always remember and cherish it.

I crochet, cross-stitch, sew, and make collaged artwork. There are a few others that I dabble in occassionally, but these are the ones that consume most of my crafting time.

I like crocheting and making bread dough magnets. I also decorate straw hats, and make wreaths, or just other little craft projects.

I really like to scrapbook; that is my number one craft. I also just bought a stamped cross stitch quilt, I'm hoping that goes well. I also love to do latchhooking; it is very time consuming! I also like working with felt, and just putting stuff together. Lol I have been wanting to learn how to knit so I can make clothes and blankets and stuff. There are a lot of things I want to learn how to do!

I make jewelry and have played at painting, ceramics and even tie-dye (though I didn't like that too much). I also like making home-made food gifts. My friend scarywhitegirl and I used to do craft fairs together, but now she is moving away.
