This blog is the result of my love for two things: crafting and blogging. I love both, and I especially love when the two collide. I have been crafty for as long as I can remember.  It all really started in college with scrapbooking and quickly evolved from there.  I quickly added knitting, sewing, beading, and a bunch of other fun crafts to my hobbies.
