CRAFT IDEAS & TIPS
~
by Robyne Beaubien
I am not a "crafting" person by nature (much to my
crafty-mother's dismay), but over the years I have learned that many
women LOVE to
spend time crafting with other women.
I have
seen a lot of women bonding around craft tables at WM events and
I am sure that they
will continue to do so. I love sitting and chatting with those
who create these crafts and at times have even attempted to participate.
Many a craft teacher has patted me on the shoulder, smiled and
offered
me the sample to take home instead of the sad little thing I created
from their perfect instructions. So in honor of these patient women,
here are some great craft resources:
