The creative wheels are a-turnin'...

If I had a buck for every time I uttered the phrase "Hey, I could make that!", I'd have enough money to feed my habits (craft habits, that is). When I'm shopping or thumbing through a magazine, this phrase almost always makes its way into my head. If I spy a knit hat or scarf - "I wonder if I could make that..."; baked goods at Starbucks - "I could definitely make that."; a cabled turtleneck sweater - "I wish I could make that". Ok, so my skills are not quite advanced enough for sweater knitting. And wouldn't it be easier and cheaper, and wouldn't I curse a lot less if I were to just buy said sweater at Gap? You betcha. But that wouldn't be nearly as fun and satisfying. So, I invite you to witness my messes and successes at being a self-proclaimed domestic goddess. I promise to not swear.
