Cleaning out the closets

21 May, 2008 (13:47) | Crafting, General | By: User ImageKim

Since Saturday we have been having some pretty crappy weather.  It has been raining non stop so going outdoors and getting some work done out there has not been an option.  So I have decided that it is a perfect time to clean out my craft closet.  My goodness I didn’t realize the amount of junk stuff that I have hoarded away.

This is just a little example of all the supplies I have on hand.  I have a closet full (sorry Daniel.  It’s my son’s closet) of fabric and yarn (and when I say full, I mean jam packed).  I have three, three drawer stands full of scrapbooking supplies, more fabric, more yarn, books, cross stitch supplies and plastic canvas supplies.  I also have three totes filled full of jewelry supplies.  And…can’t forget my sewing table full of sewing supplies (over 100 spools of thread).

So after checking out all the stash I have and realizing I can’t throw a thing away, I have decided that I really either need to get started on some serious crafting projects (to eliminate the junk stuff) or find another closet.  What do you all think??  Another closet??

Site update

8 November, 2007 (15:16) | General Crafts, Crafting | By: User ImageKim

As you can all see, this site is pretty much brand new with not a whole lot of content in it YET.  There is a reason for this.  That’s because I don’t have a whole lot of crafts finished that are ready for sale yet.  I have been working quite steadily on a couple of quilts and I just received my first jewelry kit in the mail so I will be working on this craft as well.  I have posted a couple of pictures so you can get a small glimpse into what will eventually be on sale and I welcome you all to come back again for another peak real soon.

Crafting as a job

30 October, 2007 (00:12) | Crafting | By: User ImageKim

Six months ago I gave up my full time job working outside of the home to become a stay at home mom.  Although for the most part this was an awesome decision to make on my part, there was one down side to this all.  And that would have been the missing paycheck.  So…to compensate for this, I have slowing started setting up my own little home crafting business.  I have decided that since I enjoy working on a large amount of crafts, that I could really turn this into a money making venture.

So, I would like to welcome you all to my home crafting site, Simply crafting.  I hope you enjoy your stay while you are here and if you see any items of interest to you, just let me know and hopefully we can make a deal.

On this site, you will eventually find homemade quilts, cross stitch pieces, plastic canvas patterns and homemade jewelry for sale.  I invite you all to stop in and take a look around and be sure to tell all your friends of all the different crafts that they have the option to purchase through this site.
