Crafting is an outlet to explore your creative talents. I hear many people say “I have no creativeness.” But everyone is creative in some way. Crafting has so many areas. Scrapbooking/ card making is my first love, but I have enjoyed wreath making, mailbox covers, I have begun to try my hand at painting and wood working. I am always looking to try something new. How do you know if you will be good at it unless you try. The point is you just have to begin. So how do you start? I would first watch U-Tube videos to get an idea what is involved. Then once you decide, look at the space that is needed to do this craft. Next make your list of what you will need for this craft. Research where the best place to order or buy your supplies. Once you have supplies on hand you are ready to start. Do not get discouraged at your first attempt. The question you have to ask yourself is: “Did I enjoy the process of doing the craft?” If that answer is yes, then practice makes perfect…an old adage. Experiment, make it yours. To prefect your craft…watch more U-tube ideas, take a class, join groups. Pinterest is full of ideas. This process is the same no matter what you do. Just keep in mind this craft should satisfy your creative pulse and should be relaxing to you. If it is a stressor for you then it is not the right craft for you, Search again.
