Let me know your age, and how you got started ! It would also be interisting to know where you are from . I live in Florida , and I have several crafts I enjoy . I do Scrapbooking , floral arranging , plastic canvas needle point , I make Cigar box purses and gift baskets !

I'm 52 yrs. old , and my late Aunt Betty got me started crafting 30 years ago to keep me busy while my children were away for the summer to keep me from going crazy !

I am 26, and I crochet a lot; but I also make jewelry. The jewelry I make is under the 'chainmaille' or 'maile' category. I got into that when I went to the Michigan Renaissance Festival and saw a bracelet that I liked. My boyfriend at the time bought it for me, and after I got home I noticed it wasn't of the best craftsmanship and decided I could do better. I did some research online for supplies and have been making and selling it for 6 years.

Reply:I have tried several things and i am good at them, but with 4 kids at home and 1 with Diabetes I don't find the time to do them. But the things I did were making pinatas, and glass boxes with preserved real butterflies, and cool kids cakes. I am 33,and I just seen theese things in a magazine with dirrections on how to do them thought it would be fun si I did it.

I got started a few years ago when my mom got into crafts. i was always a fan of the arts but then i noticed crafts can be just as fun and more rewarding.
Reply:Let's see, I'm 25 and do lot's of crafts on and off as the whim takes me.



My favorite is to make jewelry, but I don't do it constantly, just when I'm feeling inspired. I'd like to learn more in the silver smithing vein.



I like to make cards using stamps and such and have just made a bunch of Halloween themed ones. I'll attempt some x-mas ones if I have the time. (I hope I do!)



When I was younger, I made ten thousand pot holders and recently got back into weaving more pot holders.



I'd like to learn how to do free-style embroidery as it's much less confining than counted cross stich.



I work on other stuff, but not enough to include here. I love to craft!



Oh yeah, I plan on making fizzy peppermint bath salt soaks, and brown sugar/vanilla lip scrubs for x-mas this year for all of my girls, I'm really excited about that!
