Crafting and crocheting are more than just my hobbies; they are one of my passions!
I’ve always loved crafting and creating! When I was little I was always cutting, glueing or glittering. Then I got my first sewing machine and the love of crafting intensified.
My biggest superpower (and probably a big fault as well) is seeing something and thinking that I can either do it or make it.
When I was 10 I learned how to finger knit and how to knit and that’s when I first began selling my “masterpieces”.
While I’ve never quite learned the ins and outs of sewing I can get by enough to make simple corsets, tops, dresses and skirts. I learned to crochet when I was 12 and will choose it over knitting any day! A fun fact about me is that I’ve NEVER used a knitting or crochet pattern. I just see something I want to crochet and I make it.
Since the rise of Taylor Swift friendship bracelets and booktok I’ve absolutely loved starting a new crafting medium of beading! I love making bracelets inspired by my fave Taylor Swift songs, book characters and Disney princesses!
But by far my favorite thing in the world is adding rhinestones to just about anything! I’d add rhinestones to my dog Huckleberry if he’d sit still long enough!
My life motto: There is nothing a little hot glue and glitter won’t fix!
What started as a basket of poorly knitted and crocheted items at local homeschool meet ups in 2010, an Etsy shop in 2013 and an Instagram in 2014 (where I’ve sold handmade items all across the US and the world) which is now back-ish (when I feel the inspiration hit).
My favorite mediums include; textured art, yarn, fabric, beads and ALL THE RHINESTONES!
Am I this happy crafting or are the E6000 fumes just getting to my head?
