Happy Earth Day! 🌎

I had one hour today. So I grabbed some scrap paper, mod podge, cut of ribbon, and cans out of the recycling bin.

Did I know what I was doing?

Nope.

This is a Kalanchoe plant. I have tons available if you want one. 😅

When one crafters passion shifts, they aid those still with the spark.

We went to a craft show today. But not the kind you're thinking of. These vendors were selling their craft materials. So I came home with some ribbon, a resin oven, and so new displays.

Its been a week where it feels like every project has flopped... 😮‍💨

So coloring seemed like a stress-free option that I couldn't fail at.

What's something you do when you're feeling overwhelmed?

New project and... failed. 😮‍💨

I'm sad to report that we didn't make it to Hinckley Buzzard Day this year. 😭 I have been fighting a cold and just couldn't find the energy to get there.

I've been really sad that I had to miss... and hope it's a great day there for the other vendors.
