Five snow day craft ideas

   It’s just January and so far this winter has had everything from a polar vortex to southern snow.

Southern snow and mountain memories

   You know, it’s funny how we sometimes want what we don’t (or can’t) have. In this case I am talking about snow.

Pretty in pink jewelry

   The cold weather has slowed down my crafting a bit. But every once in a while I will gather some supplies and settle into a “crafting nest” on my couch.

Five fun Valentine's Day boxes

   Do y’all remember making decorative boxes for Valentine’s Day? You know, those ones you would make for school when it was time to exchange Valentine’s Day cards.

Fancy paper clip bracelet

   Long back I picked up a little bag of fancy paper clips. I wasn’t sure what I would do with them, but for some reason I just had to have them.

Shades of pink for Valentine's Day

   I do enjoy making different types of jewelry. If I’m low on energy or motivation, though, I go to my favorite piece to make…the wire-wrapped cuff bracelet.

What motivates you?

   Brain drain. Maybe that’s what I have. Or maybe I just needed a few days without crafting. Either way, once again I don’t have any handmade items to share today.

   I’m great at thinking of craft ideas or finding them on the Internet. In this post I will share an earring display I made after gathering many ideas on Pinterest.

   Well, let’s see. I had to run an errand to get cat litter and my car just happened to stop by a couple of craft stores. Funny how that happens.

Still stuck on display ideas

   For this to be a craft blog I sure haven’t shared many creations over the last few days, have I?

Freehand wire bracelet

   I really like working with wire. Sometimes I like to work freehand to see what I can come up with.

Too much strength for a woven bracelet

   The crafting from my kitchen bar had been going very well…until I messed up a bracelet I was working on with what I can only guess was my brute force strength.

   I haven’t spent any time in the Creative Cave lately, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been crafting.

It's an orange kind of day!

   It’s an orange kind of day. Tonight is college football’s Discover Orange Bowl, and it will feature the orange of the Clemson University Tigers.

Resolutions or a plan of action?

   I have all kinds of ideas floating around in my head for what I want to accomplish with my crafting and blogging in this new year.
