Arts and Crafts

I have a very crafty roommate. She knows how to make earrings, necklaces, weave, color, and much more. My friend next door knows how to crochet, scrapbook and cute little magnets. Being surrounded by such crafty people raises my craft-skills by ten points. It is so incredible. I never thought I would learn so much in the dorms.

I learned how to crochet and made great homemade presents for Christmas. It was a cheap way to make gifts, and my family and friends LOVED them! And it is not hard. At all. However, it is much easier to find out how to do it with the help of a person. It is much harder to try to do this by the internet.

And making earrings is not difficult either. It takes one tool, beads and a couple of metal parts. Also they make great gifts.

Crafts are quite great to do while watching Grey’s anatomy. I either blog or crochet while watching TV (I’m a notorious multi-tasker). Learning a craft and taking advantage of the knowledge of those around you is a great idea to create something unique and totally you.
