A Crafty Blog…Maybe

Hey look, another craft blog…yeah…cue the half-hearted applause. Let’s all make paper mache hats for our dogs and bejeweled pine cone air fresheners for the mantel.

Or not.

If that’s your thing, awesome. I bet your dog looks a heck of a lot cuter than mine and your living room smells great, but those kinds of crafts aren’t my bag. I might be crafty, but I’m a bit like a chimp…I’m only really interested in things I can play with or eat.

I’m also really cheap er, um frugal. Some people may think that’s a slanderous thing to admit, but I don’t see it that way. I’m frugal and proud, but that doesn’t mean I’m no fun! I patch my jeans, save broccoli stems for slaw, and make toys out of trash so that I can get down on the ground and play with my kids until we’re all hungry for something wholesome and delicious all while saving a buck.

So, if you’re the kind of person who has a closet full of empty yogurt containers, old socks, egg cartons, shiny foreign coins, and spools that you just can’t bring yourself to toss because you’re sure you could do something interesting with them, then we’ll get along just fine.

Come on by and check out my toy projects, games, experiments, and maybe even an occasional food-related thing (snacks, anyone?) which will plop on Fridays. And if you like what you see, check out my books, MAKE THESE TOYS and coming soon, PLAY THESE GAMES for more fun.
