Creating...

If you are interested in painting furniture she sells an e-book with great instructions!

I love to create things, and I love to learn how to do something new.  It's really hard to keep my attention on something so I often start new projects and have new ideas.  In the last few years, I've learned to sew; specifically quilt, make hair bows for little girls, to machine embroider, make memo boards, make my own laundry detergent and cleaning supplies, the list goes on and on.

To my family the fact that I've started researching how to do something else is not new.   I always research for days and even weeks before I start something.  There are things that I'd like to do that are way beyond my ability, but then there are somethings that I see and think "Hey, I can do that!" Of course my family just wonders how long it will keep my attention.

Anyway I've been researching how to redo furniture and I've found some really cool blogs that I'd like to share.  Hopefully over the next few weeks I'll have a few pieces of my own to share.  I may never sell anything but I have a few pieces in my house that are older than dirt that need a fresh look.
