Two Crazy Crafters

The brand new Where Women Create magazine is such an inspiration. It is as beautiful to look at, as it is inspiring.

I love reading about women who are successful in their field. Whether they own a shop, make quilts from home or create whimsical crafts to sell, they inspire me!

It gives me hope that if I preserver and continue to create items of quality I can be successful, too.

I do not kid myself that I am ready for the pages of this awesome magazine. No, as these pictures will attest, order is not part of our workspace and I’m sure it would not inspire any other woman to want a workspace like ours.

Sorry, ladies, no wide shots here. I am too embarrassed for that. We do have plans and are figuring out what we need to get the most out of our craft room, but right now, we have to share storage space.

I am lucky in that my craft is portable and I can do it anywhere in the house. What I need now is a place to store my yarns, which I have an abundance of.

One of my favorite quotes from the magazine was from Karin Cammel – For an artist, self-confidence is more important than any paintbrush or piece of paper. Define your personal myth and have the courage to live it.

I am excited and thrilled to be a part of Sadie Lou’s Lollishops. I am so looking forward to filling our shop and hopefully provide items that people will appreciate and cherish.

As I think about creating and all of the wonderful inspiration that come from other women like you, I have to say that the most important quote for me is Psalm 51:10 – Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Wishing you much happiness.
