Are you a crafty person? Me, not so much. I grew up watching my mom make flower arrangements with real and fake flowers, wreaths, and more. I would help sometimes but didn’t really grow up with that crafty niche. I look at all the wonderful items you can make with duct tape and things around the house and secretly wish I could be so crafty. One thing I know I am good at (and my mom says this all the time) is putting together baskets. I was always the one around Easter time making the girls and other little ones baskets. It’s just something I loved to do. I mean, it wasn’t enough to just throw stuff in the basket, it had to be to perfection and to a certain standard. I would even get the store made Easter baskets and take them apart, then redo them with extra items. I hope to one day get back into doing baskets because I know I am truly good at it.
My daughter is starting to really get into her crafty stage. She is 11 and is very creative and I really hope she keeps the drive that she has now into adulthood. I see a lot of potential in her especially since she is constantly teaching me new things. Isn’t that crazy? Love it!
What about you? What are some crafty items that you or your child love to make?
