2014 New Year and New Hope - A Fresh Start Once Again!

Hi All,
I have been so busy doing I don't know what, but the time has flown by and it's the New Year already!  I feel like I'm a day late and a dollar short this past year especially.  I guess maybe it's getting older and I can't keep up like I used to! I used to say "I'm too old for this S**T!  Now I have realized that I really am! LOL!!!

On Christmas I start to feel a rebirth of energy because of the BIRTH of Jesus and then the 1st day of the New Year makes it a fresh start and gives me alittle more energy to start anew!   I hope that all y'all and everyone you know has a great start this NEW YEAR!

Hopefully, I will get some videos up so stay tuned!

Bless you all and happy crafting,
Linn

A Tip for Making Your Own Drawer Pulls or Knobs

Hi All,
     So sorry I've been absent but I have been making a lot of DECOR' Pieces and they are originally by someone else so I haven't been making any videos.  Anyway... I love to make little gift boxes and drawers but I run out of the Tim Holtz "Hitches" that are perfect for Mini drawer pulls, so I came up with my own version that I love and is a lot cheaper than Tim Holtz and much easier to get!LOL
I use Eyelets (ordinary plain ones you get at Joann's) and Brads!  Yes just these two things and Viola...you have a mini knob or drawer pull!   I have tons of BRADS that I ordered from Oriental Trading and never used many!  Now I use them all the time and they were extremely cheap to get tons of them!  I like to use the 1/4" head size brads and these have the 1/2" prongs so you can use them on cardstock or like me know using a lot of chipboard.  Watch the video below!!! Enjoy...  I'll try to come up with something again soon.

Happy Crafting,

Merry Christmas to All!

Hi Gang,
I have to start out with an apology for not getting all 12 videos out!  I can not believe that every weekend this month I had out of town family!  No one came for more than 6 months and then BOOM! LOL  Well, I lost about 6 weeks when I fell and re-injured my back then the out of towners (which I love and wouldn't want to have missed them) but just CRAZY this year!  The end of this year was kinda sucky but I'm still hangin' in there.  I always feel new and fresh on the 1st day of the new year like it's the beginning to try again and get it right!  SO.....
May all of your wishes and dreams come true for you and your loved ones and may the spirit of Christmas raise your spirituality!  I'll see you in 2013 and hopefully I'll get a better handle on things!

Happy crafting,
Linn
