I have always been a lover of crafts. From scrapbooking to crocheting and everything in between I have always enjoyed filling my free time with various craft projects. And I still love to do crafts its that free time that I am lacking. Just thinking about bringing all of my scrapbook supplies out sounds like way too much work. Isn't that sad!?
I used to do a lot of stuff late at night once Daniel went to sleep since he goes to bed early and I am such a night owl but nowadays I'm either exhausted from the day or trying to pick up the house once Gianna goes to sleep. So, I have closets and drawers full of craft supplies that just stare at me longingly (or maybe its me staring longingly at them) and I have come to a point where I'm wondering when I'll ever have time to use them again?
The practical side of me is telling me to just clean out those closets and make room for more useful things but a part of me is thinking that this can't go on forever! I will eventually have free time again right?! (Mom's across the world insert laugh here)
Oh well, I have yet to fully commit one way or the other. I feel like if I throw them out or banish them to storage I am admitting a defeat of some sort. It wouldn't be that bad if I didn't continue to hang out (read, buy more stuff from) Michaels and Joannes and what not. Its like a bad habit I can't shake! I haven't decided what I am going to do but bottom line...I miss my ol' crafty ways! :(
Brianne! That is so sad! I wish we lived closer and we could be crafty together! I love doing crafts too, but it seems I only ever make anything for Christmas or for someone's birthday. I too have a ton of scrapbooking supplies taking space in my closet and I have only ever made like 5 scrapbook pages!
ReplyDeleteI truly believe you will be crafty again! Do not get rid of your supplies! Have faith!
