Halloween. Finally.

I am not the kind of crafter who starts their Halloween projects in August and September so that by October, they’ve moved on to Thanksgiving and the holidays. I am the kind of crafter who has to wait for the mood to strike and that mood usually strikes when everyone else has moved on. IContinueContinue reading “Halloween. Finally.”

That was a bit of a revelation toContinueContinue reading “Tag! You’re it.”
