crafts and shit.

where do i put a thread that is about crafting? because i want to know. MODS? do we have a designated forum for that? can i get a ETA or whatnot? do i put it in art? because noe. or you can just go ahead and move this wherever you feel necessary in the .8 seconds after i hit submit.

who on kr (that i like) crafts? actually if i don't like you you can reply to this thread too. just because i don't want to feel left out. what do you craft? is there any message board about hipster crafting? like i don't want to talk to old ladies about their x-stitch, i'd rather talk to ppl in their twenties. so help a sister out.

do you sell your crafts? have you ever been to etsy.com? personally i like it better than ebay. one of kind shit you know.


give me the lowdown. clotty & i went into the craft store the other day - whilst heavily hungover & delirious & it was a weird experience. like we had to be over 50 to enjoy it. none the less i really want to start making shit. so tut tut.

flaming banter will be ignored SRY2SAY.

My mom knitted me two really cute scarves, but thats the only thing she can do because it consists of a straight line. I tried and all the little holes on mine were different sizes and it looked awful and curled at the end. And it was like 3 feet too long.

I made a purse once. I don't have patience to attempt anything else though.

I would love to be crafty but I just don't have it in me.

I always wanted one of those bejeweller things when I was younger. I'd probably just end up with those little jewels stuck in my finger or something because thats how uncrafty I am.

Tigz, is there a Michaels or Hobby Lobby where you live? They have cool crafty things and a lot of it you don't have to be a pro to make. It's been awhile since I've been in one, but they had stuff to make your own stationary/cards, or candle-thingy's or things with beads. I don't remember what kinds of things with beads, I just remember all the packages of pretty beads. You may have to invest in a glue gun if you don't already have one.

I used to sew when the babies were, well, babies. Curtains, quilts, pillows, dust ruffles for bed...etc.

I took knitwear last semester, you do it on a machine.. i didn't see the big deal.
I prefer weaving. I have a loom but its been a while. I only get arts and crafty for assignments.
I want someone to teach me how to crochet clothes like my great gran did.
Ohh, I have been feeding my vintage button addiction pretty hard lately and started getting into art deeco bakelite belt buckles to start making my own. haven't got that far yet. like these:

agreed, esp. the idea of using premade shit & calling it "creative"

i knit, but except for maybe scarves i'd never sell anything i made.

i've just this year started knitting. i made three scarves out of really chunky wool... one of them was a bright pink that i really have no use for,
and the other two were tufty black and cream that turned out pretty much exactly like this:



i also knitted a sort of case thing out of multicoloured pastel eyelash wool and a really soft baby pink wool, i keep my cigarettes and makeup in it. i just knit for the sake of it and occasionally end up with something of utlity
