Inspiration

A few weeks before Christmas I was trying to come up with something for my great~niece's first birthday. A girl I work with stopped by my office and was selling hats that she had made. She's a single mom and was trying to make some extra Christmas money. She pulled out some of the cutest hats I had EVER seen so I snatched one up (while thinking "Hey I think I could do that") My youngest daughter had decided she wanted to learn to knit and told me she learned by watching tutorials on you tube...OMH I had to check out this You Tube right away!!! I went with crocheting because it looked easier but I do plan on trying the knitting thing soon. I tried my hand at a scarf first and it turned out pretty cute...I am now spening a great deal of time crocheting and watching tutorials on you tube...I have made a few items that were flops and had to be taken apart but, I have made a few things that I think have turned out to be pretty stinkin' cute. I have even come up with a few ideas all on my own.....WOWZER!That is TRULY amazing for me! There are a few pictures on my crafty blog  and I will be posting some more tonight. I hope you will all join me on my new creative path along with my many other creative interests and maybe even help me along with some new exciting ideas!! lindascreativeniche.blogspot.com
