Crafting is my stress reliever, it's a way for me to free myself from everyday madness. Every year I like to learn a new craft or technique. I'm not a Martha Stewart but I do like crafting in other art medias. I'm not a pro or master, just a happy crafter.

Made in the US, valley born, beach dweller, roost in the heart of fashion city. Besides crafting, I'm a wandering, music lover, art lover, and funny life loving person. More about me just below.
