Mary from London has been on the site for over two years. Let's find out a little more about her and explore her craft space!
Featured Member Interview
How did you find CO+K and why did you join?
My Friend Katie C introduced me to CO+K, I joined immediately because although I loved crafting, I never had any ideas or inspiration. So CO+K was perfect!
What projects are you currently working on?
I am just about to upload an Autumn Leaves necklace but apart from that have an elaborate Siligum mould and crystal resin project which I am about to do. I won't tell you what it is, in case it doesn't work!

What does your craft space look like?
My craft space is shockingly messy, it is also supposed to be my work desk but I can't go near it when I'm supposed to be doing homework because I immediately get distracted and start making something instead of writing an essay/solving equations.
Which tool or craft supply do you use the most?
I use my round nosed pliers all the time, I actually have two pairs because I accidentally ended up with my cousins too.
What do you craft along to?
I always craft along to my iPod, I think if I tried to watch TV whilst crafting I would never get anywhere - I seem to have the attention span of a puppy!
Mary's Most Popular Projects
Favorite Craft
My favourite craft is Jewellery Making, I actually got my ears pierced this summer just so I had an excuse to make earrings! I don't really have a favourite in Jewellery though, I love to make it all.
Mary's Top Crafts
If you could learn one new craft or make anything, what would it be?
I would love to be able to sew and make my own clothes, there are so many lovely projects on this site to make skirts and tops and dresses, but I'm too scared to try any of them yet.
Who are your crafting heroes?
I suppose the internet is my main crafting hero! Other than CO+K, I spend ages on Craftgawker, P.S I Made This and loads of other sites. I go on StumbleUpon and just look at crafting pages for hours on end.
Mary P.'s Favorite Projects
Too many to choose from! I loved the recently featured Stencil Bleached Tee by PaigeKayJay. I keep meaning to make one but just can't decide what my stencil will be. I also love the Afi Bunny Necklace by Ashleigh R. it's really simple but so pretty, I have made one for myself (sorry I didn't upload a version, Ashleigh) and get compliments on it all the time. A project that I don't think I'll ever be able to make but have always admired is Jet H's 'I'm Just a Recycled Plastic Baggy'. I would love to have that bag.
