I always loved crafts. I would beg my grandmother to teach me how to knit, sew, crochet, cross stitch, embroider, hook rug, and bead. Both of my grandmothers are artists, my late great grandmother was a painter, and my great aunt is an artist. I suppose the crafting gene skipped over my mother, however, who absolutely hates anything to do with glue sticks, scissors, and glitter. I love it.
I started this blog to catalog some of my ventures into crafting. I am hesitant to label myself in general, but I am certainly more of an earthy-crunchy type. I get a good chuckle when people call me a dirty hippie. The "dirty" part of the title has another meaning- many of the crafting materials which I use are found dumpster diving or have been recycled. I try to make things with as little waste as possible, and as little monetary/environmental cost as possible.
I am admittedly very good at starting projects, and not the best at finishing them. Hopefully this will give me an incentive to finish projects and post them to gloat. Feel free to contact me at dirtyhippiecrafts@gmail.com
Namaste!
