Getting Crafty

Early this year I joined a Craft Club run by the Milwaukee Recreation Department at a local park. My neighbor has been going for awhile and I thought it might be interesting. I'm not especially crafty so I'm a little anxious about how I'll do. The club meets Tuesday mornings and the first four weeks are behind me so I'll share the results.

Macrame Jewelry.  Pretty easy to do, and a way to use up Mardi Gras beads, but I don't expect to wear the results.
Cards for Men & Boys.  I was at a loss on how to even start this.  I'm not especially pleased with these results but might try again on my own.  I never realized there are "kits" for making my own cards.
Fabric Hearts.  This was so far my favorite craft.  The result is on display in my home for the "Valentine" season.  But it was quite messy - I was covered with glue!
String Cards.  Back to greeting cards, but this time I did better.  I might even give these cards to people I know!

Nine more crafts to learn before the semester is over.  Can't wait for the Whirley Gig craft on our last day!

Places of Worship

I follow an online Digital Photography School weekly assignments. A recent theme I really enjoyed was this one. When weather permitted I was outside with my camera at a variety of locations. Some days were just too cold, so I found memorabilia to shoot inside.
