Happy crafting!
It is my mum who was always crafting. She made so much things for her children and she take the time to show us how to use what we got under our hands to create new things. She was very amazing.
Now I’m trying to do the same thing with my grand daughter.
I love the trio angel.
Have a nice day
I’m a dad who gets inspiration from my creative children. They always look at craft projects with a fresh perspective.
Glad you stopped in, Randy. You are so right, kids aren’t programmed like adults and they really do look at life with fresh eyes. Keeps it fun and creative! Sharon
Great site! I’m still new to it but like what I see.
I find inspiration all over but to name someone would be my artist friend Jutta. She’s a great encourager! Also, the person I am making something for is my inspiration.
Thank you, Holly. Happy crafting! Sharon
i do a lot of recycle one and then i got my gf hook on them and her mom
Hello, just found you site today and became a subscriber. My joy in crafting satifies my need to make something that will bring a smile to someone else, some sunshine.My love of crafting came from my grandmother who pieced and quilted every quilt that I ever slept under
My Mother enjoyed crafting and now that she is gone I find most of my inspiration from blogs, Pinterest, manufacturer’s websites, etc.
All of these angels are so lovely and whew…am I glad to know you don’t have to be an angel to make an angel!
He, he, Bev. We can’t be angels all the time, right? But yes, you can always make one. Thanks for stopping in. Sharon
I don’t know when I really fell in love with crafting until my DD told me get comp it had so much learn on it.And boy was she right crafters every where. lol i love look at all ladies & men do on here .Amazing things Thanks for letting us see pretty amazing things you can do
Thank you. I’m loving so many of the responses here. Like you, everyone enjoys a sense of community that comes with crafting. Makes it even more fun! Sharon
i just love learning new things all the time and if only you could see my craft room im into beading styrofoam balls at the moment and scrapbooking (over 60 albums) and etc etc clever people inspire me.
I’d love to see your beaded ornaments! Please send a photo! And share it on our StyroCrafts Facebook page, please. Happy crafting. Sharon
I guess I got my love of crafting from my grandmother. She would make quilts and let me make button balls with scraps of fabric and mismatched buttons. My dad also inspired me. He had a wood shop, and we would spend hours making various things with wood. We would also go to craft stores and dream over new ideas. We did a crafts show together one year, and I think he got more joy over giving children some of the small toys he had made than selling them! I also enjoy giving away the items I make to brighten someone else’s day.
My grandkids inspire me. I like to listen to them and use their imagination and way of looking at things.
My family espcially my stepkids inspire me because I love the look on their face when they see what I have made or see something I made for them. Also, knowing that they are learning and create as well.

Mom mainly but my whole family !!
I got my crafting bug from my grandma. She taught me to sew and design without a pattern. Anything I made was always top quality in her eyes. lol. It became a great outlet from a very sad childhood.
I work for a care facility (nursing home). I am always looking for great craft projects to do with my Residents. They are the ones who inspire me to plan interesting and creative programs for them.
My grandmother was always knitting, crocheting and sewing. I didn’t have the patience when I was young and I wish I did. Gram is no longer with us, but I still have some of her handcrafted goodness! And a very old knitting book I swiped from my aunt
And of course people like you, who somehow find the time to blog about these great crafts! I can’t even tell you how many ideas and inspiration I’ve received off of this site and others! Thanks so much!
My family and friends inspire and encourage me to create things. Thank-you for the give away!
Thank you for stopping in.
I owe my love of crafting and creating to, if you can believe, my preschool teacher. I am now 53 years old but I still have vivid memories of when I was four and our teacher showed us how to make a turtle out of all sort of art supplies. I am happy to say I grew up to become a professional crafter and to this day, my mother still has that funny-looking turtle of mine on her kitchen windowsill. Crafts can make for wonderful and lasting memories, especially if you make them with family and friends!
What a wonderful story, Rebecca. We never know the influence we have on people of all ages. Thanks for sharing. Sharon
The person who inspires me is my daughter. She has always been honest with me. At the same time she is always encouraging. She makes me want to craft because I know that she will appreciate it. I would love to win this book. Thank you for giving me the opportunity.
Glad to hear from you Violet. Craft on! Sharon
My grandmother is the one who inspired me to sew and craft. Now it’s all of YOU in WordPress!
And you, too! You have a wonderful blog as well, Katherine.
anna maria horner. thanks for the chance!
You’re welcome! And, thank you.
These are great; I especially love the faux rust effect!
Any book involving Jenny Doh is going to be a great one; I hadn’t seen this before, so thank you for the opportunity to own it!
Yes, those are my favorites, too. And the book is both gorgeous and inspiring! I’m so glad to have a copy I can share.
My mother taught me to knit and has always been my inspiration!
Another mother-daughter crafting duo! Thank you, Christine.
My mother started my interest in crafts. I am so happy she did and wish she were here to share with her what I make and enjoy.
I’m sure your mom would be so happy to know that she has inspired you. She truly lives on in your handiwork. Sharon
My Mom always was doing some craft and I guess I picked up my crafting from her. My 3 daughters are also crafters so it goes on and on.
So glad to see you’ve passed along your love of crafts! Thanks for stopping in, Jeanne. Sharon
