My entire life has been revolved around crafts. My mom ran an arts and crafts store (we won't mention the name) for about 10 years. Most of my pre-teen years, my sister and I spent alot of time there. We used to have to separate the DMC floss. UGH! What a pain. They used to pay us $10 just to do it, so they didn't have to. Anyway, we learned how to do many things, met alot of artists, and had alot of fun with the people that worked there. We made all of our friends their Christmas Presents and cards and so on. I was very disappointed when a really cool scrapbook store closed that was also affiliated with the place my mom worked for (again, we won't mention). Anyway, all the good little stores closed and we had to shop at the big retailers. I don't like the big retailers, they are messy!!!!
So, for my birthday this year, I had lunch with my mom and sister. My mom had learned there was a new scrapbook store close by and we decided to go after lunch. When we finally got there, my mom being the talker she is, started chatting away with the owner about how her house could be store, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, the owner had mentioned that she was looking for some teachers to have classes at her store. So, I went back and bought some scrapbook stuff, and started making some projects. This is the first time I will be teaching adults and I am pretty ecstatic about it.
