BARB'S HANDY TIP #235
Learn some Arts and Crafts - in time for Easter, you know?
I found this wonderful resource recently - chock full of great content on almost any type of craft you could be interested in. This is what the author of the site says:
"Are you an Arts and Crafts lover like me? Don't worry as we are not alone. Arts and Crafts are introduced to us at a very young age and for some of us it becomes a passion that never goes away. I have spent hours, weeks, & months compilling this directory of very useful Arts and Crafts related websites."
" Why? you ask... Well there are hundreds of thousands of Arts and Crafts websites made for and by people like you and I. Although this is awsome, finding that particular product or piece of information can be troublesome. I have put together this directory of Arts and Crafts website by handpicking evry single website one by one and visiting each of them. I have separated them into useful categories and included a search to make it even easier for you to find what you are looking for. "
I hope you have a fabulous time with your beautiful daughter.

ReplyDeleteI love slumber parties and sleepovers. I haven't been to one since I was a girl. You know, I think we adult women of the world should re-enact slumber parties and make them for grown ups too. I can only imagine they would be even more fun than when we were kids!
