I don't do many 'crafts' per say except for my sewing and crocheting.

I still cross stitch from time to time and painting on fabric, but other than that I don't do many crafts.

What crafts do you do?

Mainly crafts that require fabric - sewing, quilting.

Soapmaking and essential oil bath salts.

Always looking for new, easy crafts to try.

Not many. I crochet sometimes. Floral design sometimes. I've tried many, but not many hold my interest long enough to continue and do as well with them as I want to. I've found that I'm far less crafty than I used to be and prefer spending money on different things now. I'm sure it has a lot to do with my interests being different than they used to be. I enjoy working on the sites, writing, and gardening now more than anything else.

Once or twice a year I'll crochet, x-stitch and sew. Not much into crafting.

Quilting, crocheting and gardening. Otherwise I stay away from all the new craft ideas that keep coming out every 6 months or so.

I use to do them all and then decided to pick one and that was quilting. Then along came some great crocheting tutorials at the village and I'm getting hooked. Gardening has always been there although I guess thats not a craft and yet can be (especially when I see SOME gardens).

Quilting, crocheting, knitting, sewing, plastic canvas, beadwork. I also do tiny bits of cut/glue, crosstitch, embroidery and such from time to time. I have a room full of craft stuff.

I do a lot of dolls, doll clothes (Barbie type, bed dolls, etc)

I used to paint ceramics & make gel candles but last summer I gave away all my craft supplies but now that my oldest DD is expecting their first baby next June I am checking out scrapbooking:D I just have to convince her to take LOTS & LOTS of pictures of my Grandbaby for me since they live in Ga. & I live in Wa. state :(

Soapmaking and essential oil bath salts.


Any pointers for getting started? I've always thought this sounded like fun.

I'm pretty bad about not making time to do much anymore. I used to sew, crochet, embroider, do needlepointe, silversmith, do lapidary, do some wood working. I can't see well enough to do many of those anymore, so I need to find new hobbies -other than sitting around reading books and watching old movies!

I like things to do with paper: scrapbooking, journaling (not just writing but using things cut out of magazines, cards, etc.), card making, decopauge (sp?), and I do a bit of sewing. I'd love to do more sewing but I don't have anywhere to put my machine and leave it up and it's such a hassle to drag it out just to "fool" around with it. I also have a good supply of soap making things although I haven't used them in awhile.

Not much anymore. I used to do a lot of needlework and metalsmithing and woodworking, but I never seem to have time/energy for ANYTHING anymore. WAHHH!!!
