• Passion is the driving force behind learning.
I love making handmade or homemade items for friends and family. It is always fun to make something special and bring a smile to someone’s face. Making items for family or friends show them that you genuinely care about them. These projects are so much fun because you start with little or nothing and end up with a great product!
Each year for Christmas the family excitedly waits to see who will get what handmade or homemade item. Their favorites are crochet scarves and blankets. Strawberry jelly and salsa are always at the top of the list. But last year Santa left the cookies and took all the salsa right out of the stockings!
