Just Looking

I went to Michael's yesterday, just to look around (no, the kids were not with me, are you crazy?!). I had gone to look at their calender of craft events but knew I would end up walking the isles, dreaming of future projects, and I did. I looked in the stamp and scrapbook isles (many stamping supplies are hidden amonst the scrapbook stuff, but still I resist to be sucked into the world of scrapbooking). I found some scrap pads of paper with different patterns and textures, so I bought one. Also, in the ribbon section I got two spools that were on clearance (is that what you call "things" of ribbons, spools?) It's hard to resist a good clearance deal. Funny, I doubt I would have bought them if they were the same price but not on clearance.

I also browsed the yarn isles. Oh so many different colors and textures!! It made me want to make something. I crocheted a few baby blankets for friends but none for myself. And the other year I made a lovely scarf for my mother-in-law. I had attempted to make one before I made Sharon's but it became a comedy of errors so I put it away. I suppose I can take the yarn out and start again now that I have a better idea of what I am doing. It would make a great Christmas project. In fact I think I will! I am in need of something to do and I want to be creative in some way. Then maybe I'll bust out my card making supplies and bang out some cards with my stuff! Sounds like a plan! I'd better go and find my crochet supplies..............hmmm, now where did I put that stuff when I unpacked???
