December 21, 2011 Favorite Things 2011

This is coming a little late, so maybe you’ll use these ideas for next year! Let me start by saying that for someone who doesn’t really like craft shows, I go to quite a few of them. Usually they are too “crafty” for me. My aunt and I went to Pawtucket, RI to the Foundry […]
