About Family Crafts
It is easy to plan ahead and get a jump on making that perfect holiday gift for everyone you know! This collection of books contains something for everyone.
This is what the Shrine looked like before we all set up our booths.
The Impatient Crafter™
There's a free holiday themed project every week until Christmas at The Impatient Crafter™! This week it's a jaunty snowman ornapendant that both you and your tree can wear.
Here's our booth all set up before all these people came in:

What a great event!
So now onto the crafting, well sort of. I am going to tease you and only give you the "before".
Ya'll have to come on back tomorrow to see what I turn this cool pink polka dot skirt I scored at Swap-o-rama-rama into.
Hint: There is a photo of a different version of the project I will show you how to make tomorrow in a past post.
It was great seeing you Stephanie and congrats on the book. I'm reading it cover to cover! I so wanted to come over to make and take, but had not time. Let's keep in touch. Oh, here's my latest sweater surgery and now I'm inspired to do more. http://bonnindesigns.blogspot.com/
