This collection is the cats pajamas! From mini succulents to mini colouring projects, whatever you fancy the most is here. I personally love these mini craft ideas as a last minute gift idea or when I'm lacking inspirationa. Sometimes it's because I have very little yarn left over and I need to try out a project but most times it's because it's pocket friendly.

There are many different types of craftwork We consider most craftwork to be art in and of itself Art is defined as something that people feel has value because it is beautiful or expresses ideas This perfectly describes the nature and reason for the emergence of handmade crafts Many people have jobs that they have to go to during the day but when they come home and have their free time they enjoy making something with their hands This serves as a stress relief but also creates a sense of fulfillment There are many places to buy art There arent as many people that can really afford to buy fine art That is why Jene has been busy creating her pieces and cataloging them Her website is full of examples of art and craft that reflect her loves and also reflect upon periods of her life Jene works in several different…Read More mediums and several different styles today She is a very talented painter and creates artistically rendered birdhouses from simple unfinished pieces of wood Her birdhouses emulate a love for the beach but she also has roots in southwest Virginia and creates many country-themed pieces Jene also work with wreaths and silf flowers Her creations start with simple wire rings and become beautiful elaborate pieces of art which can adorn the walls of your home for years to come
