Confessions of a Craftaholic
Hi, my name is Jessica and I'm a craftaholic (YIKES, that was scary to admit!). Is there some 12 step program for craft addicts? If so I need to enter one, IMMEDIATELY! I live in a town home with three other fabulously wonderful and beautiful roommates and my craft projects have taken over the apartment. I spend most of my free time either doing crafts or searching for new craft ideas. Speaking of which... Have y'all heard of craftgawker.com or pinterest.com? If you answered yes, you are welcome to join my craftaholic therapy group held monthly at michael's and hobby lobby (and sometimes even those adorable thrift stores and antique shops in the little town square! OH MY GOLLY I get excited just thinking about them!!) Ok, breathe. If you have not heard of them... we are no longer friends... ok, not really but you need to go check them out when you have time RIGHT NOW. What are friends for but to pass along their secrets to procrastination success? :) I practically drool all over my keyboard just browsing these sites for my craft ambitions and inspirations. I spend hours of my life wasting away in front of a computer screen just in awe of all these incredible craft ideas. Pinterest.com doesn't just have crafts though. It also has decor, fashion, accessories, beauty tips, organization methods, recipes, quotes, anything you could ever want and more! And it doesn't end there, you can create different boards to pin your new found ideas, inspirations or beauty know-hows onto and keep them forever! Plus, if you happen to be browsing the internet on your own, say with Google, your favorite blogs or even Stumbleupon, you can literally pin what you come across right onto your pinterest boards from the safety of your own toolbar! GENIUS! I am obsessed in L.O.V.E! As if they couldn't get more clever, you have to be invited to it. You can either submit an invitation request or have a friend invite you, but until then the site is exclusive to members only. Talk about a great marketing ploy, everyone wants to be apart of an exclusive, members-only club! (Especially, when there's no membership fees!).
