Birthday Cake - Emma's Birthday Cake... 12 years.
My forte is cake baking, icing and decorating, but I like to do many crafts. I make greetings cards, I knit and sew garments and toys, write poetry, and I like to mix perfume oils to find a unique fragrance. Below, is a pic of one of the cakes I've made.

I had a friend that used to make eggs out of sugar. They were as big as an ostrich egg and hollow. She would fill the inside with elaborate sugar filigree and bunnies and it was amazing to me. I paint on wooden eggs. That way they rarely spoil.

Sugar art? I don't think I've ever heard of that. Anyway, I paint, do photography and baking. I hope to open my own restraunt someday soon. I have many other kinds of crafts that I do with my grandchildren.

I have to limit myself because otherwise the craft stuff overruns the apartment. We live in a small space. I like to knit, crochet, and scrapbook. I can sew, but just do it for the occasional project. (And the scrapbooking supplies are kept at my friend's house, we all scrapbook together and share stuff to cut down on costs.)

I enjoy, scrapbooking, love sewing, i also make bridal bears from scratch. My girls and i make things for their bedrooms, my youngest is into fairies so we made some wall plauqes, from paper and laminating them they look great! My eldest is into masks so occassionally would sit down and paint and decorate some for her room. I love drawing although i dont get too much time anymore but i find drawing quite relaxing. my girls and i love experimenting with different crafts because you just never know what you may be good at. My youngest is right into beading and making jewelry she has been giving me some lessons.. she is so proud of the fact that for once she is showing "mum" how to make something, it really makes me smile :)

I also enjoy cross stitching and cooking. I've finished several cross stitch patterns but I haven't got them framed yet. With cooking, I like baking stuff like cookies and bread. I also like making desserts.
