Are you the creative type? What sorts of things do you create? Art, projects, crafts, food?
I'm the creative type and have loved to create things all my life. I'm happiest when using my hands to create. I do things like quilting and crafts or things I need. Like last week I make myself a bulletin board with a city shaped corkbord buildings at the bottom and rhinestone night stars. I've made my cat a quilted mattress/pillow for her bed that's got her name on it. I've made tons of baby quilts. Lamp shades, curtains, covered boxes in fabric and then decorated them to make pretty storage, I've made doggie basinets and wedding stuff. I also like to create with food, I love gourmet cooking and baking. For me when my perfectionist side and my creative side can meet, work together and create something I'm proud of, it's the only time I'm truly at peace.

I am creative when it comes to crafts to a point. I can't draw worth anything, but I make candles and soap. I even have my own business doing it. I have always wanted to make baby quilts , but I never figured it out. Your bulletin board sounds cool. Do you have a picture of it?

That's pretty cool that you make candles and soap. I bet that's fun. I don't have a picture but I'll take one soon. Baby quilts are super easy, I don't knit or anything but I use all kinds of fabrics and patterns and use german thread to had embroider (sp?) some of the designs to bring them out more. I make them and either give them away or keep them for when someone has a baby. I've thought of selling them and little ones for pets.

I love designing especially putting sequins, glitters and beads in my slippers, shirts and bags...I made a super nice slipper last summer and I'm very happy about it..But I really don't know how to draw..Too bad!:(

Create is one of my favorite hobbies! I essentialy create decorative objects like mirrors, candles, candlesticks... etc and jewels too! therefore I work various materials
Unfortunately, my job takes me more and more time and it is impossible for me to create after a hard day's work, so I did nothing for months
