I love finding new and different crafting sites for all different types of Crafts. I love beading, knitting, paper crafts basically a little bit of everything. Anything I can get my hands on. But I haven't been doing many crafts lately and I really want to find something that inspires me to gain my interest back into crafting and inspire me to want to pick back up my crafts. Therefore why I"m writing this on mylot. I'm hoping that some of my fellow crafters will know a few sites that have inspired you with creative pieces. I'd love to see all the different sites ya'll have and come up with and please feel free to explain why you picked that site out of the sites that you love being on or list them all. The more the marrier! I really need the Inspiration =D

I don't know many sites but you could check out artfire. People make many things and sell them on there. So if you want to sell your crafts or looks for stuff on there for ideas you might want to give that a shot. Because I like crafts to. But I make soaps and candles and put them on that site myself.

There are a lot of things on there that people have done. And they sell them. Not everyone is so high in price but some can be very high on there items. I thought there would be a lot of crafts on there for you to see. You are very welcome for the site.

Etsy is great for those that want sell their homemade creations or for those that like to purchase them, but I don't really go on there that much to be honest. I do spend a lot of time browsing Heaven and Earth Designs website just aweing over the cross-stitch patterns they have available. I'm also a member at crossstitchforum.com which is a lovely little cross-stitching community forum type place. I love it, but if you may not find much there to interest you if you don't do much in the way of cross-stitch.

actually a few months ago I started cross stitching and it's interesting. Although I found out I started doing it wrong lol. But I learned a little bit. And yes the forum is for cross stitching but it may help giving me ideas for creating my own patterns and things I've beenw anting to do :)

I want to get back into doing mosaic art jewelry boxes and also painting small bird houses and make wind chimes. I have been so busy with school lately and now that my husband is in school I have been busy helping him out as well. I have to buy the windchimes and the birdhouses, but of course that takes money. I am hoping that once I am in school I will have time to do these things as well. Actually, if I set aside two days a week and just do my art projects I should be fine. If anyone knows where I can buy little bird houses cheaply please let me know.
