Hello and Hi There from My Handmade Hell!

Hi all!

I am so excited to have been accepted as a contributor to this co-op! I have been browsing for weeks now, and I am so inspired by the things you guys do!

I have this silly little blog I've had for a while, and I like it a lot: it's called My Handmade Hell and it's basically all about my efforts to match my creativity with my time, budget, and materials - none of which I have very much of!!

A little about me I guess: I'm a single mom of two in my early thirties with a full time job. So time is short! My refashions are almost never planned, because I often have to jump right into it whenever I get inspired. No time to waste!

I love to Make Things. My kids also Make Things. I post all the Things I Make on my blog - whether it be refashions, from-scratch sewing, jewelry-making, knitting/crocheting, or even food. I try to post SOMETHING every day, and I try to post a recipe once a week. Sometimes I fail miserably when I try to make something - I post those on my blog too. :)

Here are some of the refashions I've done on my blog in the past:

Sweatshirt to Romantic Cardigan

90's Dress Refashion

Hat from Sweater

Sweatshirt to Cardigan Refashion

I like to think I have a lot of personality, and I further like to think that my personality shows in my blog, and hopefully in my posts here as well! I almost always do step-by-step photos and/or tutorials when I Make Things, so I hope that you'll enjoy my posts.

Thanks so much! I'm looking forward to being part of this amazing community. :)

XOXO
