Yes! Just yesterday I was painting these little wooden hearts I have to make pins out of. Need epoxy to affix the pins to the backs, but other than that, I'm good to go.  :) If my printer was cooperating, I would be printing out pictures on sticker paper and printing picture to make doorknob hangers out of.  :glasses-nerdy: :heart: I used to do a lot of scrapbooking.

I love crafting and wish I was established with something to where I could make money off of what I make.  Haven't found a niche in that respect though.  I love scrapbooking.  Although since I live in a teeny apartment all my scrap booking supplies have been sitting in storage for nearly 7 years and I haven't done much with them.  In fact I gave my now 7 year old all the fun scissors and punches.  I'd love to see images of what some of you are making... that would be fun.

Have you ever thought about making greeting cards or decorating journals and selling them to friends and family and/or online? If you do a search on Etsy, you'll find lots of really cute things like that. Gift tags, too. You might be really good at that! :) :thumbsup:

I finally have time for crafting and have done a variety of crafts in the past (for gifts or personal use, not for selling).    Right now I am totally fascinated with "re-purposing"  (making new things from items a person would probably toss to keep items out of landfill and make do with what one already has). 

You can put in your search bar "uses for"  and any item (tin cans, milk jugs, coffee canisters, glass jars, baby food jars"  and get a ton of ideas.  Also the site Pinterest is the bomb for crafting ideas!!
