pepsink Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 i LOVE to make cards, i find it really soothing, i dont have a lot of money to buy them at the moment, but when i do i can sit for hours, and apparently people like getting them im told that theyre good, sometimes i get excallent, sometimes i dont see it, but i enjoy making them, gives me a sence of achevement and that makes me feel good i also like painting, and colouring i do sometimes like drawing but really not that good, but sometimes its funny to draw and see what shapes or items can be made out of it i sometimes enjoy jewelery making too, but my mums better than me what is every ones favorite pass time, despite weather you feel your good or not ?

catsmother21 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 I enjoy making cards as well but my main hobby now is cross stitch which I find very therapeutic and it really helps with my anxiety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catsmother21 Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 There are some photos of my cross stitches that I have done so far in my gallery - I usually do them for other people but I am working on one for me at the moment and it is a ballerina - it is going to be beautiful when I have finished it. I worked out there's over 70,000 stitches in it and I am just over half way through - so it will be a while before I post a photo of this one!!

Silverwolf Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 I like crafts, i took up a load of them when i worked in a craft super store for 4 years. Every time i worked in a different aisle, i'd be like ooh i could do that, by the end of the day! I do drawing and painting (that mainly started up from my Art Therapy) Card making i'm doing at the moment since i got my inspiration back. I tend to have spates of doing cross stitch. (am still doing one from 5yrs ago, as keep having to unpick bits and start again, but it is a big one so thats ok.) x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
