.  As  many  of   you  know  my  hubby,  aka Joe,   is  quite a talented  wood worker.  A  few years  ago I found  a cutting  board at  a fabric  store.  It  is  36 inches  square and  I  had  no  place  for it but  I  really needed  to be able  to measure  my  tote bags flat.   Super Hubby  to  the  rescue!   We  found  kitchen counter top  in a cutting board  pattern an  inch thick  and  36 inches  square.   Joe  whipped  up  some  legs  and   I  am   all  set!  I  just  laid  the  measuring  board on  top  for  a perfect measuring "stick"   Some   of  our  family  members  laugh at  us  for  frequenting  thrift  stores  and  garage  sales  and  I  just  tell  them  "When   you  come  to  our house you'll  know  you  have  been  somewhere."

Welcome Joyce, jump in and  make yourself at home!

Hi everyone I only have a little bit to say. If there are typos it is because I can see the monitor very well. The letters move around and  disappear. I was looking into craft shows but it takes a while to get going in them.  Plus it is costly to start up.  This is a great option. I don't have to find someone to  go with me to unload. It is affordable. I don't have to leave my home. I am far from set up yet but still working on it. I love doing String Art. I hope you get a chance to look at my work. II have enjoyed Handmade Artist  and appreciate all they offer. I  am a  grandma and love the children. Both my children, (boy & girl) are grown. I look forward to seeing everyone's work. You can  look at my work on Coley's String Art, Joycemi. I still Have much to add. This sounds stupid but how do I post/send this?

I hope so, i just recently joined. Seems to be active. my items are getting posted on the Facebook page.

Hi, I'm new to the forum and to the site. I'm liking what I'm seeing so far!


Does anyone know if there is a dedicated website for the handcrafter/artisan community that has the same model as Twitch (www.twitch.tv)?
