What are your hobbies?

I love photography. I am always trying to learn/find ways to make my craft photos better for my blog. Also, does Pinterest count as a hobby? I do A LOT of pinning.

What are your favorite crafts and what's your craft space like?

I try to make crafts that I can use in my house or give as gifts. I love making vases and candle holders as well as pillows. I really want to get into making jewelry.

Right now I am working in my living room however I just moved into a townhouse and I hope to turn one of the spare bedrooms in my creative lair.

What do you craft along to?

I am either listening to classical or jazz music when I craft. I also like to work to the Harry Potter soundtrack. I find it inspiring and magical. If I am behind on my shows, I try to catch up while I craft as well.

What was the first project you ever made?

The first thing I ever made? Hmm, well I started crafting at a young age, I took arts and crafts classes after school in elementary. Then, as I got older I didn't craft much till I started making my own Halloween costumes a few years back. I didn't like how cheap and expensive the Halloween costumes were at the Halloween store so I decided to start making my own. Ever since then, I haven't stopped crafting since. Whenever I see something in a store I like, I always think to myself "Can I make it?" and "Can I make it look better for cheaper?"

What are your favorite items to make?

I love making anything with gold foil and anything to do with sparkles. I have been obsessed with chalkboard paint especially in pastel colours. I am currently working on making some vases for Spring with chalkboard paint.

Which other craft blogs do you love to read?

I love catching up on Martha Stewart Living, Brit & Co, A Beautiful Mess, P.S. - I Made This..as well as Style Me Pretty.

Is there anything else you'd like to add?

I believe that everyone has a crafty side to them. There is no right or wrong in being creative. I feel everyone should embrace their crafty side and see what they come up with. Sometimes, you can surprise yourself.

Craft Shops In Your Town
There aren't really that many craft shops in Toronto, I usually hit up Michaels because I like to take advantage of their coupons.
