What does your craft space look like?
Oh dear Lord. It's a hot mess. I have giant desk that I draw on. I have my easels on a Christmas Penguin Plastic sheet and then I have my sewing machine on my kitchen table that I do everything but eat on
Which tool or craft supply do you use the most?
Hands down chalk. Any color. I use chalk for marking on clothing and I use it for my artwork. I'm always losing chalk too.
What do you craft along to?
Usually Dexter or South Park. I paint and draw to usually Interpol or Arctic Monkeys.
