Since moving to Sturbridge I have become a really crafty person. I had to find something to do with my time during the long dark winter. I wasn't, still not, use to it getting dark at 5pm. I was accustomed to day light until 7 in the winters. So I had to find things to do to keep myself busy after 5. I couldn't sit on the computer all night, I can only color and play games with the kid for so long. What else is there to do? I like to draw, I knew how to crochet and sew. So I do one or more craft projects a day.
I recently taught myself how to knit, so now my kids and I all have 20 knitted hats each. Crazy!
My daughter and I have also started to make, as she calls them, hair thingys. She loves them, I love them too because now she lets me style her hair again without a big fight.
So......What do you do on long winter nights?
