Crafty Hands

Crafty Hands I have always enjoyed craftmaking and feel so proud when I see what I am able to accomplish I am 72 years old, retired and disabled.

I have enjoy making diffent types of crafts my whole life. Because I live on a fixed income I can no longer work and am struggling to make ends meet

I have decided to make crafts/gifts to help supplement my income. I am not planning on becoming a big business ~ I am a hobbist and am hoping to make a little money each month (even $100 would be a great help~ I do not use etsy or have a web site as

I can afford the expense or have a % of the money I do make take out by these vendors ~ all my products are advertised here and sold here and I try to keep my prices as low as possible without affecting good craftmansship. I am hoping there are people out there the will suppor my hobby making because I cannot compete with others who are becoming a business. Please, don't only support USA hand made items, please help support retired low income individuals ~ If you have an idea for a product please let me know because when I used to make my magnets they were all special request and I was doing good until Covid hit ~ since than all sales stopped and I am struggling to get buyers back to my site. If you see products I ued to make let me know and I can see what I can do for you. Thank you for reading this and please, again, support retired, low income retired crafters who need a little help to get by

This is a beautiful poem and so true ~ treasure every moment you can with your child because you will never know when it will be "The Last Time"

The Last Time
From the moment you hold your baby in your arms you will never be the same
You might long for the person you were before
When you had freedom and time
And nothing in particular to worry about
You will know tiredness like you never knew it before
Days will run into days that are exactly the same
Full of feedings and burping
Nappy changes and crying
Whining and fighting
Naps or a lack of naps
It might seem like a never-ending cycle
But don’t forget…
There is a last time for everything
There will come a time when you will feed your baby for the very last time
They will fall asleep on you after a long day
And it will be the last time you ever hold your sleeping child
One day you will carry them on your hip then set them down
And never pick them up that way again
You will scrub their hair in the bath for one last time
And from that day on they will want to bathe alone
They will hold your hand to cross the road
Then will never reach for it again
They will creep into your room at midnight for cuddles
And it will be the last night you ever wake to this
One afternoon you will sing “the wheels on the bus” and do all the actions
Then never sing them that song again
They will kiss you goodbye at the school gate
The next day they will ask to walk to the gate alone
You will read a final bedtime story and wipe your last dirty face
They will run to you with arms raised for the very last time.
The thing is, you won’t even know it’s the last time
Until there are no more times. And even then, it will take you a while to realize.
So while you are living in these times, remember there are only so many of them and when they are gone, you will yearn for just one more day of them.
For one last time.

English Garden Candy Bar Wax Melts ~

Smells like fresh-cut flowers with the sweet and subtle scent of lavender. Overall, it has a floral scent, but one that is light and fresh, without being too strong.
I used a pinch of mica which gives a beautiful and uniqe swirl design as the candle is melting. Truly mesmorizing to watch.
Each is hand poured, carefully wrapped in cellophane, and then wrapped with my own hand crafted label.

$5.00 each + shipping
