I used to say that I hated fashion, but over the course of the last two years or so I began to realize I am somewhat of a fashionista. I don't always follow fads, but instead I like to design jewelry and clothes. Just a few days ago, I painted a shirt. I bought spray paint, but it didn't spray very well so I decided to take out my paintbrushes and not let the paint go to waste. I mentioned I do jewelry, this includes beading necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Recently, curtsey of my cousin Darious, I love make jewelry out of shrink film. For those of you who don't know what that is I highly recommend you Google it. It's so easy, all you do is draw your design on the shrink film, cut it out, put it in the oven, let it cool then put the pieces together to make a necklace or whatever you choose.
Fashion is so much fun to play around with and to see a work of art when I am done brings a smile to my light pink lips. I get so excited when I am in the craft section of Walmart or browsing through Michael's because there are so many different things I want to try. Every year I find something else to try. I've done stain-glass, candle making, pillow making, latch-hook, stitching patches on backpacks, making bags out of old jeans, painting jeans and t-shirts, scrap-booking and so many craft things on the computer via shutterfly or various computer programs like DVD design. I know I will never run out of ideas or crafts to try at stores because my creativity is sky-high. No one can touch it.
