Crafty Mishaps

Thu, Apr 16, 2009

Shop Updates

I was just introduced to this site yesterday and thought I’d share. It’s called CraftFail and it’s where crafters submit projects that didn’t necessarily turn out as planned. (Go visit and have a look around!) Because we ALL know that happens! I’ve got so many projects that I’ve done for the blog that didn’t turn out like I planned and decided not to include here. Maybe I should feature some of them here? So, don’t worry if you’re new to crafting or trying a new technique! Many times I do 3-4 ideas before one I like enough to feature here. Have any projects that didn’t turn out like you wanted? Please share in the comments!
