In December 2021, I received a very thoughtful and desired gift. I received a Cricuit machine! I loved the color and it had been a dream of mine to have one of these machines for ages. I finally had one and I found myself in this new place of … I had NO CLUE how to use it. What was once a strongly desired product became intimidating and I was embarrassed that I could not figure it out. So it sat…for a long time. And then, even more embarrassment came, because I wasn’t using it and I knew that the person who gifted it to me had spent hard earned money on it and it just sat there. I decided this winter that enough was enough and I was going to figure it out. Now, I am not master but I am able to make some of my favorite things!
I love big earrings! Like love, Love, LOVE big earrings! I also hate HEAVY earrings. And this is where my Cricuit came into play. I decided to learn how to make faux leather earrings that would be big and cute and not weigh down my ears. After much trial and error, I found the perfect size and even dabbled in some creative designs! I am now in love with my Cricuit and the pieces that I can make. I can’t believe that I let my fear sit in my way for so long. What I have learned is that a little bit of knowledge goes a long way.
See ya soon!
