Hey everybody! I thought it would be interesting to post pics of the other hobbies you do! Im working on a planter box for my parents and thought I would post what I had done so far! I am interested to see what else everybody else does!

oh wow those are nice!!!!!! hmmm.. let me see.. you think it would be wise to show off dust and dirty dishes.. LOL with the kids being home for spring break that seems like all I do right now.. haha
I scrapbook. will get pics of some of my favorite pages..

Beautiful!

Those are really nice! Awsome job on both!!

Well since i don't hav a picxture, i'll jsut say! LOL I need a picture though. I do achery and some freelance artwork as my other hobbys. Archery is definately the best.

Those are gorgeous, I wish I had the talent to make something like that!

Mostly I just knit, tat and crochet.

I'll knit just about anything, but I specialize in lace crochet, I love making doilies, and go on snowflake sprees during the winter. Here are a few pictures...

A small doily used as a toper for a gift in a jar, I made a ton of these in different colours for Yule.



little tatted bits I put in cards to everybody for Yule.



knit baby set for a good friend I made a few years ago.



and my favorite, a knit teddy bear, she is soo soft and cuddly! I just made another one for a pregnant friend, I'm mailing it out tomorrow!

What do you mean you wish you had talent, your pictures are awesome!!!! Those doillies are beautiful! I love the color scheme in the first pic! I cannot knit, crochet or do any of that stuff, tried to, CANNOT!!!

Beautiful work girls! Meghan, I see you are good at mosaics on and off cakes! Alien, I admire anyone who can crochet/knit! I don't have the patience. I've tried! That is a labor of love!

But somehow I can manage to do okay with a hammer and saw. Here are some before and after pics of my kitchen remodel. I did it all by myself! (I'm a little proud of myself; can you tell?) Repainted; changed out hinges/hardware; built a new bar area; added some cabs; beadboard to back of open cabinets; replaced wood shelves with glass... The bar is still standing! Not in order but you can figure out the befores and afters. Cabinets were dark wood in the beginning and I needed light!

Here is one of my paintings.
Sorry the jpg is so small. o well.

dang, liked MY pic so much i changed my avatar to it. (struggled before to reduce one to size and as you saw didn't have very good luck with it).

Lisa, you did an AMAZING job on your kitchen, im jealous!!!!! Hey Chaptlps, your painting looks awesome, even though it is tiny!

I play in a brass band and this weekend we're off to our National Championships

Pumpkin carving for me

I love to sew and garden, my obsessive hobbies.....now I have cake decorating to add to it! I also crochet. I would say 95% of all my plants I start from seed.....love the process! As far as sewing, I have done 1 wedding gown, 2 wedding parties, several formal dresses.....sew for everyone but myself as I never have the time! LOL!!!

I've posted these pics on here before in a thread on this same topic but seeing as how it's going around again I figure I'll show them again

omg everyone is so talented! All I do is the everyday stuff like scrapbooking & taking photos. Kudos to all of you!

I like to carve pumpkins too. Here are my most recent ones.

I like to do a lot of different things (knit, crochet, scrapbook, woodworking) but gardening is one of my favorites. It is hard though because we move about every 2 years so it takes a while to get the gardens nice especially if they have been neglected, which my current ones were when we moved in but here are a few photos of them last summer and hopefully this summer they will be even better - though we are moving in july Oh well on to more challenges!!

well instead of taking up space on here I already have a small webpage that has all my crafts that I have done while in Germany and a tad bit here....
