Well, if anyone knows me, they know that there was a period of time in my life when I collected craft kits--and I don't just mean a few. I used to hit the after-Christmas sales and the thrift stores. I bought so many kits that I had at least 5 tubs full. Large Rubbermaid tubs!!
Yes, I did a lot of crafts over the years. I loved cross stitch and embroidery. And when these kits were so cheap, it was worth it.
But life happened. I was in an unhappy marriage. I taught full-time. My daughter came along. And now I just don't have the time to these. And my daughter will do some of them, but she is very active. Crafts are fun, but she would rather play a video game or just run and jump.
So I decided it was time to get rid of some of these kits. I've gotten rid of a lot over the years. But I still have some. You can see in the picture that I am giving away 7 kits. They are probably about 5-10 years old, but they have not been opened. Most of these kits are no longer made by their companies. I know that many of you are very crafty, and you could use these.
I will post a few more pictures so you can see them up close.
Interested? Well, I hope many of you are. I would much rather give these to my wonderful readers rather than try to sell them on ebay. (I used to do that--I just don't have the time!)

Wow, 5 big totes full is a lot! I enjoy scrap booking and making jewelery. I'd love to learn how to sew though.

I'll be using the kits. Maybe when my daughter gets older she can help me out and we can do crafts together.
ReplyDeleteI love making hair bows and I've even been blessed enough to make it into a side business!
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteI would probably take the kits and let some of my speech kiddos at school use them! It would be a fun following directions task!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy making ornaments & cards!

When I was pretty young, around 7, my grandmother taught me how to knit. And ever since then it's been a hobby of mine. I used to make everyone scarfs for their birthdays and Christmas.
ReplyDeleteSomething I'd love to do is learn how to crochet.
