Learning new crafts #learning #Cricut #Lessons #Memories #frustrations #Business #Grief #Loss #regrets

My wife and I have been working on making craft items to sell. It started with knotted friendship bracelets and bottle cap magnets, but when my mom passed away in February of 2024, I was given any of her crafting items to use for the business. Two cricuts that I barely knew how to use (I gave one away), a mug press and about a 100 mugs, with infusible ink paper and tons of vinyl, so much card making material, and a lot more that I didn't even know what it was. I'm still learning, and sometimes I get so frustrated because mom would have known how to do it, except for the mug press. She wanted me to learn how to use it and then teach her, but I kept procrastinating right through the time she had her stroke. I really hate that I never made time to do that for her, that I wanted to be so unlike her that I took away something that would have brought her joy. I learned a lesson when she passed about not wasting time, that tomorrow may never come, and I dearly wish the lesson I had learned was how to make a mug while spending time with my mom.

I've decided to open an etsy shop!

I recently got a cricut and I'm obsessed! I do have to be mindful not to overdue it though because it involves a lot of small repetitive movements with my hands. These are my first two products to sell!! These gave me lots of joy to make!!

Is there anyone in here who enjoys #sewing clothing?

Do you sew clothing? Accessories? Blankets? Purses? I, personally, love to sew retro (50’s) style dresses, and am currently making #baby clothing for my bf who just had a little girl. I also LOVE to make t shirts with my #Cricut . Any fellow seamstresses/sewers out there?
