Crafty

So I'm finally moving into an apartment in Victoria next week. So stoked. Pender Island is lovely, but I am ready to be in a city again. My apartment is small, but cute and bright. The neighbours seem very cool and friendly, and there are many dogs for the Finnister to hang with. I will however be internetless in the new place. It's too small to fit my huge, dying, desktop in, and too much of a hassle to get the internet installed. I'm hoping after a few months of working I'll be able to afford a nice laptop, and then get myself equipped with wireless (oh what a dream that would be!). But for the foreseeable future, the only internet I will be accessing will be at the library or when I come to my parents place.

So in preparation I've been visiting a variety of crafty sites to get some projects lined up. So far I'm going to make awesome marble magnets, knitted slippers, re-cover some of my chairs (in prep for buying some vintage-y ones for my one-day house) and some fabric wall art (to decorate the new place). Perhaps I'll finally get around to that t-shirt rug I've been thinking about doing for ages too.

It should be fun. I love when I rediscover my inner crafter!

Good luck with the move and the crafts! I'm glad to hear you found a place, especially one that's good for Finn too.
