Hands busy ,mind focused,I like it.I'm a person who can think too much on personal relationships until I get tense, very tense. Arts and Crafts are one activity out of very few that can take My mind off of My personal relationships.
These are a few of My lastest.... An old miniature box I fixed up for My own pleasure. It started with Me learning about Frozen Charlotte Dolls and the story of Fair Charlotte that goes along with them. In one of the tiny cubbies I wanted to find a sleigh for dear sorry Charlotte.Goggle Her if You don't know about Her. I was thinking about doing a post on the legend,so many others have done so.
This paper wall hanging is My submission for the Spring blog hop with
Coffee Loving Paper Crafters.
It was perfect for Me since I do lots of paper crafting and I love coffee : )
The above plaque is for My youngest Granddaughter when She gets Her own room.
A jar full of cinnamon popperie with color combo of red and purple (My fave combo of colors).
An old Calif. dried fruit box I just fixed up for one of My daughters. A Bible verse box,with many of My fave verses in it
There are more, but enough for one post. The other activities that help Me relax and not obsess about relationships are swimming and vacationing, both with Paul My husband,as a couple of You may already know because I post on those activities too. What activity helps You mentally relax ? Tell Tell Tell. A kiss a peck and a hug around the neck to all My followers-sweet kindred spirits You are.Keep Calm-Craft On. Denise

Adorable wall hanging!
Quilting keeps me calm. I try to quilt at least 30 minutes everyday. Love craft items.
Super cute wall hanging with those adorable cups of coffee.
I can get lost in the blog world sometimes and that kind of shuts it all out. Also sewing. I love to sew and can't right now-but hope to soon.
Love your arty pieces. Diana
Wonderful card...love all you coffee images!

Good morning Denise!
Thank you for your visit and kind words.
I too love arts and crafts and you're right, they do take you away to another place where your imagination and creativity can be released.
Hope your day is a good one and filled with joy.
Have a great week!
Following you now in friendship ;)
All my heart,
Deborah

I am going to google poor little Charlotte in a few minutes!
Glad you are relaxing. Art always works. Right now I am designing a new miniature building, a modern city loft that sits at the top of an old restored factory. I haven't yet decided the city or the character who's going to live there. Every one of my miniature places has a story. I don't usually work in contemporary style. This one still has some woodsy touches, though. I'll be posting photos soon. It's taking lots of time.
We are finally thawing out here in North Carolina from the latest snow. Seven inches. Yikes. Almost gone. Details on my blog.
The goodness of God still triumphs everything! Sending blessings from here on the farm.
Good afternoon sweet Denise! I know; art is a way to keep up busy in a positive and almost healing state. Keeping active with both hands and minds is what I LOVE the most. Just thought I'd take a break from my poetry to come to say hello! Anita
What great projects!!!
lovely wall hanging!
These are all so fabulous.
You're a busy gal! I love how expressing our creativity helps us to cope with all life's woes. I believe God gave us these talents partly for this very reason. I sure hope you can find a way to nurture those relationships as well as you craft :)
Wonderful wall hanging for the Spring Coffee Lovers Bloghop! I love those different pots and cups!
Wow! You've been a buys girl! A great bunch of projects, specially that wall hanging.
Love all your projects! :)
Very sweet.
Great little percolators!
Wonderful projects. TFS
Great projects! Thanks for sharing ♥
Good evening sweetest Denise! Thank you so much for your warm morning welcome today! Make way for THE LORD every day! HUGS!!!!!!! Anita
What a cool wall hanging, Denise, but I will tell you the chimes freaked me out as I am up early in the morning commenting and I heard them a couple of times! Have a fun Tuesday and happy hopping!
Cute wall hanging; tfs.
Sweet wall hanging! Love the blues and the sweet little coffee set. Such wonderful projects too. These are just amazing. Bev
I love that you do crafts to relax. When I'm enjoying something I'm relaxed, so sometimes when I'm drawing I'm relaxed, and sometimes quite tense, lol. But making art relaxes me and also watching Netflix if we're going to be honest, haha. Hope all is well with you Denise!

How very fun my friend! I do love frozen Charlottes but don't know the history. FUN!
I have been missing you...just too busy.
Hugs,
Linda
Beautiful creations! Love your coffee wall hanging! One of my favourite colours!
Fab eye candy!
Adore your wall hanging, beautiful work! :)
these are beautiful! giveaway at my entry #275 if you're interested.
Oh neat idea to make a wall hanging for this hop!
It is a proven fact that crafting, creating is good for the soul and mind. I crochet as one thing to relieve mental stress. Reading is another thing I do to help, especially God's word. I do love to craft as you do, and have done much of it in the past. As of late I've had the hardest time starting something then sticking to completion with it. A vacation would be awesome. I pray there will be traveling in my future. Blessings dear friend ♡
What you made is wonderful, all of it. ♡
Lovely coffee wall hanging :-)
Lots of interesting photos of your favorite things too!
great project! thanks for sharing!
Wonderful creation!
Great wall hanger.
Wow- so much to look at. Love the collage effect on your wall hanging.
I love your Frozen Charlotte box - little cabinets full of treasures always catch my eye... and the wall hanging is great with that fresh teal colour. Looks as though you have your hand in lots of crafty pies, with that cinnamon jar and the altered box. Thank you so much for your visit and for signing up to follow - so very much appreciated, and I'm so happy you found some inspiration.
