SPECIALIZING IN CROCHET AND BEADING



On this website, I will be posting pictures of my work and from time to time I will share some free patterns and tips with you.



A little bit about the author:



Hi my name is Kim and as you will see by my blog that I enjoy crafting very much, I have the liberty of working part-time at a craft store so my ideas are always refreshed.

My most enjoyable crafts are crochet and beading right now, so keep checking back to see what new things I have created.
If at anytime you are interested in purchasing one of my creations please email me and I will provide you with the costs. I do have a registered long time paypal account so all transactions are secure.

I teach crochet to those who wish to learn at a cost of $15.00/hr, I can do this either in person if you live in the GVRD area or by video phone, payment for classes accepted through paypal.com
