I have 3 children children, Donna (22), Arianne (19), and Garrett (15). My husband teaches at ISU and is a student at ISU as well. Donna is going to ISU, Arianne has been at Southern Virginia University playing softball and Garrett is a freshman at Poky High. Garrett just finished drivers training, and plays Basketball for poky high. I work at Greenacres Elementary in the library and Sierras part time. I have 2 jobs to pay for school and i love my family!
I haven't done much in the crafting department. I have made a watch and i would love to make more. The more i work at Sierras and see the neat and beautiful things that they have made and displayed, the more i want to learn how to do it all. I hope to be able to do alot of crafting, scrapbooking and beading in the future.
My Favorite products are the cuddle because it is so soft and cuddly. I also love the beads, there are so many neat and beautiful beads. I also like the vinyl and want to make many things with that as well!
