[Nfb-krafters-korner] Extremely Dissapointed

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Barb,
 
The people on this list all have been great with helping other folks learn  
new crafts.  The teachers have done extra one on one teaching with  
individual students and even the other folks here are willing to contact you off  
list or via phone to help you with crafting.  
 
I am always on the search for new teachers to teach a craft and be able to  
put into words so the folks here can follow it.

Susan,  I'm in SW Missouri and am still exploring the craft world, so far 
I've  done a couple of cement stepping stones, made a gazing ball from a 
bowling  ball and flat marbles, just did my first safety pin beading kit. 
These I  have really enjoyed so far, am curious about pottery, weaving, 
mosaics,  basically I'd love to explore the different options.
Stenciling might be  fun, decoupage (except for cutting out pictures by 
hand), maybe working  with looms, its hard to decide until I have a chance 
to 
try them, but as  previously stated, I don't want to invest alot into 
supplies and find I  don't enjoy it.

I live in the boonies, so not much option for hands-on  learning.
