Welcome Michelle,

If you have even the slightest bit of creativity in you, you will find a way
from within this group to release it.

I'm thinking that you are the same Michelle who I frequently cross paths
with.  Nice to see you here where it is a more positive environment than all
of that 508 and accessibility stuff that we have a love-hate relationship
with.

Annette

I  have been blind for 11 years and have gotten away from doing craft
things. However, I  keep thinking of the Holiday Wreaths we did at rehab
school. I  came up with a  idea to make a  pattern to wrap and make the bows
we affixed to the wreaths.  It turned out to be a  good  fundraising project
for the school.

Last month I  got up the nerve to put a  hanging plant on my front porch.
For years, hanging plants on the porch became a  usual site for my
neighbors. My family tells me it still lives and has blooms. I  guess I  am
returning to that creative side of me. While I  am thinking about it, I
better go an water it.
Michelle

Welcome to KK! I'm sorta new here, too. All the folks here are wonderful &
super helpful. 

What kind of crafts do you enjoy the most?   I love loom knitting & am just
now getting back into plastic canvas.
