[Nfb-krafters-korner] Want To Know Wednesday 12/6/17

Thu Dec 7 18:33:12 UTC 2017

Hi Everyone, I had a G I Joe figure that came with his own uniforms and 
gear, so, making clothes wasn't for me. Lol.
I organize and store my crafting supplies in such things as 5 drawer chests, 
or containers with tight fitting lids. I also label bags of yarn.
