Turn the New Year into a Better Year!
Get your life organized for free!
Learn how to take discards and turn it into something useful.
This month we have pattern and instructions on making storage boxes for your craft magazines.
Don't throw away those shipping boxes. Use them to bring order to your life. (Extra Hint: Use leftover gift wrap to decorate
the storage boxes you make.) Check out our new Free Stuff! Page for the pattern.
Lose weight!
If your hands are busy crafting, you won’t have time to eat. If you put your creative energy into
making a thing of beauty, you won’t want it to get greasy with chips (my own personal downfall) or stained by chocolate.
Exercise!
Haul out those stacks of books, those boxes of fabric, those unfinished kits.
By the time you have finished all that carrying (weightlifting) and shifting (aerobic walking), you will be motivated to more effort.
Rise above your daily cares!
Become a benefactor. Sort out your “stuff.” Discard the unusable. Any useful supplies you no longer
want could enrich a church youth group, a boys and girls club, or senior center.
Expand your horizons!
Share your time and skills with others. Meet new people by volunteering to share your skill.
Teach one class at a nursing home or youth center. Work one hour at the library. Call and listen to one person who is alone.
Carry a Reminder of your Blessings!
Check out our Cardian Angels in the Gift Shop. They are a small and elegant reminder that Someone is watching over you. Share one with one who is dear to you.
